Window Security Film

For Your Safety & Security

You want to make sure your home is safe and secure, but you want to balance that with a welcoming environment, too. Putting security bars on all the windows will definitely help keep your home burglar-proof, but they won’t help with curb appeal. Home window security film is the perfect compromise between form and function.

Home window security film can be added to sliding glass doors and windows to add another layer of protection to your home. When used with other measures, such as window locks, window films will give thieves one more thing to deal with before trying to break in.

Armorcoat Safety & Home Window Security Film – Added protection for your family.

Protect your family!
Pacific Window Tinting is the area’s exclusive dealer of Armorcoat Safety & Security films. Armorcoat is the world’s most respected name in security films and is used in thousands of federal buildings and military bases around the world. If Armorcoat can protect the Pentagon, it can protect your home!

Why would you need this kind of protection for your home? You tell me, what is the most important thing in your life…YOUR FAMILY! This is a clear film that is installed directly onto your windows. Once installed, it makes your windows almost impenetrable.

This extra-thick film will hold fast and keep window shards together when struck by an object. After attempting to break the window a few times and the glass is still held in place by the window frame, that could provide enough of a deterrent to make the ne’er-do-well turn around and find somewhere else to break in.

Here are a few ways Armorcoat could be used to protect your home:

  • Slows/Deters thieves from breaking and entering your home.
  • Protect patio doors from breaking and injuring children at play
  • Golf balls or the neighbor kids baseball from flying through your window
  • Flying shards of glass during an earthquake

Other Home Window Security Film Benefits

Home security window films go beyond acting as a deterrent for potential thieves, however. In the Pacific Northwest, we get true four-season weather and the occasional natural disaster. This means the occasional storm that brings high winds, triple-digit weather, and freezing temperatures.

This could lead to debris blowing into a window, a skylight cracking due to heat, or tree branches cracking and falling through a window. If something does cause your window to break, you won’t need to worry about shards of glass or a big clean-up job.

The thicker films will hold the broken glass together to make picking up the mess that much easier. So instead of flying glass getting everywhere, everything can be held together by the adhesive protective film. And you won’t have to worry about accidentally stepping on razor-sharp bits and pieces of shattered glass.

Home window security film installation will also help keep things safe from the occasional errant throw when playing catch in the backyard with the kids. Window film can be applied to all glass windows, including sliding glass doors, glass shower doors, and even mirrors!

Privacy Tinting

A big part of security is privacy – if crooks don’t know what’s in your home, they won’t take the risk of breaking in. Installing security window film with tinting will ensure your belongings can’t be seen from the street or even closer in some cases. This can be especially important if you work from home and have important client information.

Window tinting can also protect your furniture, flooring, and other surfaces from fading over time. By blocking the UV rays of the sun, window tinting can also help with sun control and cooling costs in the summer. Depending on the level of tinting, you’ll still be able to get some of the natural light into your home during the day.

We can add tinting to double-hung windows, ceiling-to-floor windows, and any other type of windows you may have. We can also add tinting or frosted window tint to glass shower doors for additional privacy while bathing. This is also a safety precaution in case the shower door gets broken for any reason.

Work with Home Window Security Film Professionals

Sure, you can add window bars, motion sensor lights, security cameras, and other security systems to turn your home into a fortress. If that seems like overkill and a lot of work, contact us to see how home window security film will add a measure of safety and security without turning your home into Fort Knox.

For more than two decades, Pacific Window Tinting has been providing window security film installation for homes, businesses, and other facilities. With professional installation, you won’t have to worry about those air bubbles that ruin the appearance and decrease the effectiveness of the product.

In addition to security window film, we also provide custom graphics, graffiti protection, and glare control window films. Designed films can be applied to almost any smooth, flat surface to improve the aesthetics of your lobby, waiting rooms, or even your home.

Why spend more to add etching to your windows or get specially made glass for your home or business? Let Pacific Window Tinting show you how Armorcoat can protect your family! We’ll install the film or window tint you need to provide an extra layer of protection and elegance to your windows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does home security window film actually do?

Security film reinforces glass so it’s much harder to shatter. If struck, the film helps hold the glass together in its frame, slowing intruders and preventing dangerous shards from scattering. It’s an invisible layer of protection that keeps your family safer and your home more secure.

How strong is Armorcoat® Safety & Security Film?
Armorcoat® is one of the most trusted security films in the world—used in federal buildings, embassies, and even the Pentagon. The film is extra-thick, optically clear, and designed to resist impact from break-ins, debris, and accidents. If it can protect high-security facilities, it can protect your home.

Can security window film help during storms or earthquakes?

Absolutely. In the Pacific Northwest, windstorms and small quakes can cause branches or debris to strike windows. Security film helps keep glass fragments together, making cleanup safer and protecting against injury or damage inside your home.

How does privacy tinting improve security?

Privacy tinting prevents outsiders from easily seeing into your home. When valuables or electronics aren’t visible, break-ins are less likely. This type of film also blocks glare and harmful UV rays—an added benefit for comfort and energy efficiency.

Does security window film also reduce heat or UV rays?

Absolutely. Many Armorcoat® and tinted security films block up to 99% of UV rays and help reflect solar heat. You’ll enjoy greater safety, privacy, and comfort—all while protecting your furnishings and lowering cooling costs in the summer.

We used Pacific Window tinting for both a tint and a security film on two buildings. They came out and had us a quote very quickly and when we were ready to move forward they got us scheduled very quickly. The team that came out was wonderful to work with. They were very professional and cleaned up after themselves. Overall we are very happy with our experience and will use them again if needed. I highly recommend them.

For over a year we had been deciding what to do with some of our upper level windows. We get a strong sunset that can be blinding for about half of the year. We reached out to Jared and his team at Pacific Window Tinting, he provided us with several samples and assessed our need as well as our budget, he made a couple of recommendations to meet our needs. He delivered an excellent product, in a short period of time at great prices while ensuring excellent customer service. We are finally able to enjoy the beautiful sunshine while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the architecture. Highly recommended.

Our waiting room at our clinic was much hotter than the rest of our clinic so we consulted with the owner, he gave some great suggestions and in a week or so we had the front windows and doors tinted, took a few hours, now it is much cooler! My front desk staff does not feel hot nor do patients in my waiting room. Thank you!
