SafetyShield 1500 with 4-sided FrameGard anchoring
Window film applied conventionally is a daylight application. It is cut to the visible edge of the glass, so the strip of glass that sits under the frame is never covered, and a filmed pane with an untreated edge can be levered out of its frame in one piece.
FrameGard clamps the film mechanically into the frame on all four sides, so the load runs from the glass, through the film, into the frame and into the building. That is the difference between a pane that holds and a pane that is removed intact.
