Advanced Film Solutions has completed more than 25,500 homes and business window film installations since we left 3M 16 years ago.
One of the more surprising aspects of our home installations has been the volume of homes that have single pane clear glass on their front entry door and a thin glass side lite running vertically adjacent to the door handle and lock.
The majority of our clients ask us to fix their heat problems , glare and UV fading .
For homes with clear glass on the front doors we recommend an application of safety and security film by Vista.
- The application of these 8 ML thick security films makes it much more difficult for thieves to enter your home.
- Tinted versions can provide privacy from the street.
- Opaque versions can be installed that provide 24/7 privacy
- Sliders can be reinforced with these thicker security films as well as a pool bath door.
Safety and security films will not interfere with motion detectors or window alarm systems.
Glass with LLumar® Solar Safety and Security Film has an extra layer of protection that reinforces windows and helps hold dangerous glass shards together if shattered. It helps protect against multiple safety and security threats:

Tampa, Orlando Security Window Film, 2023
Whether you operate your own business at one of Tampa or Orlando’s office parks, or own your own retail store, it’s critical for your security planning to harden the glass at your building.
Advanced Film Solutions provides thicker (impact rated and tested) glazing window film manufactured by global leaders Eastman Chemical, Saint-Gobain and Madico.
These coatings protect our armed forces and diplomats throughout the world and domestically they are employed on Federal buildings state and municipalities and the leading retail chain stores.
There are scores of choices that cover a wide range of light transmissions and appearances.
Many retailers prefer a completely transparent coating that eliminates UV without lowering light levels.
Obviously consideration should be given to multi-purpose solar security versions that reduce heat, glare and UV while offering the very same level of security protection as the clear versions.
Reflective security coatings will provide daytime privacy which can be critically important.
Lightly tinted versions help offset installation costs since they lower electric cooling costs and qualify for local utility window film rebates.
These coatings have met GSA and DoD blast testing and impact intrusion testing.
Additional security strength can be obtained with an array of fastening systems that create a uniform system between the glass, store frames and our impact coatings.
