Discover the Role Security Film Plays in Protecting Schools
Delaying Intruders When Minutes Count
The Texas Education Agency's School Safety Standards rule requires that glass doors, as well as windows on the ground level that are large enough to allow someone to enter if broken, must be reinforced with entry-resistant film. While this security film is not bulletproof, it does offer some significant benefits in terms of security.
As windows are vulnerable points of entry, any measure designed to slow down an intruder can give students and staff some extra time to find a safe place. Here, we'll explore why the TEA went so far as to mandate its application and the benefits it brings to school security in Amarillo, TX.
