Vaughan has grown quickly, and the glass in its homes has grown with it: wide front windows, glass sidelights and big rear patio doors. Window Armour has spent over 15 years fitting clear security film to that glass for families in Woodbridge, Maple, Thornhill, Concord and Kleinburg. The film holds a smashed pane together, so a break-in attempt takes far longer and draws far more attention. It is virtually invisible, needs no permit, and most homes are finished in a day.
Alarms and cameras tell you something has happened. Security film slows it down while it is happening. Ground-floor windows, sidelights and patio doors are common entry points in residential break-ins, and Vaughan’s larger detached homes tend to have plenty of them. A reinforced pane that will not give way after repeated blows can be enough to make an intruder walk away.
