Burglars hate being caught.
Delay entry, and even a professional burglar will flee and look for an easier target.

Repeated blows from a baseball bat could not get past this door coated with security laminateWhen you install Ace Clear Inc.’s security laminate glass coatings, you take away a thief’s easiest points of entry. When laminate-treated glass is broken, the sheet of security laminate and the anchoring system hold the glass fragments in place, creating a solid barrier. This smashed-glass barrier dissipates the force of any further blows, denying the burglar entry.

Used in conjunction with alarm systems and good locks, window security laminates provide effective protection for your home, business, or industrial facility. While nothing can guarantee to keep criminals out of your home or business, eliminating the speed and ease of entry that they rely on is usually enough to keep you from becoming their next victim.

Ace Clear Inc.’s security laminates turn your vulnerable glass into “invisible walls”. Our security laminates will help you to protect:

  • existing and new glass
  • doors, basement windows, garage windows—everywhere that glass is a possible point of entry
  • homes, offices, retail stores, commercial & industrial properties, churches, hotels, etc.
  • police cars, executive vehicles, private automobiles, and buses
  • government buildings

Ace Clear Inc. security laminates are manufactured from 2,3, or 4 layers of flexible polyester film, bonded together to form virtually invisible scratch-resistant coatings. The laminated glass can be safely cleaned with any non-abrasive glass cleaner.

Unlike burglar bars, Ace Clear Inc. security laminates are virtually invisible. Best of all, your sliding and catch-style windows will still open normally after the security laminate is applied, so you’re not trapped inside your building the way you would be with ugly burglar bars.

A single break-in can equal:

  • damage to carpets & furniture from broken glass
  • possible weather damage
  • expensive & unsightly boarding up
  • losses not covered by insurance (e.g. heirlooms and sentimental possessions)
  • downtime
  • lost data
  • lost peace of mind through stress and feelings of violation & vulnerability
  • increased insurance premiums

Which half of this clear glass is coated? Ace Clear Inc. security laminates can help eliminate all of the above. Since the film usually survives the attack intact, you won’t have to arrange temporary boarding-up to protect the building’s contents until the glass can be replaced.

Several thicknesses of security laminate are available. Our thickest security laminate (SL 20), the world’s first 4-ply security laminate, even offers significant bullet and bomb resistance (no glass is completely bullet-proof).

To help protect your carpets and other valuables from fading or solar damage, all our security laminate products provide 98-99% UV reduction. They also create a 1R insulation effect that helps reduce your heating bills.

The laminates are available in clear, silver, and matte. If you’d like other colors, simply have a tint film installed on top of the safety film. All our security laminates carry a limited lifetime warranty against discoloration, peeling, cracking, and delaminating.

Ace Clear Inc. security laminates are cost-effective glass protection. Many home and business installations have cost less than the deductible on our customer’s insurance!

Safety Films: Protect Yourself From Glass Breakage

Whether it’s caused by a stray tree branch or a vandal, broken glass is dangerous. Broken window and door glass can result in:

  • injury to people
  • glass damage to drapes and carpets
  • weather damage (what if it’s raining when the window breaks?)
  • opportunistic access for vandals and thieves

Ace Clear Inc.’s safety films are ideal for protecting your glass from accidental damage. If the glass breaks, the ACE safety film holds the fragments in place, providing a barrier against entry and the elements until you can have the glass replaced. This drastically reduces the costs associated with cleanup: securing the area, repairing weather damage, replacing glass-damaged carpet, etc. No boarding-up is required, since the film remains intact almost every time.

All our safety film products provide 98-99% UV reduction to help protect your carpets and other valuables from fading or solar damage. The films also create a 1R insulation effect, to help reduce heating bills.
