Safety is one of those things that’s easy to take for granted. On a day to day basis, your neighborhood seems like a safe place. Your neighbors are friendly and there’s never any sign of crime – like graffiti ridden walls or suspicious individuals hanging out in the alleys. But then one of your neighbors has their house broken into and it’s a sudden wake up call. You start to wonder, how safe is your neighborhood really?
Installing security window film for your San Francisco home is a proactive way to protect your property and your family. Not only does it protect your house from break ins, but it can also ward off other dangers too like earthquake damage, flooding, and accidents.
In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps of how to get started with installing it for your home.
How to Successfully Protect Your Home with Security Window Film
Once you’ve made the decision to install security window film for your San Francisco home, it’s time to get started with the installation process. Just follow these quick, easy steps and you’ll be on your way to enjoying a safer space for you and your family.
- Make a Plan
Survey your home and identify all the areas that are a potential safety hazard. Think critically. What areas have you overlooked? Do you have windows near your pool or in your kitchen that are a slip and fall hazard? Or are the windows in the front a big concern because you have kids that play outside in the yard? Make a list of all the areas that come to mind so that you can talk to them about the technician prior to the install.
- Find a Tinting Pro
Search online or ask around for a tinting pro in your area. Don’t just hire the guy with the lowest price. Find someone who is qualified to install architectural film, and is also licensed and insured.
- Schedule a Consultation
Finally, it’s time to pick out a security window film. Schedule a consultation with your technician to discuss different options. There are lots of security films out there with varying strength and appearance. Some are clear, others are tinted. Some are ballistic resistant, others are more along the lines of a standard film. Explore your options before making a final decision.
