3M School Security Film Case Study Summary
One of the best ways to understand the power of window film in a Fort Worth school setting is to look at its real-life applications. Case studies are a way to do this. They allow you to understand how and why window film was used in actual educational situations. The school security window film case study below is an excellent example of how window film can be used to protect students in Fort Worth and across the country.
3M School Security Window Film Case Study Situation
Protection from active shooters has become a high priority for schools across the US. Since glass windows and doors are the weakest points of security, they should be reinforced before anything else. Sadly, Jewish organizations need to be extra vigilant regarding security threats. This is why a security consultant (and former FBI agent) advised Jewish schools in Cincinnati to seek window film solutions to gun and bomb threats.

The search for better security measures led the Jewish Schools to decide on window film as a solution. They chose 3M™ Scotchshield™ Safety & Security Window Film because it appeared to be the best choice for cost and efficacy. An impact-resistant window film system was then installed in a local Jewish school. It included a specialty adhesive to hold broken glass together if hit by a bullet. This type of 3M system also stops anyone trying to break into the school through a window.
3M School Security Window Film Case Study Results
The results were impressive. The school reports that they love the fact that the film is virtually invisible, so potential attackers would never know it was there. It turned out to be the most cost-effective and powerful solution to secure the building’s glass windows and doors too. The best part is that now students and staff have peace of mind knowing their school is adequately protected against gun violence.
