Stop Bird Collisions In Fort Worth Properties With Window Film

Birds strikes on highrise windows and even homes occur quite often. In fact, these run-ins take the lives of more than one billion birds each year. They are more than just harmful to birds–they are bad for the environment too–drastically slashing the bird populations across the US. They wreck windows too. Sometimes resulting in difficult and expensive repairs. Here in the Fort Worth area, building owners and managers are the ones responsible for mitigating damage from bird strikes. There are several ways to decrease these horrible run-ins. And, one of the most effective methods is with bird strike window films. These advanced window films work better than other methods such as netting, decals, or lighting reduction. Bird strikes are greatly reduced, if not eliminated once these films are installed on the windows of a high-rise building. 

How Bird Collision Window Films work

When birds smash into windows, it is the result of a case of mistaken identity. Birds perceive windows as open-air rather than solid objects because of the reflection on the glass of the windows and the objects they can see behind them. In order to make windows appear like a solid object utilizing bird strike, window film is essential. The way these films function is through a grid-like pattern of small dots embedded on the film. The pattern is arranged so that the bird will not try to fly through the spaces in the dots. This means birds see the pattern as something like a fence or net and fly around the windows rather than try to fly through it. This preserves the lives of the birds and keeps the window of your Fort Worth building free of damage. Stopping these collisions also saves you money and the time of repairs. Another fantastic thing about bird strike window film is it comes with many of the same benefits as regular window film: UV-blocking, insulation, and glare reduction.
