The Challenge

The district needed a solution that would:

Strengthen all glass entry doors against break-ins
Delay forced entry without changing the look of the entrances
Provide long-term durability with minimal maintenance

Our Solution

Tri-State Window Tinting applied clear Solar Guard security film to all entry doors and paired it with the Pentagon attachment system—a specialized anchoring method that secures the glass to the frame.
This combination creates a reinforced barrier that holds the glass in place under heavy impact, significantly slowing down intrusion attempts

Results

The installation was completed efficiently and without disruption to daily school operations. The doors retained their natural look while gaining a vital layer of protection. The district now benefits from:

A stronger, more secure entry system
Enhanced protection for students and staff
Peace of mind knowing that security risks have been reduced

Outcome

Tri-State’s work provided a discreet but powerful security upgrade, helping the district achieve a safer campus environment without compromising aesthetics.
