Middle School

Location:  Sandy Hook Region

The Challenge

Active shooter threats have created a new problem requiring technologies that help “keep the bad guy outside” without making  the school look like a fortified prison.

Custom made DefenseLite panels are architectural grade polycarbonate ‘clear shields’ that  install onto or over your existing window and door frames creating a ‘forcefield’ of protection.

The Solution

WFD recommended and installed DefenseLite retrofit panels in order to reinforce the existing glass and provide for substantial forced entry protection

Duration: One week

The Result

Entrances at this school are now protected from forced entry and the system is unobtrusive. DefenseLite performs far better than security window film options and is more practical and durable than replacement glazing systems.

World of Coca-Cola

The natural light filled Coke Museum in Atlanta created a situation where excessive UV exposure on precious items required a sun screen for the massive curtainwall of glass.

The 20K square feet of 3M film was installed after hours and required the use of a ‘spider lift’ to access the upper rows of the atrium glass.
