Safety Meets Aesthetics With Our Impact-Resistant Storefront Glass
At times, aesthetics and safety seem at odds in design; but that needn’t be the case! When Murrieta Glass are combined with aesthetic elements, they can create a safe yet pleasing product that meets all needs. One such example is our Anti Ligature TV Cabinet; with its sleek profile making it less likely that ligatures will attach themselves. Another is our Tough Furniture line designed to lower risk by including sloping sides and tops that help prevent attachment of ligatures to hospital beds – helping keep patients out of hospital beds!
Impact-resistant windows and doors are essential in areas prone to hurricanes or other extreme weather events, making impact-resistant glass windows and doors an absolute necessity for homeowner in these regions. Constructed using laminated and tempered glasses strengthened to resist heavy impacts as well as polyvinyl butyral (PVB), impact resistant windows can withstand both direct hits as well as debris flying in a storm without shattering.
Impact-resistant windows and doors not only protect homes from storm debris, they also offer other advantages that standard glass cannot match. Impact resistant windows and doors are more energy-efficient due to additional layers of impact glass acting to insulate and block outside heat from entering your home.
Impact glass is stronger than standard float glass and will not shatter into sharp shards when broken – an advantage particularly valuable during stormy conditions, where broken pieces of regular glass could pose significant threats to those within your home. Furthermore, impact-resistant glass provides an effective deterrent against forced entries due to its thicker glass and sturdy laminations which make it extremely hard for intruders to break or bend it – check Google for videos showing impact glass withstanding abuse from baseball bats or even sledgehammers!
