New Mandates Require Schools to Install Ballistic Glass for Enhanced Protection
OREM, UT, UNITED STATES, December 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — With crime rates rising and the risk of break-ins prevalent, states across the country are now mandating that schools install security measures such as bulletproof glass in their buildings. Ballistic glass is the leading building material that is far stronger than security film or impact glass, ensuring the students inside are safe from outside harm.
“It’s a great comfort to know that students can be protected even through the weakest point in the classroom. The windows.” Says former elementary teacher Kaylee Long, “I’d want to mandate it to ensure the safety of the kids.”
States such as Utah and Texas have already mandated window safety protocols, requiring ballistic glass or security film to be installed in all the schools and their classrooms. Several more states are making this standard mandatory in the coming year. 2025 is the year installations for security windows will become more prevalent.
“We know school threats are getting more intense because we are getting contacted by school and state officials every day regarding the matter,” says Quin Denning, CEO of Armitek LLC, a leading manufacturer of ballistic glass.
Ballistic glass companies such as Armitek LLC are preparing to install glass in hundreds of schools requiring the new security standards. With the need rising exponentially among the bulletproof glass industry, glass companies are backordered on fulfilling needs on time. Schools are jumping ahead to get their glass ordered now so they can exceed the standard before deadlines are up.
