Commercial Case Study

Golf Town Oakville: 14 Mil Security Film on the Storefront

Oakville, ONRetail StorefrontOctober 2026

Golf Town’s Oakville store has a full wall of ground-floor glass facing the parking lot. The store wanted stronger protection for that glass without changing how the storefront looks. We installed XPEL VISION Security Clear 14 mil, our thickest clear security film, on every front-facing window in one visit.

The Problem

A Full Wall of Storefront Glass

Large storefront glass is the easiest way into a store for a smash-and-grab. At Golf Town Oakville, the entire ground-floor front is glass, and it faces the parking lot.

  • Ground-floor glass along the full storefront
  • Facing the parking lot, an easy target for a smash-and-grab
  • The store wanted protection without changing how the storefront looks
The GoalProtect the glass. Keep the storefront looking exactly the same.

What We Did

Edge-to-Edge 14 Mil Clear Security Film

We installed XPEL VISION Security Clear 14 mil edge to edge on every front-facing pane, working from the inside of the store. The film is fully clear, so the displays and the view in and out look exactly the same.

  2. 02

    Laying the Sheet

    Each sheet goes on the inside face of the glass, pane by pane.

  3. 03

    Squeegee Pass

    The film is pressed flat against the glass for a clear, even finish.

  4. 04

    Trimming at the Frame

    Edges are trimmed at the frame so the film covers the pane edge to edge.

Anchored to the frame

Every security film is attached to the frame with DOW 995 structural sealant.

Security film holds broken glass together. Bonding the film to the frame with DOW 995 structural silicone sealant keeps that glass anchored in the opening, so a broken pane stays in place instead of falling in as one sheet. It is part of every security film installation we do.

The Result

Glass That Holds Together, With No Change to the Look

If the glass is struck, the film holds the broken pieces together instead of letting them fall out.

That slows down anyone trying to get through and keeps shards off the floor. Customers still see the same bright, open storefront. Learn more about our commercial security window film for retail and office buildings.

Good to knowsecurity film slows a break-in. It does not make glass break-in proof, but it buys time and makes the storefront a much harder target.

FAQ

Storefront Security Film Questions

Have a question about your own storefront? Request a free quote and we’ll walk you through your options.

Does security window film make a storefront break-in proof?

No. Security film slows a break-in. When the glass is struck, the film holds the broken pieces together, which slows down anyone trying to get through and keeps shards off the floor.

Will security film change how my storefront looks?

Not with XPEL VISION Security Clear 14 mil. It is fully clear, so displays and the view in and out look the same.

Is the film installed on the inside or outside of the glass?

On this project, the film was installed on the inside of every front-facing window.

How long does a storefront installation take?

The Golf Town Oakville storefront was completed in one visit.
