Coffee, with a little holiday spirit.
Bat: Film Bros field experience. 8 mil security film held for about 25 hits and 14 mil for about 35 (14 mil inside plus 7 mil outside, about 55). Rock and crowbar are estimates from those results: a sharp crowbar point gets through sooner, a thrown rock takes longer. Results vary with the glass, frame, attachment and attack.
About this demonstration
Film helps hold broken glass together. Structural silicone bonds the filmed glass to the frame as part of a correctly specified security installation. Actual performance depends on the glass, film, framing, attachment and installation. This animation uses deliberately different tap sequences to explain the system; it is not a test result.
4 mil is shown as a safety-film comparison. Film Bros security options here include structural attachment. Film thickness alone does not determine forced-entry performance.
