Presented by:

Houses of worship should be the safest places in the world. And yet, they have become a prime target for domestic terrorists, active shooters, and demented criminal rampages. Buildings filled with love are being targeted by hate. To counteract and prevent unnecessary massacres, building perimeter security must take precedence.

But where should you start? 

At the most vulnerable point of entry: glass doors and windows.

As seen in the Sandy Hook and Nashville school shootings, glass doors and window are easily breached. What’s more, they pose a significant risk to life during bomb blasts and natural disasters when broken shards become airborne.

Join our upcoming webinar to learn how to:

• Delay or deny a perpetrator from entering through glass doors or windows
• Understand the difference between security film, polycarbonate, and ballistic glass
• Assess your building(s) vulnerabilities based on the Federal Government’s zoned approach

Plus, learn about possible grant funding and be one of the first-ever to learn about 3M’s newest innovation in glazing security!
