Keeping Vancouver Businesses Safe
Vancouver businesses face break-ins and vandalism every day. From Kitsilano shops to Richmond offices, everyone worries about security. Empire Graphic Installers can help you protect your clients property with security film installation. Security film can prevent someone from entering your property but one thing is for certain the film does NOT make your windows bulletproof. If you are interested in exploring this solution for your business lets discuss the benefits and see if its a good fit for your needs.
Smart Protection for Lower Mainland Businesses
Most buildings in Metro Vancouver have lots of windows. Windows look nice but they’re easy to break. Security film changes that. It’s a clear film that goes on your existing windows. You can’t even see it’s there. But it makes glass much stronger. Empire Graphic Installers knows exactly how to install this film. We’ve helped businesses from Gastown to Surrey feel safer. The film works great whether you’re in busy downtown or quieter areas like Tsawwassen.
More Than Just Security
Security film does many good things for Vancouver businesses. It stops break-ins, sure. But it also holds glass together if it breaks. This protects people from getting hurt. The film blocks harmful sun rays too. This stops furniture and products from fading. Empire Graphic Installers helps businesses get all these benefits. Our team knows what works best for Vancouver’s weather and buildings.
Types of Security Film We Install
Films That Stop Break-ins
Empire Graphic Installers puts special film on windows to stop thieves. The film comes in different thicknesses. Thicker film gives more protection. When someone tries to break the window, the glass stays together. The film holds it in place. Thieves can’t get through easily. This gives time for police to arrive.
Vancouver stores use this film on:
- Front windows facing the street
- Back doors and windows
- Ground floor glass
- Display windows with expensive items
- Any glass that’s easy to reach
The film is totally clear. Customers can still see in. You can still see out. But the windows are much safer.
Safety Films for Accidents
Sometimes windows break by accident. Maybe a ball hits them. Maybe someone falls against them. Empire Graphic Installers installs safety film that protects people when this happens. The film keeps broken glass from flying around. All the pieces stick to the film instead. This stops bad cuts and injuries.
Places that really need safety film:
- Schools in Vancouver
- Rec centres and community centres
- Hospitals and clinics
- Busy offices
- Restaurants and cafes
British Columbia also has earthquakes sometimes. Safety film helps protect windows during shaking. It’s smart protection for any Vancouver building.
Extra Strong Films for Banks and Government Buildings
Some places need super strong protection. Empire Graphic Installers installs special thick films for these buildings. These films can handle really big impacts. They protect against explosions and extreme force. While Vancouver is pretty safe, some buildings still want this protection.
These strong films work for:
- Banks and credit unions
- Government offices
- Police stations
- Important business headquarters
- Anywhere needing top security
How We Install Security Film
First, We Check Your Windows
Every job starts with looking at your windows. Empire Graphic Installers checks what kind of glass you have. We look at the window frames. We figure out what film works best. Different buildings need different solutions. A Yaletown boutique needs different film than a warehouse in Port Coquitlam. We help you pick the right protection for your needs and budget.
Installing Film the Right Way
Putting on security film takes skill. Empire Graphic Installers does it perfectly. First, we clean the windows really well. Then we carefully apply the film. We make sure there are no bubbles. We seal all the edges properly. The temperature has to be just right. Too hot or too cold can cause problems. Vancouver’s weather changes a lot, so we know when to install for best results.
Our installation process:
- Clean windows until they’re perfect
- Measure and cut film exactly
- Apply film smoothly without bubbles
- Squeeze out all water and air
- Seal edges so they won’t peel
- Let film cure properly
Making Film Extra Secure
For maximum protection, film needs special attachments. Empire Graphic Installers adds these to make film even stronger. We attach the film to the window frame. This stops the whole window from falling out if hit hard. It’s like adding a seat belt to your windows. Vancouver businesses that want top security always get these attachments.

Extra Benefits You Get
Protection from Sun Damage
Vancouver gets strong sun in summer. The sun fades everything it touches. Security film blocks 99% of harmful UV rays. Empire Graphic Installers installs film that protects your stuff.
The film saves:
- Store products from fading
- Office furniture from sun damage
- Artwork and posters
- Carpets and flooring
- Even protects people’s skin
This saves money because things last longer. Your store looks better. Products stay looking new.
Anti-Graffiti Protection
Vandalism is a problem in some Vancouver areas. Taggers damage windows with scratching and paint but there are speciality films that offer a solution to this. These anti graffiti films are manufactured to naturally repel inks, markers and paints. This means that someone may try to tag or spraypaint but because of the nature of the film the paint doesnt bond to the film very well.
Privacy Options
Some security films give privacy too. Empire Graphic Installers can install films that are like mirrors during the day. People outside can’t see in. But you can still see out. This works great for:
- Street-level offices on busy Vancouver streets
