Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

For the country’s 9th busiest airport terminal, Commercial Window Shield was asked to protect more than 3,000 panes of glass at the Gina Maria Lindsey Arrivals Hall, which is adjacent to the main terminal.

Commercial Window Shield was hired by the renovation project’s general contractor, Osborne Construction Co. of Kirkland, Wash. Osborne chose the company over a number of other security window installation firms because of its considerable experience. Previously, Commercial Window Shield installed shatter resistant window film at Terminal 1 at O’Hare International Airport, the country’s third busiest airport.

The project called for 8-mil shatter resistant window film with a wet glaze attachment system to be installed on more than 80,000 square feet of hard-to-reach glass in a crowded, busy environment. As often is the case when Commercial Window Shield takes on an intricate project, the company developed a unique and precise installation plan based on its own engineering calculations. In total, we protected more than 3,000 panes of glass and completed the project to the satisfaction of Osborn and the Port of Seattle, which manages the airport.
