CHARLOTTE, N.C. – HITT Construction has hired Commercial Window Shield for a safety and security window film installation project for the U.S. Citizen and Immigration Service in Charlotte.
The project involves installing .7-mil shatter resistant window film with a wet glaze attachment system on all exterior windows on the two floors USCIS occupies in its field office building. HITT is renovating the two floors.
Commercial Window Shield installers will work closely with HITT contractors to schedule its fragment retention window film installation. The security film installation is a requirement by the General Services Administration, which acts as the landlord for federal tenants leasing space in privately-owned office buildings.
Commercial Window Shield completed a similar project in 2025 for HITT involving USCIS at its Lincoln, Neb. office.
Commercial Window Shield and HITT have had a long-term relationship involving a number of window film installation projects in recent years. The company, one of the country’s leading installers of all types of window films, has a history working with some of the country’s top general contractors.
Commercial Window Shield has also completed security, solar control, radio frequency [RF], switchable smart, decorative/privacy window and bird safety film projects for DAVIS, CK Commercial, rand, Harvey-Cleary, HITT, Gilbane Building Co., Watts Construction, DPR Construction and May Construction.
The company’s major focus in its more than 40 years in business has been security and solar control window film installation. Its clients have included the U.S. Capitol, FBI headquarters, the Pentagon, all House of Representative and Library of Congress buildings, Grand Central Terminal, Merrill Lynch headquarters, the United Nations, the Willis [former Sears] Tower, O’Hare and Seattle international airports, and the Philadelphia and Denver mints.
