LIMA, Ohio  Bath Local Schools has hired Commercial Window Shield to install fragment retention film on two of its school buildings.

The school system, in Northwest Ohio, joins a rapidly growing list of school districts nationwide that are protecting the glass in their school buildings to help keep out violent intruders.

Commercial Window Film will install 8-mil security film with a wet glaze attachment system on over 1,000 windows and other pains of glass in building entryways at Bath Middle and Bath High schools.

The company was awarded the project through a competitive bid process. Company officials have worked closely with a Bath schools architect in planning the project, which will be completed prior to the new school year.

In addition to stalling unwanted entries into buildings through glass, the security film also will help protect the windows and other glass during potential foul weather events, such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

Commercial Window Shield has become the country’s go-to company for protecting our nation’s school building glass. The company recently completed a similar project at 26 schools for Calvert County [Md.] Public Schools. Previously, the company was hired for security window film installation projects at 36 school districts in Long Island, N.Y., and Glastonbury and Simsbury school districts in Connecticut.

With nearly 35 years experience, Commercial Window Shield is the nation’s leading security and solar reflective window film installer.  Among its many projects in the nation’s capitol region, the company has protected windows at the U.S. Capitol, Pentagon, and all House of Representative buildings. Nationwide, the company has completed projects at O’Hare International Airport, the Willis Tower [former Sears Tower], Denver Mint, Grand Central Terminal and George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston.
