Winter is a beautiful time of year, but it also brings with it a whole host of challenges for homeowners. From below-zero temperatures to heavy snowfall and dull sunless days, winter weather can wreak havoc on your home’s energy efficiency and overall comfort level. But the good news is it doesn’t have to!
Winter can be a difficult time of year for many of us.
The long, cold nights, shorter days and lack of sunlight can prompt some to experience increased fatigue and feelings of sadness, also known as the winter blues.
Winter is here and according to the Farmers’ Almanac, the worst is yet to come. The 2022 report indicates that Ontario is in for an “unreasonably” cold snow-filled season. December is expected to begin “unreasonably” cold with snowfall and rain, and in January we may see one of the “coldest arctic outbreaks” in recent years.
Schools are indispensable. They provide an environment where children can acquire an abundance of knowledge and develop their minds for the future. But none of this is possible unless students and staff feel safe.

There are several additions you can make to a building to improve its security, including surveillance and alarm systems, locks, and controlled access entry points.
But even with these additions, a building is only as secure as its most vulnerable entry points, which in most cases are the building’s glass doors and windows.
Why trust 3M™ Security Window Films for Building Security?
Surveillance and alarm systems can do wonders for deterring forced entry, but one thing they fail to do is create a physical barrier to keep potential intruders outside. No matter how much security a building is deemed to have, a determined attacker can easily smash through a standard pane of glass to access the building.
Bars can be unsightly and expensive. Laminated glass usually doesn’t offer high enough security. 3M™ Security Films are clear and efficient. Call us for more details.
