Unfortunately, there has been another school shooting. This one is in California.

Armor Glass has been installing our security film on a number of schools - to "armor their glass" entrances. Even small rural schools have approached us, all with the same fear of a kid with a gun shooting up their school.

This is another sad day of grief for parents who lost children to a shooter. ... See MoreSee Less

Typhoon is the Asian name for "hurricane" and the season is clearly not over. The Pacific has been generating HUGE CAT 5 hurricanes in recent years, but the Atlantic this year also had a record number of CAT 5 storms.

Bigger storms mean more wind. More wind means more window failures, resulting in structural destruction and damage.

Our security films "Armor the Glass" at a fraction of the cost of laminated windows or shutters. They also save money by cutting solar heat getting inside, not to mention harmful UV. ... See MoreSee Less

Never before have we recorded a CAT 5 hurricane in the eastern part of the Atlantic Ocean, until Hurricane Lorenzo. The weather continues to set new records for higher winds and more destructive rain, both hazards facing humans and our fragile shelters from the elements.

While those not in its path may feel Lorenzo's record doesn't mean much, it should. Because it means that the next storm that does come your way is probably going to be STRONGER and more dangerous one. Existing structures are proving inadequate from being blown apart.

This will mean that buildings will have to be made stronger to survive these killer winds. Glass remains the weakest link of every building on the planet. When it blows out, a building is instantly "pressurized" --with roaring winds blowing off roof and the walls out. Studies show if the glass seal is maintained, so is the buildings structural integrity (barring rising water, the other storm threat).

Armor Glass addresses that weak link by "armoring the glass" with our unique security film which has passed the critical Miami Dade and Large Missile impact tests. That is why it was picked for all the federal buildings in Washington DC after 911. We have put it on everything from retired teachers houses to NASA's Mission Control glass.

These storms are a warning that people need to pay attention to. Because if it your glass blowing out in a future storm, the chances of injury or death or your family is increased dramatically.

In the meantime, we have been busy installing our film on SCHOOLS (for shooter protection) and even put it on an historic mansion on Galveston Island recently which has glass dating back 100 years ago.

Our film not only strengthens it, we used the tint version because of the huge solar heat issues they were having. Armor Glass film now provides both hurricane protection and has cut the solar heat entering the house by 50 percent! (Not to mention 99% of harmful UV). So, now they are cooler and safer.

Check us out and get a quote. The life you save may be your own.

I share this to give parents an idea of what kids are going through with the shooter craze, mostly done by kids of young men.

8 mil Armor Glass has been specified by schools districts to protect their glass entrances from breach by a shooter.

At the same time it provides protection from glass failures in hurricane force winds and solar heat.

Its sad that this is happening. But it is also a reminder that glass is an accident waiting to happen. Even little kids can break it.

One or two shots and tempered glass becomes a pulenof glass fragments on the floor and an emtpy frame to walk through.

So "armoring the glass" is the key to making buildings and people inside safer. ... See MoreSee Less

Tropical Storm Imelda is blowing over Houston - it came out of no where. Only 40 mph winds. Mainly a 5 day rain maker. However, it could converge over Houston and create 4 to 5 inches of rain PER HOUR. Flooding is the big risk on this one.

But several more spinners coming off the coast of Africa that could form into major threats.

This is the peak of the season....expect a series of these for awhile. Stay prepared. ... See MoreSee Less

THINK of it.

The people of the Bahamas experienced Hurricane CAT 5 winds of 220 miles per hour - for 3 days! Imagine being in the middle of a TORNADO for 3 DAYS!

CAT 5 maxs out at 157 miles per hour. The wind speed spread from each Category is less than 27 miles per hour. So if the Hurricane scale was adjusted to today's storm, Dorian would have been a CAT 7! (which doesn't yet exist, but should).

WOW. Imagine, being hit for 3 days by the equivalent of a CAT 7 storm! Plus the water drowning them.

This is becoming the new normal - stronger killer storms that can linger and kill for days at mind-blowing speeds that the structures people are living in today cannot withstand --starting with their fragile windows....which a child can break.

Once windborne breaks a window, the winds pressurize the building, exploding it. Armor Glass avoids that by "armoring the glass" you have. ... See MoreSee Less

If I were retired I would be bored out of my mind. Instead, I have been from Brownsville TX to Jacksonville FL in the last couple of months, not including the Texas Panhandle.

In all of these places, Armor Glass was making a difference - protecting students from shooters and buildings from hurricanes and heat. We leave behind something tangible that will be there long after I am gone.

So I am out the door again. When (not if) I get a driver-less car i will be able to work the computer more to respond to your questions instead of being in transit.

I live for the present and the future, not the past. We can't change the past, but we can change the present and the future...Armor Glass does that every time we "armor the weakest link, the glass" from breach by Mother Nature or Human Intrusion.

It takes more than words to make the world a better place. It takes ACTION. Every day.

That's my thought for the day. Make the most of it. ... See MoreSee Less

We now have 4 active storms in the gulf and Atlantic. Fernand may impact South Texas and who knows what Gabrielle will threaten as Dorian rolls up the Atlantic coast. We also have an as yet unnamed tropical wave forming in the hot Atlantic. This is the peak of Hurricane season.

If we get one in the Gulf we could have less than 24 hours notice before it makes landfall - that was what happened with Harvey.

If there was a CAT 6 category, Dorian would have met the test. Some of the wind gusts in the Bahamas hit 220 miles per hour!

This intensity means that we will most likely face more of these killer storms in the future. That will requires we build something more than the "Houses of Straw" we currently live in...

It appears CAT 4 Dorian may change to a more northernly course, sparing Florida a direct hit.

As Americans enjoy this Labor Day weekend with their families, please keep in mind the people in the Bahamas and eastern USA coast who will be facing 150 mile per hour winds.

We have now had three CAT 3 or higher hurricanes hit the USA in the past three years, a new record number of hits. Something is happening to the weather and the storms like Dorian are getting much bigger. More like it will be coming so get prepared and stay prepared.

The weather channel keeps promoting 18th century plywood technology to cover windows over 21st Century Armor Glass Security Film... (imagine trying to put that heavy plywood on a second story window on a windy day without being blown into the next county!)

Don't ride a horse to work when you can go to work in and air conditioned car; likewise, don't use ugly, heavy plywood when you can have 24/7/365 Armor Glass protection that also blocks harmful solar heat and UV.

DORIAN is now a CAT 4! Winds are over 140 mph!

It is VERY possible it will hit CAT 5 before it hits Florida. Imagine standing behind a jet engine revving up and you get the idea of what that wind is like.

In the Pacific a couple years ago, we had a hurricane (typhoon they call them) that would have been a CAT 6 or higher if the scale went beyond 5!

It could happen here too as our planet heats up. The water temp is about 86 and anything over 80 degrees is jet fuel for hurricanes.

Stay tuned! The entire state of Florida will be impacted by this 500-plus mile wide monster....

Just this month Armor Glass put our hurricane-rated security film on several stores for a client of ours who has locations in Florida including Jacksonville.

Today it appears that computer models show Jacksonville is in the red zone of Tropical storm Dorian which has the potential of becoming a hurricane before landfall.

The good news is that our security film is already working! No need to "board up" if it does hit. The film has passed the Miami Dade hurricane test and large missile impact tests in an independent lab.

We anchored the film to the frames with a structural sealant that looks like caulking but is far superior in that it not only seals from leaks, it is actually holding the film to the glass when wind-borne debris breaks the glass.

Normally when that happens all the glass breaks into small pieces and falls to the fall, leaving a gaping opening in which wind and rain rush. The wind tries to get out by pushing up on the roof. The rain makes mold and months of reconstruction necessary.

ALL of this is avoided with Armor Glass security film. Even if broken, the film provides a seal from the wind and rain. No uplift on the roof. No rain penetrating during a storm so no reconstruction required. Replace the broken glass, put on new Armor Glass security film and you are good to go again - safer and more secure because of Armor Glass.

We have seen how our competitors offer cheap film that tears apart and easily pulls off the glass. Not so with Armor Glass film - our 8 mil pulls off only after much struggle, and in one piece. It is the "Mercedes" of film, but comes at a price even Ford people can afford.

Check us out. If your job is too small and far away for us, we will try to help you find someone in your area to help, but that is never easy. Few people know about the technology and fewer still know how to properly install security film so it works properly.

For example, failure to apply frame bonding on a tempered glass will result in the glass falling out of the frame after impact, because it wasn't anchored. Plate glass however does not require frame bonding.

Armor Glass is a registered U.S. trademark. Our security films (clear and tint versions) have prevented injuries and loss from hurricane-force storms, burglars and even children running into glass and breaking it --avoiding blood, screams, stitches and trips to the ER.

And when the storms like Dorian come, you don't have to "board up" to prepare. You already are... ... See MoreSee Less

September is peak Hurricane month. It is too late to call when a named storm is bearing down on us so get prepared in advance.

Hurricanes kill buildings by blowing out the weakest link, the glass. That is when the winds lift up the roof. With Armor Glass security film, you are prepared 24/7/365.

Armor Glass just finished installing our security film on a small rural school. Why?

Because even they are worried about a shooter blowing out the glass and entering their school to kill. Frankly, the town was so small I had not heard of it until they contacted us and I used to live within 50 miles of it.

Aside from shooters, our film will protect them from tornadoes throwing debris through the glass as much as a shooter. They have "armored the glass" the weakest link of every building.

We aren't advertising the names of the schools we have installed film on but we did learn something from our work this summer.

On one school we were asked to put another company's film on the school. It was supposed to be "equivalent" to Armor Glass film. We discovered that it wasn't even close.

When asked to change out one of the films they had put on windows, our installers discovered that their film tore literally in half when pulled off, whereas our film comes off in one piece!

The installers were also surprised how easy the other film came off despite being on the glass for a couple days. This doesn't happen with our film - it takes huge effort to pull it off because the adhesive is so good.

Our warning to school districts is this - don't go for the lowest price because other contractors are selling junk film that won't stand up well if and when they sustain a shooter attack. They are cheaper because the product is cheap. Unless they are selling the identical film that Armor Glass sells, you can bet its inferior product.

They won't even know its crap film until disaster hits. Don't take chances. ... See MoreSee Less
