The ideal way to prevent flying shards due to earthquakes, blasts, or hostile intrusions. Crystal Guard upgrades windows and doors to be the first line of defense during and after projectile impact. Crystal Guard aims to be a deterrent preventing or delaying attackers from breaching school premises, buying precious minutes to execute emergency plans and extend law enforcement response time.
