Z SECURE is a patented and tested attachment system for doors used in conjunction with security window films.

Glass Doors & Windows are typically the weak point that criminals exploit to enter a building. Consequently, it is desirable to have a system and method which allows for increased security. Security film increases the safety & security of traditional glass by holding the film on the glass and that said glass is held within the frame typically with silicone.  However, doors with glass are constructed differently than windows. Metal doors with glass generally have glass that is installed using a removable kit aka glazing/glass stop that uses a compression gasket to keep it in place.  This means that the use of silicone on that system will fail to keep an intruder out because the glass or glazing stops will release from the frame.  IT IS NOT THE SILICONE THAT FAILS, BUT THE METHOD IN WHICH IT IS USED.

 EVERY FILM MANUFACTURER’S BULLETIN REFERENCES THE APPLICATION OF DOW 995 OR 3M’S IPA IS TO HAVE A CERTAIN SIZE BEAD THAT CONNECTS THE FILM TO THE FRAME.  THIS CAN’T BE ACHIEVED ON THE MAJORITY OF COMMERCIAL DOORS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD! (See Adhesive Bulletins)

THIS IS WHY TRIPLE PATENTED ZSecure WAS INVENTED, PROVEN AND INDEPENDENTLY TESTED!!!

Currently, most specifications issued with construction project drawings suggest and reference a bead of silicone be applied at the filmed surface of the glass as an attachment/anchoring method.

THE ABOVE SPECIFICATIONS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED TO BE EFFECTIVE ON WINDOWS NOT DOORS.  THE ABOVE SPECIFICATION HAS A HIGH FAILURE RATE WHEN USED ON DOORS!

ZSecure was invented to solve this problem. The ZSecure anchoring system uses metal bent to resemble a “Z” that adheres to the security filmed glass or laminate goes over the removable glass kit/ glazing stop and then adheres to the door frame. Thus, eliminating the scenario of the glass falling out of the door. ZSecure is a custom-made product for each door size and style. ZSecure is available in many popular frame color options including Clear Anodized, Dark Bronze and more.

IF an unwanted intruder breaks the glass in a door, Z SECURE will hold the security filmed glass and kit in the frame of the door.

Z SECURE is an exclusive product made for each door size and style with available colors that match popular frame options including Clear Anodized, Dark Bronze, and more. Therefore, aesthetically this system is preferred over the common rubberized glazing tape. Z SECURE is custom shaped to go over the glass stop/kit with a .50” bite on to the frame and a 90° bend over the stop/kit, another 90° bend will go onto the filmed glass surface. Bend and Angle Dimensions of the shape will always vary because of the custom fit of Z Secure and depending on the depth of the glass stop/kit.
