          2.2SECURITY GLAZING LAMINATES
          ** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Safe Haven Defense SW40SR laminate is applied onsite, to the Interior of existing windows in commercial, municipal, and residential buildings. Unlike traditional smash resistant glass, no special modifications or retrofitting to existing structure needs to be done. Because our laminate can be applied over existing glass as thin as 1/4 inch (6 mm), customers achieve the end goal of hardening their structure at a significant cost savings to traditional SR glass. Existing window must be inspected to be structurally sound. Delete if not required.
