Plus glass type SILATEC P6B/EH1. For especially valuable exhibits RC5 or RC6 windows and glass of the type SILATEC P8B/EH3. Caution: The standard is not adequate, especially not for jewelers. Because the standard does not even test the decisive weak point - the glass! But display windows need special burglary protection. Our solution - especially developed for this purpose - are walls of glass: In 40 years, they have prevented more than 5000 burglaries in jeweler display windows. A priceless treasure trove of experience from the criminal practice. Please take advantage of it.
Because they cannot be opened and that represents a huge benefit for the burglary protection.
Because glass is the decisive weak point - it is attacked in almost all cases. We recommend safety glass at least type SILATEC P6B/EH1, or even better SILATEC P8B/EH3.
The further the glass protrudes into the frame, the safer will it be held. We recommend approx. 25 mm protrusion especially for floor-deep and large display windows. This offer already significantly more burglary protection as the often used 15 mm, for example against “pressing”.
Because a sealing seam made of “adhering” silicone is better than a rubber lip seal, which is only pressed between glass and frame to keep water out. The sealing keeps the pane better in the frame, on the outside and the inside.
Both alternatives are OK and they have their advantages and disadvantages. The installation from the outside is in most cases recommended for large safety panes. The pane must be exchanged as quickly as possible after a burglary attempt, and this is easier from the outside, because on the inside, the store equipment is often in the way. However, caution: The safety glass pane must be especially secured when installed from the outside, to ensure that burglars do not simply dismantle the pane from the outside. How does that work? Inquire about it. We are pleased to be available for consultations.
SILATEC produces safety glass especially for display windows. It is not only 20 times safer that traditional armored glass. But also peerlessly thinner, light weight and: not green tinted as armored glass, but crystal clear - the gemstones radiate the unfiltered light. But 100% of the UV light will be filtered to protect valuable exhibits against fading - and this also applies to your high-quality furniture and carpets, and for all delicate materials such as leather, fabric or wood.
Of course, the individual local conditions must be included and must be coordinated early with your insurance company. We would be pleased to do this for you and we will provide consultations for you at any time.
