What is the price of security window film in Ballymoney?
Our guide range for security window film in Ballymoney is £54 to £132 including VAT (£45 to £110 plus VAT) per m², including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
Security window film is a clear, tough polyester film bonded to the inside face of existing glass with a strong adhesive. When the glass breaks, the film holds the fragments together, which reduces injury from flying glass and slows down anyone trying to get through, without replacing the glass itself.
Choices you can make
- Edge-retention anchoring into the frame for blast mitigation
- Removable later without harming the glass
- Security films of 200 microns and thicker
- Frosted and privacy versions for meeting rooms and bathrooms
- Clear safety films from about 100 microns
- Fitted on site without removing the glass

Questions we will ask at the survey
Safety or security film
Thinner films improve how glass breaks; thicker films add resistance to attack. We match the film to what you want it to do.
Is the glass suitable
Some double-glazed units and coated or tinted glass can suffer heat stress with certain films. We check the glass and the unit maker's guidance first.
Building regulations and safety in Northern Ireland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent from the council for works affecting their character, which can include historic glass and sash windows. The Department for Communities' Historic Environment Division advises on these cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of shopfronts and external changes.
Safety glass in critical locations
In Northern Ireland, safety glazing is covered by Part V of the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, with guidance in Technical Booklet V. It follows a critical-location approach similar to Great Britain, covering glazing in and beside doors and at low level. Laminated or toughened safety glass is the usual answer; building control at the council can confirm the detail.

Security window film in Ballymoney: questions
Which areas near Ballymoney do you cover?
We can arrange work in Ballymoney and in nearby Coleraine (7 miles), Ballymena (17 miles) and Limavady (17 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Does security film make glass as strong as laminated glass?
Not usually. Film greatly improves how glass breaks and slows an attack, but it only matches a laminated glass class where that film and glass combination has been tested together.
How long does window film last?
Fitted on the inside, quality films typically last many years. Life depends on sun exposure and cleaning, and we give the manufacturer's expected life with the quote.
Can film be used on listed buildings?
Film is fitted inside and can be removed, so it is often an acceptable way to protect historic glass. Check with the council's conservation officer for listed buildings.
