ABSTRACT:
A security attachment system for windows having laminated film covering the glass panes. The system includes positioning two-sided tape that overlaps both an edge portion of the film and a side portion of the adjacent window frame. A hollow flange track having a right-angled cross-sectional shape is positioned over the tape. The flange track has a stepped up bottom which fits about the raised pre-existing spline between the glass and the side frame. Screw type fasteners are inserted into the flange to it to the sides of the window frame. A snap on cover plate with bulbous shaped prongs fits over a longitudinal opening in the flange track. Flange tracks and their respective cover plates are provided for each of the four edges where the window frames meet the glass panes. The security system increases the tensile strength of the glass and film cover and is useful against projectiles and during hurricane storm conditions. A second version uses a cover plate with bent prongs and a bent edge to be attached to the opening side of the track.
