Shatterproof Security Glass for Storefronts & Homes

Protect your storefront or home from smash-and-grab theft, break-ins, and vandalism with RockGlass — a shatterproof, virtually unbreakable security glass system available two ways. Choose retrofit security panels to proactively harden your existing, intact glass, or hybrid sealed units to fully replace glass that's already broken, being replaced, or newly built.

Why is RockGlass stronger than standard glass?

RockGlass isn't a single brittle sheet — it's a multi-layer laminated system that bonds glass to tough polymer interlayers, so an impact spreads across the whole panel instead of shattering one pane. That construction makes it up to 200x stronger than standard glass and lets it meet burglar-resistant classes like EN 356 P1A–P8B (EN 356): under repeated blows the pane may crack, but it holds together and keeps intruders out.

Shatterproof

Up to 200x stronger than standard glass. Prevents breakage from sledgehammers, bats, and forced entry tools.

Graffiti Resistant

Features a chemical-resistant seal allowing for easy and complete graffiti removal without damaging the surface.

Scratch Resistant

Hard-coated surface resists scratching from keys, rocks, and intentional vandalism.

Sound Resistant

Significantly reduces noise transmission, creating a quieter environment inside your business.

UV Protection

Laminated security glass filters up to 99% of damaging UV rays (Eastman), preventing discoloration and fading of window displays and interior merchandise.

Versatile Installation

Proactively retrofit over existing, intact glass to save costs, or fully replace broken or newly built glass with hybrid sealed units.

How is RockGlass installed?

Police recorded 130,748 breaking-and-entering incidents across Canada in 2023 (Statistics Canada), and most start at a window or glass door. Whether you proactively harden intact windows with retrofit panels or replace broken glass with a hybrid sealed unit, RockGlass hardens that exact weak point.

Retrofit Security Panels — the proactive upgrade

Retrofit panels are the proactive choice: they install over your existing, intact glass to reinforce doors and windows against break-ins before anything happens — no replacement, lower cost, and minimal downtime. Color-matched for a seamless, professional finish.

  • Proactive — harden your windows before a break-in happens

  • Prevents forced entry, vandalism, and accidental breakage
  • Installed in just a few hours with no damage to frames
  • Backed by a decade of guaranteed performance

Hybrid Sealed Units — the reactive & new-build replacement

Hybrid sealed units are the reactive and new-build choice: a complete replacement window unit for when the glass is already broken or being replaced — such as after a break-in — or for new construction. They deliver high-performance, impact-resistant strength while preserving the building's original look.

  • A complete replacement unit for broken, aging, or newly built glass
  • Ideal after a break-in or as part of a planned window replacement
  • Protects against smash-and-grab theft, weather, and accidental damage
  • Reduces heat transfer for a more comfortable interior
  • Ideal for schools, hospitals, and institutions needing discreet strength

Security glass stories from real storefronts

A vandalized storefront and a twice-damaged menu board — two Western Canada businesses that chose RockGlass security glass over shutters and ordinary replacement glass.

After our window was vandalized, we considered installing shutters on our storefront. However, after seeing neighboring stores with shutters and comparing the price difference between shutters and Security Glass, we decided to proceed with Security Glass. Once our Security Glass was installed, our storefront looked significantly more inviting than those of our neighbors. Additionally, one neighbor's shutters were vandalized, leaving them unable to open, requiring emergency repairs. I am very satisfied with the installation and appearance. It makes my storefront stand out on a block of storefronts with shutters.

We had our menu board damaged twice in 2022 and we were looking for a company to put a protective glass, one of our district managers recommended ProGuard, and we decided to go with the company. I couldn't be happier. The installation was quick and smooth, and the quality of the product is outstanding. It's not only more durable than regular glass, but it also looks fantastic. I feel much more secure and confident with ProGuard. Highly recommend it to anyone needing a strong, reliable solution!
