Simonton SafePoint™ Impact-Resistant Glass Provides Secure, Quiet Structures

“This glass package is designed to make a home a safe haven,” says Ken Kubus, coastal market manager for Simonton Windows. “The unique laminated SafePoint glass package helps reduce unwanted sound in the home, increases protection against high winds, and offers proven protection against forced entry.*”

Similar in design to impact-resistant glass packages found in code-driven coastal area homes, SafePoint glass offers no-effort protection for the home, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Houses constructed with ProFinish Brickmould 600 windows and doors with the SafePoint glass package do not need to be boarded up before storms or impending severe weather. Products with SafePoint glass have passed ASTM standards E1886-05 and E1996-09 at the Missile “C” level and can withstand repeated blows by a heavy object.

Simonton ProFinish Brickmould 600 windows and doors feature a brickmould/J-channel design with an attractive multi-tiered profile that meets architectural specifications and aids installation.
