Is your home burglar-proof?

Most homes aren't — one kick or one thrown rock is all it takes. We harden the two ways intruders actually get in: your glass and your doors. Professionally installed, invisible when it's done.

An alarm tells you someone got in.
Reactive is too late — we keep them out.

Alarms and cameras react after a break-in starts. We work on the layer before that: making your windows and doors so hard to force that most intruders give up and move on to an easier target.

Two layers that stop a break-in before it starts

We do two things, and we do them properly: security film on your glass, and serious hardware on your doors and windows. No upsell maze — just the layers that matter most.

Window Security Film

A clear, heavy-gauge film bonded to the inside of your glass by trained installers. Your windows look exactly the same — but the glass becomes far harder to break through.

  • Holds broken glass together — no instant hole to climb through
  • Turns a 5-second smash-and-grab into minutes of loud, hard work
  • Completely clear — no tint, no change to how your home looks
  • Anchored to the frame for maximum holding strength
  • Bonus: blocks up to 99% of UV and holds glass in storms and accidents
  • Lifetime residential warranty on the film, plus 1-year workmanship warranty

High-Security Locks & Reinforcement

Most front doors fail at the frame, not the lock — a standard strike plate is held in by screws barely an inch long. We add the hardware that makes your existing door resist kicking, prying, and drilling.

  • High-security deadbolts with anti-drill, anti-pick cylinders
  • Full-length reinforced strike plates with 3-inch screws into the stud
  • Hinge reinforcement so the door can't be forced from the hinge side
  • Anti-pry guards and latch protectors on entry and garage doors
  • Window locks and sliding-door security bars for ground-floor openings

Every photo below is from an actual job — clear security film on ground-floor glass, frosted privacy film on large glass, and extra hardware fitted to doors and windows. Notice what you can't see: the film. From the street, a protected window is meant to look exactly like any other window.

What does window film cost?

Your price depends on how many windows you protect, the film strength you choose, and whether the film is anchored to the frame — no complicated formulas. Packages start at $500, and your exact price is confirmed in writing after the free in-home measurement. Try the estimator for a ballpark:

Count the windows an intruder could reach from the ground — that's usually where protection matters most.

Based on 8 windows with standard 7 mil film, anchored to the frame. Anchoring is what keeps the whole pane in place under repeated hits — we recommend it on every ground-floor window.

Why hardening beats just an alarm

Alarm & camera only

  • Goes off after someone is already inside
  • A standard window breaks in seconds, silently or not
  • A standard door frame can split with one solid kick
  • Smash-and-grab theft is often over before anyone responds
  • Records the break-in — doesn't slow it down

Film + reinforced doors

  • Works before entry — the intruder has to fight the house itself
  • Glass stays in the frame through repeated strikes
  • Reinforced frames and strikes spread the force of a kick into the wall studs
  • Noise, time, and effort are exactly what intruders avoid
  • No batteries, no subscriptions, no false alarms — it's just always on

Warranty, in plain terms

Lifetime residential warranty on Madico SafetyShield film, plus a 1-year workmanship warranty — covers peeling, bubbling, and cracking.

Film — Lifetime Residential

About Toronto Window Shield

Your home is your castle — but most GTA homes were never built to keep anyone out. We're here to fix that, one window and one door at a time.

Ground-floor front windows of a GTA home fitted with clear security film by Toronto Window Shield
Toronto Window ShieldFilm · Locks · Reinforcement

Toronto Window Shield is a locally owned home-fortification company serving homeowners across the Greater Toronto Area. We started with a simple observation: most break-ins aren't sophisticated. Nobody is picking locks like in the movies — they're smashing a ground-floor window or kicking a door, and they're inside in under a minute. Standard glass and standard hardware were never designed to stop that.

So we protect homes the way the pros recommend: in layers. Layer one is the glass — clear Madico SafetyShield film, professionally installed and anchored to the frame, so a struck window cracks but stays in place instead of opening a hole. Layer two is the doors — high-security locks, reinforced strike plates and hinges, and proper locks on sliding patio doors, so a door resists the kick that splits an ordinary frame. Neither layer depends on batteries, Wi-Fi, or a monitoring subscription. It's just there, working, around the clock.

We're specialists, not generalists: security film and door & window reinforcement are all we do, and every job follows the same path — a free in-home security check, a written itemized quote, and a clean, professional install, usually finished in a single day. Your home looks exactly the same when we leave. It just isn't an easy target anymore.

And we stand behind the work: Madico SafetyShield film carries a lifetime residential warranty, and every installation is backed by our 1-year workmanship warranty. If you live in the GTA and you've ever lain awake wondering how fast someone could get into your home — email us. The check is free, and the peace of mind is the point.

Questions homeowners ask us

No. The film we install for security is optically clear — no tint, no mirror finish, no visible difference from inside or outside. Your home looks exactly the same; the glass just behaves very differently when someone hits it.

No honest installer will promise that. What the film does is hold the glass together in the frame after it cracks, so an intruder has to keep hammering through a tough, flexible sheet instead of stepping through an open hole. That delay and noise is what stops most break-ins — intruders want in within seconds, quietly.

Most homes are finished in one day — film on all ground-floor glass plus door reinforcement is typically 4–8 hours depending on the number of windows. The film then needs a few weeks to fully cure, during which it keeps getting stronger.

Film alone holds the glass together, but a hard enough hit can push the whole pane out of a weak frame. An attachment system bonds the filmed glass to the frame itself, so the entire window acts as one barrier. We recommend anchoring on every ground-floor and basement window.

Usually not. Most solid doors are fine — it's the frame, strike plate, and hinges that fail first. Reinforcement hardware upgrades those weak points on your existing door for a fraction of the cost of a new door, and it keeps your home's look unchanged.

Lifetime residential warranty on Madico SafetyShield film, plus a 1-year workmanship warranty — covers peeling, bubbling, and cracking. The film warranty covers the product for as long as you own your home; the workmanship warranty covers our installation for the first year.

A walk-through of every entry point an intruder could use — ground-floor and basement windows, front, side, and garage doors, and sliding doors. We measure your glass, test your hardware, and leave you with a written, itemized quote. There's no charge and no obligation to buy anything.
