Shore Tint & More helps churches, congregations, synagogues, faith-based nonprofits, Christian schools, daycares and shared worship and education campuses across Delaware and the nearby Eastern Shore evaluate their existing glass — security film and attachment systems, privacy and decorative film, and glare and solar control — and document the scope for the people who have to approve it.
Safety and security window film is applied to the glass you already have and is designed to help hold broken glass together after an impact. It does not make glass unbreakable and it is not bullet-resistant glazing.
Attachment systems connect filmed glass more securely to the frame; the complete system of film, glass, frame and attachment determines how an opening behaves after impact.
Privacy and decorative film obscures views through office, nursery and classroom glass while letting daylight through.
Glare, heat and solar-control film reduces glare and solar energy through treated sanctuary, hall and entrance glass. Reflective films add daytime privacy only when the exterior is brighter than the interior.
Delaware DEMA describes the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) as a reimbursement-based competitive program for eligible nonprofits at risk of terrorist attacks, and says eligible subrecipients generally include qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofits located in Delaware that demonstrate high risk.
DEMA lists prior eligible physical-security examples including impact-, blast- and shock-resistant doors and windows. Current eligibility, documentation and reimbursement rules depend on the applicable Notice of Funding Opportunity and DEMA review, so window film is not automatically reimbursable.
DEMA says FEMA typically releases an NSGP NOFO annually in spring and Delaware applications go through DEMA before the state deadline. Official sources: dema.delaware.gov preparedness grants, fema.gov nonprofit security grant program, and CISA's Security Assessment at First Entry (SAFE).

No. Security film is designed to help hold broken glass together after an impact. Bullet-resistant glazing is a separate, separately tested product category.
No. Treated glass can still break. The film is intended to help broken glass stay in place, and performance depends on the film, glass, frame and whether an attachment system is used.
Yes. Most faith-based facilities use several films: security film on designated openings, solar control where sun and glare are the issue, and frosted or decorative film on office, nursery and classroom glass. Reflective privacy depends on lighting.
