Hi, everyone! Our home renovation has been thrown off track because of our four-legged friend. We adopted a young, energetic dog from a shelter, and now every time someone walks past the house or a delivery person arrives, the dog takes a running start and jumps at the balcony door with his paws. As a result, the bottom pane of glass is already all scratched up, and I’m really afraid that one day he’ll just smash it with his whole body. A veterinarian I know advised me not to replace the double-pane window, but to apply a thick, reinforced protective film. I started looking for options online and came across a
window film supplier that provides detailed information on the thickness of impact-resistant films in microns and how to apply them. I plan to go with the highest-strength option and install it myself. Can anyone tell me if they’ve reinforced their windows this way to protect them from pets? Does the film hold up against deep scratches from claws, and is it easy to clean off drool and dirt afterward?
