Forced entry is a common method used by intruders to gain unauthorized access to a property through physical force, often employing tools like crowbars, hammers, or other blunt instruments to break through windows and doors. These entry points are particularly vulnerable, making them prime targets for criminals seeking quick, unnoticed access. Forced entry poses a significant threat to both personal safety and property, potentially leading to loss of valuables and creating a dangerous situation for those inside.

To effectively protect against forced entry, it’s essential to go beyond traditional methods like window bars or storm shutters, which often fail to provide comprehensive security. Modern solutions such as retrofit forced entry-resistant door and window systems offered by Glass House Security, offer a more robust defense. These advanced security measures provide better protection against physical breaches, ensuring peace of mind for homeowners and safeguarding both their property and loved ones.
