As Houston thrives with its diverse landscapes from bustling urban districts like Downtown and Uptown to tranquil suburban communities, the need for innovative solutions to protect both wildlife and property becomes ever more pressing. At Window Film Houston, we’re dedicated to addressing these needs through our advanced bird strike window decals. These innovative solutions not only enhance the safety of our feathered friends but also offer protection for your glass surfaces against potential damage.
Understanding the Impact
Each year, between 100 million and 1 billion birds lose their lives by colliding with glass in the United States alone(source). Houston, with its large expanses of glass-fronted commercial buildings and residential properties, mirrors this national challenge. Our bird strike window decals serve as a vital tool in mitigating these incidents, making glass surfaces more visible to birds and significantly reducing collision risks.
Effective Placement of Decals
To be effective, window decals must be placed on the outside of glass windows. This placement makes the decals more visible to birds, thereby preventing accidents before they happen(source). At Window Film Houston, our installation team ensures that every decal is optimally placed to provide maximum protection for birds and aesthetic value for your property.
Design and Spacing: A Proven Strategy
Our bird strike window decals are not only about protection but also about preservation of your views. Applying decals or patterns such as vertical strips of tape or decals spaced no more than 4 inches apart has been shown to be highly effective(source). This strategic spacing ensures minimal visual obstruction, maintaining the beauty and clarity of your windows while safeguarding wildlife.
Benefits Beyond Bird Protection
While the primary focus of our window decals is to protect birds, they offer additional benefits:
- Energy Efficiency: By reducing the amount of glass breakage, they help maintain the integrity of your window’s insulation.
- UV Protection: Our decals block harmful UV rays, protecting interior furnishings from sun damage and fading.
- Enhanced Aesthetics: Available in various designs, these decals can add a decorative touch to your building.
- Increased Safety: In the event of glass breakage, decals help hold shards in place, reducing risk of injury.
