Auto Glass Safety
The windshield provides a significant amount of strength to the structural support in the cabin of the vehicle. For instance, in a front end collision the windshield provides up to 45% of the structural integrity of the cabin of the vehicle and in a rollover, up to 60%.
The windshield is an integral part of the safety restraint system in your car. It keeps the roof from crushing in on you in a rollover, it allows the airbags to deploy in the correct position to cushion passengers, and prevents you and your family from being ejected in a serious collision. It's important to your family's safety that the auto glass in your vehicle be installed properly. Read more about windshield safety at www.SafeWindshields.com
Your safety and satisfaction is our number one concern. Automotive glass is an integral part of the safety of your vehicle. You should be able to rely on it just as you would your vehicle’s seatbelt. A windshield is the backstop for your airbags, if installed incorrectly or with substandard parts it could fail to protect you in an accident.
We use only high quality parts keeping your vehicle in the same condition as when it was new. We use top quality urethanes and the latest technologies to make sure that every install is safe, convenient, and reliable.

 Fast Curing Windshield Urethane
We use only high quality urethanes that are safe, reliable, and have been crash tested to exceed rigorous federal safety standards. Why is this important? The urethane is the bonding agent between the car windshield and the pinch weld. If the bond fails, then your windshield could come loose causing your life to become endangered. Additionally, we only use auto glass urethanes that are fast drying to keep your safe drive away time to a minimum.The safe drive away time is approximately one hour.

 Powder Free Nitrile Gloves
Nitrile gloves are an industry standard. They are an important part to keeping your windshield bond, free from contamination. All our auto glass teknicians are required to wear nitrile gloves during a windshield replacement to keep your glass seal, free of oils that can cause adhesive separation. Our auto glass teknicians are aware of this zero tolerance policy and are educated on the importance of bond adhesion.

 Rust Free Windshield Pinch Weld
Another integral part of auto glass replacement is assuring that any present rust is removed and all scratches are treated. Any scratches that go untreated can turn into rust on the pinch weld causing a break in the urethane seal. This break can cause the windshield adhesion to fail upon impact, putting your life in danger. Our auto glass teknicians are highly trained in proper adhesive products including all required primers to keep your pinch weld rust free.
