Vivint Arena, a premier entertainment venue in Salt Lake City, needed a stronger, shatter-resistant solution for its glass entryway doors to enhance security and protect guests. Our team installed 3M™ Scotchshield™ Safety & Security Film, a high-performance film designed to reinforce glass, helping to deter break-ins and improve safety. This case study highlights how we worked with arena management to select and install a security window film that offers enhanced protection without compromising aesthetics or natural light.

The Challenge: Strengthening Entryway Security at a High-Traffic Venue
As one of Salt Lake City’s busiest venues, Vivint Arena required an advanced security solution for its glass entryway doors. With thousands of visitors passing through daily, the arena’s management sought a way to reduce the risk of shattering glass due to impact or break-ins while maintaining a clear, inviting appearance for guests. A security film was needed to reinforce the glass without altering the aesthetics of the entrance.
The Solution: 3M™ Scotchshield™ Safety & Security Film
Our team selected 3M™ Scotchshield™ Safety & Security Film, a leading security window film known for its ability to hold glass together upon impact, reducing the risk of breakage. This film not only enhances security but also helps protect against accidents, forced entry, and extreme weather conditions. By opting for 3M’s advanced technology, we ensured the arena’s entryway doors remained safe, durable, and visually appealing.
The Results: Increased Security, Durability, and a Seamless Look
Following installation, Vivint Arena’s management saw an immediate improvement in glass strength and security. The film provided an added layer of protection, making the entry doors more resistant to breakage while maintaining a sleek, transparent appearance. Our team worked closely with the arena to complete the project efficiently and discreetly, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations. Thanks to 3M’s industry-leading security film, Vivint Arena now enjoys reinforced safety and peace of mind without compromising the venue’s modern, welcoming look.
