** Client Bulletin ** Attention: Removal of rubber spline from glass doors and windows by vandals
** Client Bulletin **
Lately, we have been seeing several instances of commercial and industrial building break-ins and attempted break-in’s resulting from the removal of the rubber spline around exterior glass windows or doors. Vandals can gain access to the building through this action. Glass is being removed from the frame and entry is being made into the structure. From a distance, the site still looks secure.
