Access control technology has evolved well beyond simply keeping unwanted visitors out of your McAllen business. Today's systems, like the Verkada solutions offered by Circle Industries, deliver benefits across your entire organization. From sustainability to business intelligence, these powerful platforms are transforming how Texas businesses operate. While the security benefits remain the most important, forward-thinking companies are discovering that modern access control unlocks unexpected value in operations, efficiency, and even environmental impact. Let’s explore the hidden benefits below. 

Texas schools are taking security seriously, with the Texas Education Agency's mandate requiring security film on vulnerable windows and doors. With $400 million in state grants allocated specifically for upgrading security measures, including door and window reinforcement, Harlingen schools now have the opportunity to implement this critical safety feature. Security film provides an additional layer of protection that can make the difference between a successful intrusion and a prevented incident, giving staff and students precious time to respond during an emergency. Let’s explore the benefits and results of schools using this tool to increase safety for students, staff, and campuses.

Protecting students and staff is a top priority for administrators and facilities managers in Harlingen, TX. With growing concerns about school safety and increasing pressure from parents and the broader community, you must find ways to improve security without exhausting your budget. Two popular options—impact-resistant film and bulletproof glass—are often confused. While both add layers of protection, their differences matter when making campus-wide security upgrades.

Understanding these solutions' features, limitations, and applications can help district decision-makers make informed, effective choices.

Texas businesses reported over $35 million in commercial theft losses last year, with many incidents occurring after hours when properties sat unattended.
