Remedies
Any breakage problem has more severe consequences where the glass is installed overhead or in public areas (such as in high-rise buildings). Protection from this hazard can be increased by the application of a safety window film to the tempered panes of glass. An old-fashioned precaution was to install metal screens below skylights.

Famous quotes containing the word remedies:
“But sure there is need of other remedies than dreaming, a weak contention of art against nature.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Fear, coercion, punishment, are the masculine remedies for moral weakness, but statistics show their failure for centuries. Why not change the system and try the education of the moral and intellectual faculties, cheerful surroundings, inspiring influences? Everything in our present system tends to lower the physical vitality, the self-respect, the moral tone, and to harden instead of reforming the criminal.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie,
Which we ascribe to heaven.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
