Hullco Now Offering Armor Glass Plus Security Windows

Wednesday, November 30, 2005

Hullco, located on East Brainerd Road near I-75, is now offering Armor Glass Plus windows, owner Bill Hullander said.

The windows made by Gorell Windows and Doors of Indiana, Pa., were earlier featured on an episode of "It Takes A Thief" on the Discovery Channel.

They will be highlighted in a second episode of the show, which will air on Monday, Dec. 5.

The episode deals with a widowed woman who switches to the special windows on her houseboat, Mr. Hullander said.

He said the windows offer greater security, sound control, safety, energy savings and UV protection.

Mr. Hullander said in tests the special windows withstand more than 30 blows from a baseball ba before a hole the size of a quarter appears.

He said, "We are now able to offer this excellent system that features a pane of glass with SolarControl™ Plus low-emissivity coating and argon gas between the panes for excellent energy efficiency—and two additional glass panes that sandwich a tough polyvinyl butyral interlayer for superb strength and protection.
Security: The Armor Glass Plus system keeps intruders outside, whereas alarm systems only tell you when an intruder is already inside your home.

"Also, no other insulating glass system deadens sound to keep your home quiet like the Armor Glass Plus system. And, the Armor Glass Plus System filters over 99 percent of UV radiation that causes gradual fading of carpeting, draperies and other home furnishings."

Hullco is at 7110 E. Brainerd Road near Concord Baptist Church. The phone number is 899-2400.

Thank You, Judge Mattice And Chattanooga

I would like to thank Judge Mattice for handing down a 30.5 year sentence for Kathleen Mathews.  Obviously, no amount of jail time, fines, or lashings can bring back Tim Chapin.   A 30-year sentence will, however, make the world just a little safer.  That's what Sgt. Chapin would have wanted.  He was a protector and sacrificed his life so the rest of ... (click for more)
