Bullet Resistant Doors

Obtain copies of U.S. and European bullet resistant door standards Manufacturers, bulletproof door distributors and bulletproof door suppliers must be intimately familiar with the standards for bullet resistant equipment. Organizations concerned with customer and personnel safety have a wide variety of sources to choose from when selecting bulletproof doors. The best way for organizations to verify supplier compliance is to know the standards themselves.

I recommend:  Purchase UL 752 bullet resistant material standards from Underwriters Laboratories. For organizations with facilities in Europe, visit Standards Direct to get a copy of BS EN 1522.

Target bulletproof door suppliers who meet the standards Anyone can claim to make a bullet resistant door, but when lives are at stake you need assurance. Fortunately, you can easily verify UL and European standards compliance. Top bulletproof door distributors also have client lists, professional organization memberships and other important quality verification information available on request.

I recommend:  Buy wood finish bullet resistant doors from Armortex, the original manufacturer of UL-listed Armortex bullet-resistant products. Request a quote for custom built bullet resistant doors from Krieger Specialty Products. Krieger doors are UL 752 certified at levels 1 through 8 and exceed the basic anti-terrorism standards for United States Central Command and the U.S. Department of Defense.

Purchase from bullet proof door providers who offer turn-key solutions An effective bullet proof door system includes the door material, glazing, anchor and frame. All door and associated components will absorb a projectile's energy and a bullet resistant framing system is required for the installation to perform as needed during any attack.

I recommend:  Although U.S. Bullet Proofing does not offer installation services, they do have experienced glazing contractors ready to install their bullet proof doors and other products. U.S. Bullet Proofing also offers important technical education and will conduct a blast analysis to ensure they meet GSA blast criteria for your facility needs. Pacific Bulletproof Co. designs, manufactures and installs tailor-made bullet proof doors and other protection technology across the United States.
