Bullet Proof Doors: Everything You Need To Know
In the security and security glass industry, one word which is heavily used is 'bulletproof.' In fact, there are a lot of solutions such as bullet proof windows, blast resistant doors, blast resistant windows, and so on. When we talk about any bullet resistant products, we need to understand that there is nothing such as 100% bulletproof.
However, there are bullet resistant windows and doors which offer ballistic protection up to a certain extent. The exact degree of protection and resistance from bullets depends on the products and materials being used. So, in short, resistance from ballistic impacts can be attained by using correct products/materials and depends on the situation/use case scenario.
When we talk about bullet resistant doors, it must include aluminum or steel security framing as well as bullet-resistant glazing.
Bullet Proof Doors - Explained
When it comes to security, one of the areas which are most vulnerable in a building is 'doors.' That's why when it comes to protection against a ballistic attack or even theft, the only solution is bulletproof doors. Normally, bulletproof doors are also part of broader blast mitigation solutions.
Before we proceed further, let's take a closer look at the meaning of the term 'bulletproof.' Technically, there is no material that is 100% bulletproof... But there are some materials that offer increased protection against bullets. Upon repeated impact by bullets, all materials eventually break. That's why a far better term is bullet-resistant doors instead of bullet-proof doors.
Depending on the requirement, bulletproof doors can also be made of glass and metal framing. Such doors are common in retail stores, banks, and even government institutes which require additional protection against theft and ballistic attacks.
Some of the places where bulletproof doors are commonly used are:
- Schools
- Government Buildings
- Religious Centers
- Retail Stores
- Correctional Facilities
- Office Buildings
And so on...
Additional Benefits of Bulletproof Doors
The term 'bulletproof door' can confuse some people since it denotes that it is only used for protection against bullets. In reality, such doors also offer high resistance against blast damage, forced entry, storm damage, and so on.
For example, it is common for doors and windows to get impacted by bomb blasts, bullets, or flying storm debris. When it happens, glass and other materials can easily shatter and fly inside the buildings. This can be very dangerous for the people inside the building and can even damage the assets.
Another benefit which is mentioned earlier is protection against forced entry. Such doors are reinforced with special material and are able to withstand impact and shockwaves - That's why one can easily expect protection against forced entry from these doors as well.
In short, it is important to reinforce the windows and doors of a building if the owner wants protection against security threats or just wants to ensure the security of the occupants.
Conclusion
When it comes to a full security solution, one usually needs to opt for the full package. Just relying on bulletproof doors while not opting for bulletproof windows can prove to be a really dangerous mistake. So when you explore options of bulletproof doors, your aim should be to go for full-spectrum security solutions rather than individual products.
