HD Ballistic™ Level 3 Sliding Door

Architects and specifiers designing for high-security environments need solutions that deliver uncompromising safety, compliance, and functionality. Horton Automatics delivers exactly that with the HD Ballistic™ Level 3 Sliding Door, the first-to-market sliding aluminum-and-glass bullet resistant doors certified to UL 752 Level 3 standards. This innovative system combines robust security with architectural aesthetics, ensuring performance without sacrificing design.

UL 752 is the industry benchmark for bullet-resisting equipment. A Level 3 rating means the door system can withstand medium-power handgun rounds, such as .44 Magnum, making it ideal for:

• Government buildings
• Financial institutions
• Healthcare facilities
• High-risk commercial spaces

Horton’s ballistic door system was tested as a fully operational assembly, not just individual components. The evaluation included:

• Vision panels and ballistic glazing
• Structural framing and hardware interfaces
• Horton’s heavy-duty S2001 sliding door mechanism

This ensures architects can specify a solution that performs as a unified system under real-world conditions.

The HD Ballistic™ Level 3 Sliding Door passed rigorous testing designed to simulate actual threats:

• Multiple impacts concentrated within a tight shot grouping
• Specified calibers fired from controlled distances
• System-level integrity checks, confirming no bullet or fragment penetration

The result? Verified compliance with UL 752 Level 3 standards.

The tested configuration featured Horton’s S2001 heavy-duty slide mechanism, engineered for high-performance specialty doors. It operated flawlessly during ballistic testing, proving that enhanced security doesn’t compromise smooth operation.

• UL 752 Level 3 certified for bullet resistance
• Integrated design for seamless performance
• Decades of expertise in specialty door systems

Set the standard for security and design with Horton’s HD Ballistic™ Level 3 Sliding Door-the first-to-market sliding aluminum-and-glass bullet-resistant door certified to UL 752 Level 3 standards.
