Interior lobby security and access control is our specialty. Our Step by Step process and capabilities are outlined below. Call us at (800) 233-5632. Step 1 Consultation on Levels of Threat and Design Implications The first thing that an architect or builder has to determine from the user is what is the anticipated threat level.

UL Ballistic Levels are Level 1 through 8. Most commonly used are:
The staff at Bullet Guard will assist you through the determination of the appropriate Ballistic Level for your project. Our live fire testing facility is available to assist you in the decision making process. Underwriters' Laboratories is an independent laboratory whose standard UL 752 is used as the industry standard for architectural bullet resistant applications in determining different levels of protection by caliber and velocity of weapon. Step 2 Design & Owner Acceptance Use our experience to design applications that perform We can supply your location with a very simple transaction window or a complete site-specific-designed enclosure suitable for a bank, an embassy, an office lobby or other commercial application.
