Bullet Resistant, Electronically Operated, Sliding, Steel Doors Manufactured in Response to Major Security Issues
August 1, 2002: AMBICO Limited has responded to major security concerns of federal government agencies by engineering and manufacturing unique bullet resistant doors.
The design required by our client was for electronically operated, sliding, bullet resistant, steel doors in an area where the doors would be an integral part of the facility's electronically operated security access system.
The doors for this facility required specialized engineering and design for a number of reasons:
- bullet resistant doors with bullet resistant glazing (windows)
- specified UL752 (Level 3) bullet resistance performance rating
- electronically operated as an integral part of the security system of the building, with logic control boards in the operators
- sliding steel doors, engineered for minimum weight while meeting required performance levels
- all hardware included to provide a total opening solution
- edge security shields included to secure the gap between the door panel and the finished wall
- valance included to cover track and operating system
In this case, AMBICO Limited responded to the unique requirements of the owner. All specifications were met in the design and manufacture of these doors. Although a performance rating of Level 3 was required for the above project, AMBICO is able to attain performance ratings to the highest level of bullet resistance (Level 8) in its door and frame products.
AMBICO Limited specializes in the manufacture of door and frame products which respond to a number of security issues and which are required by a variety of end users. These specialized products include: bullet resistant doors and frames; blast resistant doors and frames; acoustic wood and steel doors and frames; and lead lined doors and frames.
