Secure Building Technologies

In today’s evolving security landscape, secure building technologies such as blast and ballistic window and glazing systems as well as forced entry and deterrent doors, windows and assemblies have become essential for protecting structures against a variety of threats. 

Building Solutions Experts has an extensive portfolio of design build specialty projects in this area. Blast-resistant window systems are designed to withstand the force of explosive detonations, minimizing damage and ensuring occupant safety. These systems are engineered with advanced materials and multi-layered construction techniques that absorb and dissipate the energy from blasts, preventing shattering and reducing the risk of flying debris. This protective measure is crucial for high-risk buildings, such as government facilities, financial institutions, private enterprise, private research and development facilities, data centers and private federal and public law enforcement agencies. We offer critical infrastructure, where safety and security are paramount.

Similarly, bullet-resistant glazing systems offer enhanced protection against firearms and ballistic threats. These systems are constructed using specialized laminated glass or polycarbonate materials that can withstand high-velocity impacts without breaking or allowing bullets to penetrate. Bullet-resistant glazing is commonly used in areas where high security is required, including police stations, embassies, and armored vehicles. 

By integrating these technologies into building designs, facility managers and architects can significantly increase the resilience of their structures, providing both physical protection and peace of mind in the face of potential security threats.
