When you need to protect what matters most, you can trust bulletproof fiberglass to withstand ballistic impact.
Also referred to as bullet-resistant or ballistic fiberglass, these panels are made of reinforced structural polyester laminate and can withstand extreme impact.

Ballistic fiberglass panels can be used anywhere there is the potential for an assault. Businesses and facilities like financial institutions, courtrooms, police stations, prisons, convenience stores, check-cashing businesses, and more use bullet-resistant panels to safeguard against intrusion and ballistic attacks.

How Our Bulletproof Fiberglass Panels Keep You Safe
Our bulletproof fiberglass panels are made from a combination of fiberglass and resin. Panels are cured using heat and pressure, creating an incredibly strong woven material. When fired upon, this material “catches” a bullet by absorbing its energy within the tightly-woven layers. The result is a controlled event with no spalling or penetration through to the secure side.

Common Applications for Ballistic Panels
Where there’s a threat, there’s an application for bulletproof fiberglass. Reinforce virtually any area, including, but not limited to:

  • Booths and entry vestibules

  • Reception areas

  • Conference rooms

  • Podiums and desks

  • Countertops

  • Walls

  • Safe rooms and panic rooms


Want to reinforce existing areas? No problem. In addition to new construction projects, we can retrofit ballistic panels to blend perfectly with your space and your aesthetics.

Ballistic Fiberglass Is Available in a Variety of Strengths
Our selection of bulletproof fiberglass panels protects against impact from a bullet, blast, or forced entry. Products are tested according to UL-752 and ASTM E 119 standards.

Bandit Barriers  

Bandit barriers offer a way to incorporate customized protection and access control for teller lines in banks or convenience stores. Based on perceived threat levels, we can manufacture a simple transaction window or a complete site-specific barrier suitable for installation in any teller line. We can also provide bullet-resistant modular lobby enclosures to protect employees who may have their desks in the lobby area.

What Are Bandit Barriers?
Bandit barriers are manufactured using clear, bullet-resistant materials that enhance or add to the security infrastructure of a building. It physically separates the area in front of a counter to provide a secure space for protecting employees and other valuables. Bandit barriers are commonly used in banks, convenience stores, and other places with transaction window counters that require ballistic protection services.

Various materials are used in the manufacturing of bandit barriers that range in protection levels against multiple kinds of attacks. Bullet Guard provides bandit barriers catered to the level of protection needed in your facility. Customers don’t always need top-of-the-line protection systems; therefore, we offer lower-level protection systems to give you peace of mind at a lower cost.

Bandit Barrier Advantages & Benefits
Including bandit barriers into your infrastructure offers many advantages, including:

  • Deter robberies. The statistics show that banks with bandit barriers see fewer robberies. According to statistics from the FBI, bank robberies accounted for 2.1% of all robberies in the U.S. a decade ago. Today, they account for 1.8%, and there is a lower average value in bank robberies.

  • Reduce the need for armed guards. Armed guards can create a more hostile environment and can unnecessarily escalate a situation. Bandit barriers are much less intimidating for non-threats but just as effective for real threats. Using bandit barriers saves you money in the long run when compared to hiring armed guards.

  • Creates a safer environment that increases productivity. Employees who do not have the added stress and anxiety of worrying about their safety at work will be more productive. The protective physical barrier from the unpredictable public adds a sense of security to employees working on the front line.

  • Protects assets and lives. Bandit barriers not only protect the lives of employees, they also protect physical assets such as cash, jewelry, or guns.


Understanding all threats involved with your business will help determine a protection plan that is best for you and your business’s needs.

Bullet-Resistant Windows & Transaction Windows  

Bullet-resistant transaction windows help protect service workers in face-to-face industries from ballistic threats. While “bullet-resistant” is the usual industry term, you may also hear ballistic windows described as “bulletproof.” Both terms refer to the same thing—transparent material designed to resist the penetration of bullets.

Typically made from acrylic or polycarbonate, bullet-resistant windows can be manufactured in a variety of configurations and protection levels. Special optical qualities, UV protection, and thermal resistance can also be added to meet specific application needs. Whether you need ballistic glass windows for a government facility or bulletproof sliding windows for a convenience store, the experts at Bullet Guard can help you choose the best option for your next project.

Bullet Guard Transaction Windows
Our bullet-resistant transaction windows are available in two standard sizes: 24” by 36” and 30” by 36”. Adhering to UL-752 standards, we manufacture windows suitable for applications in financial institutions, check cashing counters, pharmacies, fast food services counters, government, and more.

Transaction Windows with Voice Ports
For enabling natural sound transmission without the use of amplified intercoms, our transaction windows feature rectangular, circular, arched, horizontal, or vertical voice ports. We also specialize in manufacturing transaction windows with voice surround options.

Our standard transaction windows are available with U-channels, stainless steel recessed deal trays, and plastic laminate or stainless steel countertops. The U-channels are available in 1”, 1 3/8”, 1 1/4”, and 3 1/4” thicknesses for accommodating glazing materials such as polycarbonate, glass-clad polycarbonate, acrylic, or laminated glass.

Sliding Transaction Window

Bullet-resistant sliding windows are suitable for installation in high-traffic areas including law, government, or medical facilities. Our sliding windows are available in protection levels 1 through 3.

Custom Transaction Systems
We can fabricate custom transaction windows in sizes of up to 8’ by 5’ with different types of aluminum, slip steel, or telescoping steel frame systems. Upon request, we can also provide custom storefront systems that separate teller lines from public access. Other system components could include architectural armor for below the counter, teller hood protection for an added layer of security, and accessories like currency trays and package passers.

Accessories & Components  

No bullet-resistant barrier system is complete without accessories to enhance appearance and functionality.

Deal Trays
For added security requirements, we offer deal trays for use in combination with our other security products such as the transaction windows and the security enclosures. These trays are made from stainless steel and come in stock sizes of 10” x 12” and 10” x 16”. Two types of stainless steel deal trays are available, one is the recessed deal tray with a 1 1/2” depth recess, and the other is a 2 1/4” high surface mount deal tray.

Besides the standard sizes, we can also produce customized sizes to suit your specific needs.

Package Exchanges
Package exchanges are provided in standard and non-standard models for specific product handling in banking, fast food, convenient stores, post offices, cash vaults, and other similar applications. We stock four different standard models in widths ranging from 12” to 22 “and heights from 14” to 16.” Transparent materials in UL-752 levels 1-3 and opaque materials in UL-level-8 are used to make these exchanges. Custom package exchange units can be provided with aluminum frames and double interlocking doors wherein the custom interlocking device allows only one door to be open at a time.

Industries  

Bullet Guard has been manufacturing bullet-resistant products since 1976 and we have always put our customers’ needs first. Our decades of experience allow us to provide only the most innovative solutions for bank security today. Whether you need a new window or door system installed or want to upgrade your older glass, Bullet Guard provides an affordable solution no matter how complex your specifications may be.

Bullet-Resistant Glass for Banks & Financial Centers
Because banks have cash and valuables on site, they are prime targets for crime and robberies. Banks can benefit from protective countertop technologies, specialty doors, and bullet-resistant windows. Bullet-resistant glass can help protect a financial institution’s assets as well as those who are working there.

Although no material is completely “bulletproof”, bullet-resistant glass can usually withstand many ballistic rounds without shattering or spalling. These materials may be utilized to secure the entire institution against nighttime break-ins or when an outside hazard exists. Employees who work in customer service areas benefit from their use as they provide a protective barrier in the customer care zone while also allowing for smooth interactions.

Bank teller security glazing or bandit barriers are utilized to provide a defensive barrier between personnel at financial institutions and their customers. It’s usually made of 1 ¼” to 1 ⅜” transparent acrylic sheet or laminated polycarbonate that can handle ballistic impact and forced entry. Bulletproof glass can help keep tellers and other employees safe.

Bulletproof Windows & Doors for Banks & Financial Centers
Bulletproof glass and doors for banks are essential. Financial institutions must defend themselves against a variety of hazardous situations, including theft and violence against employees. They may be used to seal off the whole institution in order to prevent break-ins after hours or while there is an external threat.

They can also provide protection for workers who operate in contact-facing roles by providing a safe barrier in the consumer service region while still allowing for seamless communications. They may also shield individuals when there is an emergency or lockdown situation inside.

Transaction Windows & Doors at Bullet Guard Corporation
Bulletproof and bullet-resistant doors and windows are one crucial way to provide additional safety to a building. At Bullet Guard, we offer bullet-resistant doors that are available in various levels of protection, so you can easily find something that suits your needs. These bullet-resistant products are designed to allow quick installation in banks in comparison to ballistic-rated steel. A bank can be provided with either one of these products or can choose to install both types of bullet-resistant products on their premises.

We are proud to partner with law enforcement agencies across the country to provide them with the bulletproof and bullet-resistant windows and doors they need to keep their employees safe. With over 40 years of experience in the bulletproof barrier systems industry, Bullet Guard has the knowledge and expertise to help secure any police station interior using the latest in bulletproof technology. Regardless of how big or small your project is, we can work with you to determine your security needs and deliver the appropriate solution.

Bulletproof Glass for Police Stations
Due to the nature of police stations, threats are always a risk. People in high-stress situations can panic and respond in a way that puts officers, visitors, and other staff in danger. Because of this possibility, it’s crucial to secure police station lobbies with custom bulletproof barriers to boost safety and security.

Bulletproof glass is composed of three main designs: glass-clad polycarbonate, solid acrylic, and polycarbonate laminate. Glass-clad polycarbonate is made up of a polycarbonate sheet sandwiched between two sheets of glass. The polycarbonate provides additional support for the glass while offering a stronger barrier than the glass alone.

Polycarbonate and acrylic are available in various blends and formulas, and they are manufactured in a wide range of thicknesses to suit different impact resistance requirements. Two of our most popular polycarbonate plastics include Hygard™ and Lexgard™.

When developing a bulletproof system for police stations, it’s important to do the following:

  • Use Level 3 bulletproof polycarbonate for interior applications and glass-clad polycarbonate for exterior applications

  • Secure the front entrance and vestibule area with automatic locking mechanisms and bullet-resistant doors

  • Rather than securing every window, focus on securing potential weak spots within heavy traffic areas of the police station

  • Incorporate a barrier system around the dispatch areas and front lobby to protect on-duty officers


Bullet-Resistant Doors for Police Stations
Police stations are exposed to potentially violent individuals on a day-to-day basis. To keep police officers and other staff safe, it’s important for these facilities to incorporate bulletproof barrier systems. At Bullet Guard, we offer custom and ready-to-ship bulletproof and bullet-resistant doors that offer additional safety for police stations. These doors are available in a range of sizes and protection levels, enabling you to choose the type of door that works best for your facility.
