Bulletproof Projects
When considering the next steps for your project, whether it’s a renovation or a new construction, CRS offers a unique solution with bulletproof fiberglass, enhancing safety without compromising on aesthetics or budget. This material stands out for its durability and cost-effectiveness, making it an ideal choice for a wide array of settings where security is paramount but must blend seamlessly with the environment.
Bullet-resistant fiberglass from CRS is engineered to be hidden behind common architectural features such as drywall, millwork, countertops, and other decorative elements. This strategic integration allows for a discreet yet effective barrier against ballistic threats. The fiberglass is an unfinished, opaque product, designed to be unnoticeable at first glance, providing a layer of protection that does not scream “security” but quietly works to safeguard those within.
This material transforms the concept of security from visible, possibly intimidating measures to an integrated, subtle approach. By doing so, it not only protects law enforcement officers, judicial staff, and civilians from gunfire but does so without alerting or alarming an intruder until it’s too late for them.
CRS has a proven track record of supplying bulletproofing solutions to a diverse clientele, including courthouses, police departments, insurance companies, and various government agencies. Here’s how we’ve tailored our bulletproofing solutions:
Courthouses: Given the nature of legal proceedings and the potential for volatile situations, courthouses require robust security measures. CRS provides bulletproofing that can range from Level 1 to Level 8 under the UL 752 standard, ensuring that areas like judge benches, witness stands, and public access points are shielded from handgun threats up to high-caliber rifle fire, depending on the assessed risk.
Police Departments: Law enforcement facilities often face threats from both outside and within. Here, bulletproofing levels are chosen based on the department’s location and potential threats. For instance, Level 3 bulletproofing can stop multiple shots from a .44 Magnum, suitable for areas where handgun threats are more common, whereas Level 5 or above might be used in high-threat areas expecting rifle attacks.
Insurance Companies: Given their handling of sensitive information and cash, insurance offices might opt for Level 1-3 bulletproofing for their front desks or secure rooms to protect against handgun threats, ensuring both client and staff safety.
Government Agencies: From local to federal levels, these entities often require high levels of security. Depending on the agency’s function, we might install Level 4 to Level 8 bulletproofing. For example, an embassy might need Level 8 to withstand multiple shots from military-grade rifles, while a less high-profile office might be secured with Level 4 for protection against .30 caliber rifle threats.
The implementation of bulletproof fiberglass by CRS is not just about stopping bullets; it’s about creating environments where security is omnipresent yet unobtrusive. This allows for the continuation of daily activities without the constant reminder of potential threats. Our products cater to the nuanced needs of each project, offering customization in size and bulletproofing level to match the specific security requirements of any installation. Whether you’re looking to protect personnel in a high-risk environment or simply adding a layer of precautionary defense, CRS’s bulletproof fiberglass solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly into your architectural vision while providing peace of mind.
