Select Riot Glass® (RG-Series) makeups can be made in oversize versions up to 128" x 300". RG Series and ArmorPlast® (AP-Series) products that feature our polycarbonates are limited to 72" x 120". If window openings exceed that size, we simply reconfigure the mullions using our AP-Series support mullions specifically designed to accommodate our Universal Framing System (UFS).
The RG-Series and AP-Series all look like regular glass. Depending on the thickness, visual acuity can be slightly affected, but overall you won’t see a distinguishable difference. Yellowing is not a concern and is covered by the warranty. For added safety, both series allow police and patrol services to see inside your property. Privacy tints are available as an option in most Riot Glass products.
Traditional cleaning methods work on all types of RG-Series and AP-Series. All of our security glass products have a protective outer layer to avoid scratching and marring. The process is similar to caring for a new car. You put it through all kinds of paces every day, but you do so with care and attention to detail. Treat security glass the way you would the finish on a fine automobile and you’ll enjoy years of trouble-free service. Always follow the cleaning instructions that come with your Riot Glass purchases for optimal product longevity.
Warranties vary by product and can also change depending on the application. Your Riot Glass security specialist will provide details on both warranty coverage and life expectancy for your specific product needs.
All of our products have been thoroughly tested in highly accredited laboratory settings and, more importantly, in real-world situations. While there are no ironclad guarantees, every retail store, commercial building, and school needs some level of security glass protection. Security glazing products are designed to delay and deter, and in many cases are the determining factor between life and death.
Our security specialists will do a complete threat assessment, discuss your goals, and provide a detailed, easy-to-read proposal. We will also measure your windows and frames, then evaluate the overall condition and retrofit adaptability to determine the best solution for your property.
It depends on which product you select and where the graphics are displayed. During the site inspection, our expert security consultant will advise whether graphics must be removed and replaced or stay intact.
Underwriters Laboratories™ offers multiple ballistic rating levels. Designed to measure bullet resistance, ballistic ratings factor in the grain (weight), caliber, and velocity of the ammunition. Non-ballistic (containment grade) products allow bullet penetration, but won’t break down or appreciably diminish in strength. In other words, the bullets leave holes, but the panels remain intact, keeping intruders out of the building.
