Reinforcement for Glass Government & Military Doors & Windows
Government and military facilities are some of the most secure out there, but they’re only as strong as their glass doors and windows. Without the proper security glazing, armed intruders, burglars, and mobs of rioters can easily smash through glass to gain entry to a facility.
In the best case scenario, this results in expensive cleanup, repairs, and glass replacement. In the worst case, it can result in loss of life and breaches of classified information.
This is why it’s of the utmost importance to install some type of security glass for military and government facilities.
For any type of high-security facility, the proper security glazing mitigates the above threats to protect the property, its employees, and all the valuable equipment and information inside.
Riot Glass® Ballistic-Grade & Containment-Grade Glazing Shields
Riot Glass® offers a full range of security glazing solutions for government facilities and other high-security properties.
We recognize that not every facility has the same security concerns or goals. That’s why our products are available in containment-grade (non-ballistic) and a variety of ballistic-grade options.
A containment-grade glazing shield will not stop bullets, but it can still act as an impassable barrier and keep bad guys out after being riddled with bullets.
Our ballistic-grade glazing shields are available with UL ratings up through a UL 752 Level 7 rating.
Security glass for military and government facilities with a UL 752 Level 7 rating can resist a high-speed, multi-shot barrage of bullets from an AK-47 rifle using .308 150-grain military rounds.
When you install Riot Glass®, the existing glass is protected behind an incredibly impact-resistant glazing shield. Whether it’s a mob of rioters, an active threat, or any other would-be intruder, they won’t be able to easily gain entry to your facility through Riot Glass®.
Even if an attacker is able to penetrate the glazing shields with bullets or otherwise, they cannot be easily dislodged or passed through.
This creates a valuable delay to entry that allows employees inside your facility to react by evacuating or barricading themselves inside a safe area. It also gives security personnel, military, or police time to neutralize the threat.
Retrofit Riot Protection for Government Facilities
If the events of the past few years have taught us anything, it’s that civil unrest and rioting can happen anywhere and at any time. We’ve also seen first-hand how even the most secure government buildings, like the US Capitol, often don’t have a sufficient level of glass security.
High-security properties need a way to upgrade their glass doors and windows without doing a full replacement. That’s where Riot Glass® comes in.
Riot Glass® is designed to be retrofitted into or onto almost any existing framing system. There’s almost never any need to replace glass doors and windows and their frames, unless the building is very old and the framing has deteriorated.
Retrofitting your facility with Riot Glass® drastically increases its security in the face of rioters. Your property and its employees will stay safe the next time unexpected civil unrest flares up.
Security Glazing for Detention Centers & Correctional Facilities
Riot Glass® is also a perfect solution for detention centers and correctional facilities. Our secure detention products are ideal for containment cell windows, guard rooms, surveillance rooms, and anywhere else you need secure separation between inmates and employees.
If there’s ever a riot or a security breach within your detention center or correctional facility, Riot Glass® adds layers of protection at strategic points that keep guards and other employees safe until the situation is under control.
Unlike bars, cages, grills, and gates, Riot Glass® lets you retain full visibility and allows unobstructed natural light in. Being able to see what is going on creates an even more secure environment to keep employees and detainees safe and secure at all times.
Benefits of Riot Glass® Security Glass for Military & Government Facilities
No matter what level of Riot Glass® protection you choose for your facility, there are plenty of other benefits besides its incredible impact resistance.
All Riot Glass® looks and feels just like standard window glass, so it doesn’t change the appearance of the building, block out light, or inhibit views. Not only that, but Riot Glass® can also block out harmful UV rays and reduce glare from the sun.
