About Bullet Resistant Glass
Bullet resistant glass looks quite similar to any ordinary glass. What makes it different is its ability to stop one or more bullets, depending on the firearm used, from penetrating it. Manufacturers create the glasses in various strengths and thicknesses to protect against physical attacks. The strength of each glass depends on how much polycarbonate material is used. The glass is definitely designed with the protection and safety of customers in mind. When it comes to protection from dangerous weapons and unlawful intruders, having windows and doors with bullet resistant capacity is the best solution.
Here are three reasons why bullet resistant glass is beneficial:
1. When it comes to the first line of defense against bullets, detonations, and other unwanted attacks, fabricated security glasses take on the job effectively.
2. Bullet resistant glass absorbs the impact of any high impact object, which makes it more secure than regular glass.
3.Glasses that are fabricated to withstand bullet impact, forced entry, bomb blasts, attempted assault, and the like can protect anyone within its enclosure
