Protected Windows
Protect Glazed Openings Against Blast, Ballistic & Forced-Entry Threats
Protected windows combine specialized glazing and reinforced frames to help resist threats at vulnerable building openings. Philadelphia Safety Devices offers blast-resistant, bullet-resistant, and forced-entry-rated window systems, along with cable-catch systems that help reduce hazards from blast-driven glass fragments.
Solutions are available for government buildings, banks, embassies, industrial facilities, critical infrastructure, safe rooms, and private residences. Window dimensions, operating styles, appearance, and protection levels can be tailored to the application, with selected configurations addressing multiple threats.
