Bullet proof glass is often a term used when looking for a glass that can prevent a bullet from penetrating through. This term is somewhat misleading as technically, this glass is called bullet-resistant glass or ballistics glass. However, depending on your specific bullet-resistant glass application, we will recommend the ideal thickness to help protect your home, guard house or business against bullets.

Bullet resistant glass varies in price depending on the thickness and size. It can be a costly exercise to install bullet resistant glass. Speak to us and we will work together to create a cost-effective solution for your application without compromising on product quality. Protection and peace of mind always outweigh the costs involved.

Our bullet resistant glass is a strong, optically transparent material designed to resist penetration by projectiles. It is made from a combination of layers including:

– Polycarbonate: A composite lightweight, transparent plastic known for its high impact resistance. 
– Laminate Glass: This consists of multiple layers, with the outer layer providing rigidity and the inner layer absorbing shock. 

This process involves stacking these materials and bonding them together using heat and pressure, creating a strong barrier than can withstand multiple shots from firearms. Bullet-resistant glass is commonly used in security applications such as banks, military vehicles, anti-bandit doors, mining industries, retail and any high risk security buildings. 

There are varying levels of protection provides against certain types of guns. For instance, thinner glass will provide protection against handguns, whereas thicker glass will protect against rifles and bigger caliber guns. Find out more in our guide below.

Bullet resistant glass, a.k.a “bullet proof glass” is incredibly heavy but it depends on the thickness and size. Because bullet-resistant glass is heavy, some sizes may be limited depending on the application.
