BULLET-RESISTANT SLIDING SECURITY DOORS: THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR EVERY BUILDING PROJECT

Firearms are easy to obtain and use. Criminal police statistics show that firearms were used in more than 4,000 cases across Germany in 2021.

Hans Timm Fensterbau offers you bullet-resistant security sliding doors in wood, wood-aluminum, aluminum and steel to protect human life from short and long guns.

Thanks to our own research and development and our decades of experience in the high-security property business, our bullet-resistant security sliding doors have slim face widths across all materials.

All of our bullet-resistant sliding security doors are certified by independent bulletproofing authorities, e.g. the German Federal Firearms Office. The firearms authorities in Ulm and Mellrichtstadt tested and certified in accordance with DIN EN 1522/1523.

A ballistic assessment is carried out during the bullet penetration tests:

  1. of the bullet and splinter exit of the window frame construction,
  2. their fillings (e.g. glass or panel filling),
  3. the connection area between the panel and frame and
  4. the connection of the sash to the frame.

Timm security sliding doors can also be realized in the combination of bullet resistance and burglary. The security technology we have developed is initially undetectable and remains hidden from the perpetrators. In the event of threats, on the other hand, our security sliding doors guarantee certified protection up to the highest resistance classes.

Another option to increase the security of the building and thus the protection against bullets is the use of electronic security components (including alarm glass, alarm sensors, magnetic contacts, bolt contacts), which can be integrated invisibly into the constructions of our security sliding doors. By installing these security components, the doors are monitored for opening, locking and breaching/shooting. The components used here correspond to the valid VdS classes A, B & C.

Our own patented security components for increased convenience and security against break-ins round off our portfolio.

Our references in the field of burglar-resistant sliding security doors include federal institutions (e.g. federal ministries, offices of various constitutional bodies), EU country representations, German embassies, residences of German ambassadors, residential properties of members of various federal and state constitutional bodies, people at risk from politics, business and other areas of public life, courts, police and military facilities and Jewish institutions.

Convince yourself of the quality of our bullet-resistant security sliding doors and visit us in our showroom. We offer you detailed security advice in a private atmosphere.

HIGH SECURITY IN PERFECTION

Tested and certified, object testing possible

Test for bullet resistance. The tests for the certification of bullet-resistant sliding doors are carried out in accordance with DIN EN 1522 / 1523 at independent ballistics offices, e.g. the Ulm Procurement Office and the Mellrichtstadt Procurement Office.

Narrowest views despite high security

TIMM security sliding doors also impress with their delicate design, so that our security sliding doors generally do not differ from standard sliding doors. With our slim face widths, we enable a visually appealing and unobtrusive external appearance.

Timm Fensterbau: bullet-resistant security sliding doors - can be combined with burglar resistance

Can be combined with burglar resistance and many additional features

Thanks to “multi-certification” and our high level of expertise, our TIMM security sliding doors can be combined with requirements for protection against burglary, fire and smoke protection or explosion. In addition, our Timm security sliding doors can be equipped with many additional components (e.g. alarm glass, monitoring contacts) that monitor opening, locking and breakthrough.

OUR HIGH-QUALITY SECURITY SLIDING DOORS ARE TESTED for bullet resistance

The tests for the certification of bullet-resistant windows are carried out in accordance with DIN EN 1522 / 1523 at independent ballistics offices, e.g. the Ulm Procurement Office and the Mellrichtstadt Procurement Office.

MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENTS FOR SLIDING SAFETY DOORS

Glazing

Bullet-resistant elements must be fitted with appropriate bullet-resistant glazing in accordance with DIN EN 1522.

The combination of different laminated glasses and intermediate layers decelerate the spheres/projectiles to such an extent that penetration is prevented. Thermal insulation, lighting conditions and design are not visibly impaired on the outside and we manage to achieve a certified resistance class up to FB7 without compromising on design and functionality.

Frames & fittings

Not only the glazing, but also the frames and fittings must meet high security requirements. To meet these requirements, the frame made of wood, wood-aluminum, aluminum and steel must also be bullet-resistant thanks to special safety technology and components. We have been able to have this technology successfully certified through years of development and thus complete the bullet-resistant glazing with bullet-resistant frames. and fittings…

Wall connection

The standard for bullet resistance in accordance with DIN EN 1522 does not provide any information on the bullet resistance of the wall connections.

During the planning stage, care should be taken to ensure that the wall connection hasat least the same resistance class against bullet penetration as the sliding door itself.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT AS AN EXTENDED SAFETY MEASURE

Magnetic contacts

Magnetic locking and opening monitoring systems offer individual solutions for intrusion and hazard detection.

The systems monitor the status of the window or sliding element for opening and closing

The components used here comply with the valid VdS classes A, B & C.

Alarm glass

Alarm glass is toughened glass (ESG) that is equipped with an alarm spider (glass breakage detector).

This can be either visible or completely concealed.

The components used here comply with the valid VdS classes C.

SAFETY GLASS WITH BULLET RESISTANCE

Our bullet-resistant security windows are fitted with safety glass in accordance with DIN EN 1063.

Higher-quality safety glazing can also be installed at the customer’s request.

Bullet-resistant glass is divided within its resistance class into glass with shatter resistance (S) and glass without shatter resistance (NS).

Our bullet-resistant constructions always use glass of the higher NS classification.

WE USE THREE TYPES OF SAFETY GLASS FOR OUR SAFETY WINDOWS, SAFETY DOORS AND SAFETY LIFT AND SLIDE SYSTEMS

Toughened
Safety glass (ESG)

Toughened safety glass (TSG) is a thermally toughened soda-lime glass in which a strong internal tension is built up through heat treatment. This significantly increases temperature, impact and shock resistance compared to normal float glass. When it breaks, it disintegrates into small, compact cubes, effectively reducing the risk of cuts and impact injuries.

Toughened safety glass (ESG) is mainly used for alarm glass.

Advantages

of toughened safety glass (ESG)

  • Use with alarm glass
  • Increased impact and shock resistance
  • Insensitive to temperature differences
  • Increased flexural strength

In the event of breakage, ESG shatters into many small blunt fragments and triggers the alarm.

Compound
Safety glass (VSG)

Laminated safety glass (LSG) consists of two or more panes with interlayers in between. This is referred to as glass-foil-glass bonding. The number of highly elastic polyvinyl butyral (PVB) films can vary according to the resistance class. The panes are becoming thicker and heavier depending on the safety requirements.

Advantages

of laminated safety glass (VSG)

  • Fragments adhere to foil
  • Bullet-resistant (depending on thickness)
  • Speech inhibiting (depending on thickness)
  • Higher sound insulation

Increased burglary protection, minimized risk of injury.

Polycarbonate
glass (PC)

Polycarbonate (PC) is a thermoplastic and is used in particular when classic laminated safety glass reaches its limits (too thick, too heavy) or customers have a special need for protection.

Polycarbonate glass combines the special properties of glass and polycarbonate. Glass is very scratch-resistant and rigid. Polycarbonate, on the other hand, is very light, impact-resistant and has a relatively soft surface. The combination of the two materials results in very good and highly transparent safety glass that impresses with its high resistance.

Advantages

of polycarbonate glass (PC)

  • Permanently elastic bonding between glass and PC,
    Glass = scratch-resistant + rigid, PC = impact-resistant
  • Very burglar-proof
  • Very bulletproof
  • Very light
  • High strength and rigidity
  • Excellent impact strength

High protection against burglary attempts
