The ballistic armoring field is relatively small, made up of small companies - and everyone wants your business. You can buy from catalogs, factory direct or distributors. But most importantly you need a professional to guide you through the minefields.

Initially, adding bullet resistant armoring may seem simple and there are those who have tried to make it appear no different from other building materials. In actuality, the bullet resistant field is very complex. This is why reputable companies use Underwriters Laboratories Standard 752 (UL-752) as their guide. They understand the difference between LISTED and MEETS and don't use other testing facilities as being comparable to UL. It is also why they don't say bullet proof.

While not all of the components in a ballistic enclosure need to be UL listed, the major ones, such as the transparent and opaque materials that make up the bulk of the armoring materials, should carry that label. As an example, Bullet Guard's attachments may not be UL-752, but they are backed by UL-752 materials. It is always the UL-752 material that is the protecting agent.

Whether it is water resistant, fire resistant or child resistant, nothing is considered "proof" anymore. Therefore, bullet resistant is the terminology used by the protective armoring industry. This does not mean that the product is less than proof. It does mean that the manufacturer, designer and fabricator understand their craft and are conscientious about sending the right message to the customer: Nothing is proof! Even though armorers cannot guarantee to stop all types of bullets with one system, they should guarantee to make every system as proof as possible to the threat level. Bullet Guard Corporation makes that guarantee. Contact Bullet Guard Corp for assistance on your project.
