Protection
from today's
modern threats
Security
Shield window barriers are a viable option for protection from
flying glass and debris when mounted to a structure's interior. Independent
laboratory bomb blast tests performed in the wake of the tragic events
of September 11th, 2001 have proven that when installed on a window's interior,
Security Shield window barriers reduce
potentially lethal flying glass to mere shards and dust, thus increasing
the odds of surviving such an event.
The world is ever
changing. Security has become part of our culture. From terrorism bomb
blast to weapon and drug "pass thru" protection, no one scores
higher than Exeter Window Barriers.
Now more than ever
the word security has taken on a whole new definition. Force protection
plans need critical updating. Exeter developed a product that not
only resists the awesome strength of nature, but serves as a gauntlet
to the criminal element. Governmental agencies recognize the value of
protecting not only property but far more valuable...life itself. This
is a comprehensive 24/7 solution to making window entry no longer an option.
From essential facility force protection, to the estates of dignitaries
and government officials, this is the first step in any anti-terrorism
plan. Secure your surroundings. Period.

Conclusions:
- Screen on interior face of window effective in preventing large glass
fragments but does allow heavy dusting. Film would prevent this from occurring..
- Maximum capacity P=6 psi, I=51 psi-ms.
- Existing design exceeds GSA Category C blast load and hazard level requirement
- With attachment modifications, may reach GSA category D P=10 psi, I=88
psi-ms.
