High-Tech Security Windows and Doors

From Burglar Proof to Bullet Resistant.


The Problem Area of Burglar-Proofing:

Your property needs protection. Security windows make break-ins difficult and give peace of mind! Windows are normally the weakest static construction element in a house or business and are therefore the favored point of entry for burglars and thieves. Modern window technology counteracts these problems and dangers with individual and effective solutions. An investment in high-tech security windows is the most important step in safeguarding your family and property. Find out for yourself.

Our standard A 3 level security glass is tested and certified to DIN specification 52290 and International Patent Classification G 01 N 33/38. Included is a lowE coating with a rating of 1,1N40 with 57% UV-ray reflection. Optional with "Sun-Stop" coating , stopping 73% of the sun rays (silver color), 61% (neutral color) and 55% (blue color).For a sample window of 4' x3' add $ 75.00. For tables on different security levels, please visit: Technical Information.

A 3 burglar proof windows have noise suppression values of 41 dB!! This means a 87.5% noise reduction measured against our standard 32 dB window.

Components which distinguish a security window from a standard window:

- Multi-Chamber frame with steel inlays and A 3 burglar proof security glass
