Best practice: specify the complete glazing assembly—not glass alone. Performance depends on glazing, interlayers, frame design,
anchorage, installation and the applicable test/performance criteria.

BANK TELLER SECURITY WINDOWS
Secure transactions without sacrificing visibility or usability
What a high-security teller window should deliver
BALLISTIC PROTECTION SPALL CONTROL
Guardian’s transaction-window systems are designed for banks, financial institutions, government service counters,
Available configurations can be specified to recognized Polycarbonate or anti-spall layers can help retain
ticketing areas, retail and other environments where people need to interact through a protected opening.

BLAST PROOF GLASS
Laminated glazing engineered to mitigate blast-related hazards
How laminated blast-resistant glazing works
Blast-resistant glazing does not stop an explosion. Its purpose is to help resist blast pressure, retain glass fragments
and reduce injury risk while maintaining architectural functionality.
BLAST ENERGY ABSORPTION
OUTER GLASS PLY Multi-layer laminated construction is designed to
manage blast energy and dynamic loading.
Receives and distributes initial impact
LAMINATED INTERLAYER
FRAGMENT RETENTION
Absorbs energy and helps retain fragments
Interlayers help hold broken glass together and
reduce dangerous glass fallout.
INNER GLASS PLY
Adds structural integrity to the assembly
OPTICAL PERFORMANCE
High optical clarity supports daylight, visibility and
architectural integration.
The exact glass build-up, interlayer, thickness, framing and
anchorage should be selected through project-specific threat
assessment and engineering. CUSTOM ENGINEERING
Dimensions, thicknesses, glazing assemblies and
frames can be adapted to project requirements.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Match the glazing system to the threat, operation and building
Quick decision matrix
APPLICATION PRIMARY SYSTEM KEY SPECIFICATION FOCUS
Bank teller / cash handling Ballistic transaction window Ballistic standard + spall + transaction features
Government service counter Ballistic transaction window Threat level + visibility + pass-through
Embassy / critical facility Blast-resistant glazing Blast scenario + pressure criteria + frame/anchorage
Data center / control room Blast-resistant glazing Blast risk + continuity + optical performance
Oil & gas / industrial Blast-resistant glazing Hazard assessment + dynamic loading + durability
Mixed-threat facility Combined security glazing Ballistic + blast + fire/attack criteria as required
Important specification principle
Avoid selecting a product solely by thickness or appearance. Define the threat, required performance, opening size, framing,
anchorage, installation conditions and applicable testing criteria as one coordinated system.
THREAT PERFORMANCE INTEGRATION
What event or attack must the Which standard, pressure or How will the frame and glazing
assembly resist? ballistic level applies? connect to the building?
