Armored bulletproof windows and other structures with bulletproof glass provide reliable protection to thousands of employees working in Moscow institutions where money, jewelry, securities are stored, items of historical value, antiques and luxury goods are displayed - that is, in places for which there is a real or potential threat of armed attack. Bullet-resistant (armored) glass and frames will protect both from through penetration by bullets and from fragments when hit by bullets of various types of weapons - from a pistol to a sniper rifle with an armor-piercing incendiary cartridge. It is advisable to equip booths with such glazing in courtrooms, workplaces of personnel of banks, internal affairs bodies, currency exchange offices, gas stations, etc. Protective bulletproof booths are installed at the approaches and entrances to protected objects. Bullet-resistant glass is also installed on vehicles with armor protection. The protection class is selected in accordance with the requirements established in regulatory documents for a specific vehicle.
The production of bulletproof glass for bulletproof translucent structures for various purposes is one of the key activities of the FOTOTECH company. From us you can order the production of bulletproof structures according to individual requirements or buy bulletproof glass of standard sizes with standard protective characteristics.
Safety glass and double glazed windows
A double-glazed window is a structure made of several glasses.
To achieve a high degree of security, not ordinary glass, but special protective glass is installed in the double-glazed window. There are many types of protective glass: some are strengthened by gluing a special film, others by tempering. Regardless of the type of manufacture, the “protective glass” in a double-glazed window looks approximately the same. It is impossible to distinguish protective glass from ordinary glass, except in cases where it is marked - an indelible “label” indicating its degree of protection
.

Safety glass in plastic windows
In the production of safe, burglary-resistant plastic windows, impact-resistant glass and double-glazed windows are most often used. Glass with higher degrees of protection - bulletproof and armored - is classified as special-purpose glass and is used in conjunction with an all-steel frame.
Bulletproof glass
established when there is a possible threat of an armed attack on staff or visitors.
Armored and break-resistant glass
are installed at objects without centralized security that have material assets, for example, in banks, in museums. If there is security, impact-resistant glass of class A1-A3 is used.
Class 1: Safety glass during operation
Glass, when broken, does not form large fragments (tempered safety glass), or the fragments are held by a polymer film (laminated safety glass) is called safe to handle. These types of glass include triplex glass (laminated glass with a PVB film between two sheets of glass) and tempered glass.
In an effort to achieve effective protection without sharp (dangerous) fragments, please note that safety glass does not guarantee protection against breakage, it only provides a higher degree of glass resistance to physical impacts.
Tests
Such glass is tested for strength in one of the following ways: by blows with a bag of soft steel scrap (shot) weighing 45 kg (SM class); blows with a solid steel hollow pear weighing 5-10 kg and with a diameter of 240 mm (ST class).
Safety glass resistance classes

Shock-resistant glass
The use of polymer impact-resistant protective films is intended to increase the protection of the room from penetration through glazing and to protect people from fragments when glass breaks. Glazing with impact-resistant protective films is usually installed in window and display openings of commercial premises (shops, shopping and office centers, etc.).
Protection class A1
Used to protect against glass fragments and withstand repeated impacts from blunt objects. It is mainly used for glazing the facades of commercial and office buildings (shops, bars, offices, industrial premises) to protect people and property from accidental damage from glass fragments. Withstands destruction energy of 141 J; Impact resistance up to 78 kg.
Protection class A2
Protection class A2 approximately corresponds to a car windshield or triplex glass. A2 is recommended for use in glazing private houses and cottages to prevent break-ins and thefts. This protection class is also recommended for installation of shop windows and residential apartment windows located on the first floors of premises. Withstands destruction energy of 262 J; Impact resistance up to 135 kg.
Protection class A3
Installed on objects with expensive material assets, such as cash registers of commercial organizations, jewelry and weapons display cases, etc. It is also actively in demand for glazing private houses and cottages to prevent break-ins and thefts. Withstands destruction energy of 382 J; Impact resistance up to 182 kg.
For comparison, the number of blows with a fire ax required to punch a hole large enough in glass for an average-sized person to fit through:
Classification of impact-resistant glass
Protection class | Number of hits | Time spent |
A1 | from 25 to 35 beats | 1-3 minutes |
A2 | from 45 to 55 beats | 3-7 minutes |
A3 | 65 to 75 beats | 5-10 minutes |
Installation of bulletproof glass
Inside commercial premises and institutions, bullet-resistant glass is installed in combination with protective panels at a height of at least 2 m from the floor. The gap to the ceiling is covered with metal panels or grilles. External windows are protected by glass of the same class as indoors. A steel profile with reinforcing elements is used for the frame.
The thickness of bulletproof glass, dimensions, type of component sheets and intermediate layers, edge processing and end sealing are specified in the manufacturing contract. Light transmission characteristics, as well as fire and frost resistance, are agreed upon with the client.
Protection classes
Multilayer bulletproof glass provides comprehensive protection. It is safe for others even when dropped from a height of 190–2000 mm, withstands repeated impacts from falling objects, and is resistant to directed impact from a stone, axe, hammer, or crowbar.
Products are assigned basic and special classes according to the degree of protection against bullets:
- C1 (special) - resistance to penetration by an 18.5 mm cartridge with a lead core from a 12-gauge hunting rifle from a distance of up to 5 m.

Scope of application
Bulletproof glass is installed at all facilities where there is a threat of armed attack. The protection class is chosen taking into account the risks and crime situation. Bulletproof glass protects the following objects:
- banks, shopping centers and other places for issuing or storing money;
- jewelry store windows and currency exchange offices;
- workplaces for cashiers, police duty officers, and security guards.
Non-splintering multilayer structures are used in facilities and equipment in cases where there are people in close proximity. In other situations, tempered glass with a thickness of 10 mm or more can serve as protection against bullets.
We develop and manufacture protective double-glazed windows and partitions for residential, commercial, and government facilities. Two- and three-chamber bullet-resistant bags are produced in various combinations with ordinary, frost-resistant, sound-insulating glass to obtain improved performance characteristics.
For transport, curved (bent) glass with high optical properties is produced. Ideal for installation on armored vehicles. Provide safety and increased comfort of the interior space.
