The bullet-resistant sliding door developed by Metal Quartz offers high-level FB5 ballistic protection in accordance with European standard EN 1522-1523. This European standard certifies the door’s ability to withstand impacts from ammunition used in intermediate-caliber assault rifles. Officially tested by the ERM (Royal Military Academy), this bulletproof sliding door incorporates carefully selected materials and components to provide a reliable barrier against ballistic threats.
The entire structure, including the BR5 armored glazing, has been laboratory tested to ensure that the advertised performance is based on a comprehensive and consistent solution. The infill can also be made with FB5 sandwich panels for a solid version. The combination of armored glazing and a high-performance motorization system provides maximum security and ease of use.

Sensitive environments where bullet-resistant sliding doors are essential
The bullet-resistant sliding door is particularly recommended in areas where personal safety is a major concern. It is ideal for government buildings, embassies, military institutions, command posts, or headquarters of large companies that require strict access control while maintaining an elegant design. Thanks to its automated operation, it is also highly prized in high-traffic areas: secure main entrances, reception halls of sensitive buildings, and access to restricted or compartmentalized areas.
Comfortable to use and enhanced protection
Unlike a conventional reinforced swing door, the bullet-resistant sliding door offers superior ease of movement while maintaining the same level of security. It allows for large openings without physical effort on the part of users, while remaining discreet and stylish. The option of incorporating large reinforced glass panels ensures elegant architectural continuity, while maintaining FB5 and BR5 ballistic resistance.
