A key aspect of every security strategy is the ability to delay an intruder from accessing his target before a response can be successfully deployed. To impede an intruder, a number of delay barriers and defensive position can be installed.

Bullet resistive defensive positions are designed to protect responding personnel from hostile gunfire. Constructed of steel or fiberglass armor plate these barriers are custom configurable and include gunports with sliding or hinged covers.

For extended delay requirements on door openings, NSSC offers reinforced concrete filled penetration resistive door and frame units. These units are designed to resist both hand tool penetration techniques as well as explosive charges. Accepted life safety hardware configurations are used for emergency egress. Reinforced concrete vestibules can be supplied to ease installation concerns.

Shorter delay requirements for door openings can be achieved through the use of delay barriers constructed of expanded metal and reinforced hardware. Not only will seconds be added to the intruder’s timeline, but he will also be exposed to defensive position fire while attempting to penetrate the barrier. Delay barriers are available in custom configurations to meet any facility’s requirements.
