Bulletproof Panels for Security Checkpoints – Certified Ballistic Protection for Guard Posts and Control Stations

In high-risk locations like border crossings, embassy gates, airport security zones, and government buildings, bulletproof panels play a critical role in protecting guards, personnel, and visitors from armed threats.

At Hindustan Steel Corporation, we supply ballistic-rated steel panels specially designed for security checkpoints, control rooms, and access control areas.

Our panels offer multi-hit ballistic resistance, custom sizing, and easy fabrication support, making them ideal for OEMs, contractors, and government security agencies.

What Are Bulletproof Panels for Security Checkpoints?

Bulletproof panels are pre-fabricated, high-hardness steel sheets engineered to stop bullets from handguns, rifles, and armor-piercing rounds, depending on the required threat level.

Key Features of Our Security Checkpoint Bulletproof Panels:

  • NIJ Level III and IV rated ballistic protection
  • Conforms to EN 1522 FB4 / FB6 / FB7 levels, as required
  • Available in flat or contoured formats
  • Supports multi-hit performance
  • Can be integrated with concrete walls, modular booths, or steel frame structures
  • Customizable panel thickness, dimensions, and mounting hole patterns

If you are searching for “bulletproof steel panels for security cabins in India” or “NIJ Level IV wall panels for checkpoints,” we are your trusted source.

Applications Across Security Installations

Where are these bulletproof panels used?

Common applications include:

  • Border Security Posts
  • Police Checkpoints and Barricades
  • Embassy and Consulate Access Gates
  • Toll Plazas in High-Threat Regions

Technical Standards & Equivalent Grades

Our bulletproof steel panels for security checkpoints meet key international ballistic protection standards widely used in security infrastructure projects.

Standard Description
NIJ 0101.06 / 0101.07 Level III / IV U.S. ballistic standard for rifle and armor-piercing threats
EN 1522 FB4 / FB6 / FB7 European ballistic resistance standards for building and vehicle protection
MIL-DTL-46100 / MIL-DTL-12560 U.S. military-grade high hardness armor plates (used in many checkpoint installations)
STANAG 4569 Level 2 / 3 NATO vehicle ballistic levels (used for perimeter security structures in some projects)

Custom material cross-referencing is available if your project specifies proprietary or OEM armor grades

Thickness Range & Plate Sizes

We offer custom-sized bulletproof steel panels for easy integration into security booths, walls, or modular checkpoint designs.

Parameter Range
Thickness 6 mm to 20 mm (based on threat level)
Width Up to 2500 mm
Length Up to 12000 mm
Custom Shapes Yes (including curved or modular formats)
Drilling & Mounting Holes Available as per client drawings

Panel kits for fast on-site installation are also available for large security projects.

Heat Treatment & Toughness

All supplied security checkpoint panels are delivered in a precisely controlled quenched and tempered condition, ensuring:

  1. High surface hardness for ballistic resistance
  2. Good ductility to prevent cracking on impact
  3. Multi-hit performance for sustained protection
  4. Consistent microstructure for predictable ballistic performance

For projects needing sub-zero impact toughness, we offer low-temperature tested grades.

Machining & Fabrication Advice

Due to their high hardness, bulletproof steel panels require specialized fabrication techniques.

Recommended Fabrication Tips:

Cutting:

  • Best done with waterjet, plasma, or laser cutting
  • Maintain edge integrity to avoid weak zones

Drilling:

  • Use carbide drills with coolant flooding
  • Follow low RPM and high feed rate for precision drilling

Welding:

  • Preheating required for thicknesses above 8 mm
  • Use low hydrogen electrodes (E7018 / E10018)
  • Post-weld stress relieving recommended for thicker panels

Bending/Forming:

  • Limited for thicker armor panels
  • For thinner plates (6–8 mm), cold forming with large radius bends is possible

For fast projects, we recommend ordering pre-cut, pre-drilled panels ready for on-site assembly.
