How it works
Bullet-resistant protection that deploys and retracts similar to conventional window shades
- Shades and door shields deploy from above the window/door frame either by manual hand crank or a motorized system.
- The motor can be activated with a standard wall switch, wireless remote control, or by connecting to an existing alarm system.
- The all-fabric shielding benefits from the patented BBP "energy dissipation solution" that allows the shield to act as though it is catching the bullet rather than simply resisting its impact only with brute strength.
This significantly reduces the stress on the entire system, including the mountings to the walls and framing. - For added stability on smaller windows/doors, outdoor use, and recommended applications, two types of retention devices can secure the bottom of the fabric:
- Locking Hem Bar: When lowered into position, the hem bar locks into mounts that sit below the window, holding the bottom of the shade securely into place as the bullets impact.
- Cable Guide: As the shield lowers into positions, the hem bar rides along cables attached to the side of the door/window, providing added resistance to movement as bullets impact.
Is BBP's product bulletproof?
- Many people use the term “bulletproof” when speaking about safety solutions; however, this term can be misleading, as to some people, it implies insurmountable protection.
- "Bullet-resistant" conveys trust without exaggeration. Similar to how the electronics industry embraced the term “water-resistant” instead of "waterproof" to convey that the products can withstand water to a certain extent but are not perfectly impervious under all conditions.
- No physical barrier can guarantee ABSOLUTE protection against every type of bullet or sustained attack. At Ballistic Barrier Products, we intentionally use the term “bullet-resistant” because it represents the honest, tested performance of our products, and honesty is foundational to our brand authority.

The price I paid for that peace of mind was definitely worth it.
“After a stray bullet came through my window one night, I started looking for something to protect me and my guests - just in case it happens again. That is when I found Ballistic Barriers. Since they installed their product a few short months ago, there have been more incidents in my neighborhood and some of my neighbors have also had stray bullets enter their homes. Thanks to Ballistic Barriers, now I feel safer in my own house, and I am no longer afraid to have guests over. The price I paid for that peace of mind was definitely worth it.”
