The Vehicle Armoring Process

Every vehicle is stripped and its chassis analysed first. Armor steel and aramid panels are fitted into doors, roof, floor and pillars; bulletproof glass is seated in the original frames. The armored vehicle looks exactly as it arrived.

Bulletproof Glass and Armored Vehicle Equipment

Protection in an armored vehicle is not armor steel alone. With bulletproof glass, run-flat tyres, reinforced brakes and suspension the vehicle keeps its appearance and driving character after armoring, and leaves the scene under its own power.

What you need to know about vehicle armoring

Thanks to the new-generation armor steel and composite panels we use, the weight of the armored vehicle stays minimal and performance does not drop. The chassis, brake and suspension systems of the vehicles we armor are reinforced. The purpose of vehicle armoring is to protect the passengers and to let the vehicle leave the scene safely; for this reason the engine, transmission, cooling and brake components are armored as well.
