Gunnebo Safe Storage has strengthened its ModuleGuard range of modular vault doors and strong rooms with ballistic resistance, further enhancing security against physical attacks.
Developed through customer insights and research, ModuleGuard from the global security specialist features improved materials and manufacturing processes, reducing its carbon footprint for a more sustainable approach. Its certified bolt assembly allows for easy installation, even in areas with floor load limitations.
Alongside burglary resistance certified to EN 1143-1 by ECB•S and fire resistance ratings, the ModuleGuard Vault Doors (VD T2) and Strong Rooms (SR T2) are now tested and certified to EN 1522 FB2 by Banc National d’Épreuve de Saint-Étienne. This classification ensures protection against 9mm pistol attacks, providing an additional layer of defence for high-risk environments.
“Security challenges are constantly evolving, and so are our customers’ needs,” said Emmanuel Harir-Forouch, Global Business Development Director at Gunnebo Safe Storage.
“By introducing ballistic resistance to the ModuleGuard range, we are enhancing both asset protection and personal safety, delivering a more comprehensive and sustainable security solution for high-risk environments.”
Gunnebo’s ModuleGuard range features modular, lightweight designs that enable easier installation in locations with space or load constraints. Vault doors are available in T2 grades I, III, and IV, with high-security locking options including key, combination, and electronic locks. By introducing ballistic resistance, the ModuleGuard range now offers an extra layer of protection for environments where both assets and people are at risk.
Traditionally, vault doors and strong rooms have been designed to protect valuables, but growing security concerns mean there is an increasing need to safeguard individuals as well. Whether in public spaces, high-risk environments, or residential settings, protection against ballistic threats is becoming more relevant.
Emmanuel added: “Every security solution we develop is driven by real-world demands. By reinforcing the ModuleGuard range with ballistic resistance, we are ensuring our customers have the confidence that their people and assets are better protected. And from initial design and specification, we can incorporate such bespoke futureproof solutions to achieve targeted security requirements.”
