🎯 Ideal Applications

The Avansa G1 Anti Bandit Door With View Panel is an indispensable security solution for a variety of business environments across Southern Africa, from bustling retail stores in Cape Town to remote banking branches in Zambia. It is ideal for cash offices, secure rooms, server rooms, pharmacies, police stations, data centres, and any area requiring a robust barrier against armed intrusion. Its G1 rating makes it perfect for locations where protection against handgun attacks is paramount, offering a vital security layer for personnel and valuable assets. This door is particularly effective for businesses experiencing frequent security threats or those needing to upgrade their existing entry points to meet stricter insurance requirements or enhanced security protocols.

💡 How It Works

The Avansa G1 Anti Bandit Door is designed as a primary or secondary security barrier. Upon installation into a reinforced door frame, its robust steel construction and multi-point locking system create a formidable deterrent. The integrated view panel, made of bullet-resistant glass, allows personnel inside to visually identify individuals before opening the door, adding a layer of controlled access and safety. In the event of an attack, the door's G1 ballistic rating ensures it can withstand handgun fire, providing critical time for emergency services to respond and protecting occupants. With a typical lead time of 7-10 days, your enhanced security can be operational swiftly.
