Transparent Areas   Blast Resistance
Multiple layers of float glass, PVB and Polycarbonate are laminated to form transparent armor capable of defeating level B6 and below. Glasses are finished up with a splinter protection shield (PC).   Floor areas are a dual skin construction armored with 3.0 mm of stainless ballistic steel. This is capable of defeating 2 German Ordnance DM51 hand grenades detonated simultaneously in an area of one square meter
     
Armor Overlaps   Warranty
Where transparent armor and opaque armor meet additional armor is required to prevent a ballistic orifice. For this reason overlapping armor is applied to cover the transitions between transparent and opaque armor .
 
Due to the extensive armoring the OEM Warrantee no longer applies to the vehicle. Supplier warranty is against faulty workmanship and materials is 1 year unlimited miles and in strict accordance with the terms & conditions of the manufacturer .
     
Product Liability   Test Report and Certifications
Supplier does not warrant against loss of life in any way.   Test reports by recognized testing facilities can be provided on request for all the materials employed including glass, steel, ceramics and / or aramid fiber.
Mechanical Upgrades    
The supplier certifies that the armor retro fitted commercial vehicle has been structurally modified to compensate for the additional weight to ensure that the car is drivable and roadworthy. Specific attention is given to the suspension, brakes and hinges. Due to increased load on the vehicle, parts will wear sooner which can be prevented by regular and appropriate maintenance.  

Window functionality
Driver side window is operable by 4 inches to allow document and money pass-through.

Services
An up-armored vehicle should be serviced at 5000 mile intervals. Due to additional weight suspension, brakes and tires will need replacement more often than a regular vehicle

Armor suppliers do not keep stock of transparent armor, but replacement glass can be made to order on relatively short notice.
