Ballistic Shielding

The issue of ballistic shielding within the context of mobile/modular vehicle barriers has recently become somewhat of a hot button issue. As a security professional you should understand the reasoning and logic behind the Rologard k2600 series vehicle barrier ballistic shield offering/concept.

There are two schools of thought regarding this feature. Clearly there are an unending number of scenarios where there is an application for the shielding and equally a number of scenarios where they may not be appropriate. It is up to the security professional, on-site, to make a determination as to whether they are used or not. One theory is that the ballistic shield can and will act as protective cover for citizens in the event of perpetrator/gunman targeting. This scenario may in fact denote a practical use of the shield. ON THE OTHER HAND there is a developing school of thought that the perpetrator/gunman him/herself will use the shield for their own protection/cover

The security professional has to determine what the layout situation is; is it simply physical, impact preparedness; is it highly centric with large numbers of transient pedestrian clusters, etc. And that is why Rologard has designed their ballistic shield to be "pin on, pin off". Our design gives security personnel the option of utilizing or not utilizing ballistic shielding. Rologard is the only manufacturing in the industry that gives you this kind of flexibility.
