Ballistically Protect What Matters Most With Bulletproof Wall Panels

Bulletproof wall panels are the most practical and effective ways to make walls resist bullets. They’re made from layered, reinforced structural polyester laminate and press-molded between steel plates at high pressure and temperature. Fiberglass wall panels are designed to progressively delaminate as a bullet penetrates, distorting and flattening the projectile and dissipating the energy. 

Bulletproof wall panels are available in UL Levels 1 through 8 and can be installed behind standard drywall or over existing structures. Custom finishes like veneers make the bulletproof panels blend in with the rest of the environment.

How Much Does Bulletproof Drywall Cost?

Like any other ballistic product, bulletproof drywall costs increase as the increased level of protection increases. If you’d like an accurate estimate for your bulletproof drywall project, we strongly encourage you to reach out to a member of our team for a free quote.

If you’re looking for general figures, you can expect 100 square feet of ballistic fiberglass panels to cost approximately:

  • Level 1 fiberglass: $1,200
  • Level 3 fiberglass: $1,600
  • Level 5 fiberglass: $5,000

To get a clearer picture of what level of protection is right for your project and what that project cost will be once construction is included, contact the ballistic experts at TSS for a quote. We’ll meet with you, learn more about your goals, and provide recommendations based on your threat level and budget.

How Do Bulletproof Wall Panels Compare to Other Building Materials?

If a wall is not designed to resist bullets, you can’t count on it to keep you safe in a dangerous situation. Standard building materials, like standard plasterboard drywall, are not impervious to bullets. Cinderblocks do resist bullets, but are not a practical material for retrofitting or aesthetics. Even wood on its own isn’t bulletproof. 

The solution is bulletproof drywall. For new builds, bulletproof panels can be installed before drywall is hung, offering invisible protection. For retrofit projects, bulletproof panels can be installed over walls and finished to resemble standard drywall as well as a variety of custom options. Our goal is always to provide a ballistic barrier solution that not only keeps you safe, but blends right into your environment. 

In these situations, fiberglass is ideal. Our skilled team can also use fiberglass to create saferooms, reception areas, and other custom bulletproof barriers.
