LEVEL B4 HANDGUN PROTECTION
If your security risk is from day to day crime encountered on our roads, like being followed home from the shops and being hijacked and robbed, then level B4 protection is a good choice.
Most violent crimes like hijacking are committed with handguns, as they are easy for the perpetrators to conceal. Our B4 conversions are exceptionally light, with most average SUV”s adding around 180kgs of weight.
This has very little effect on the driving characteristics of the vehicle. You can choose a base level and then add a number of extras as required.
A B4 conversion is suited to medium sized vehicles like VW Golf’s all the way through to large SUV’s like the Range Rover Long Wheel Base.
LEVEL B6 RIFLE PROTECTION
There are levels of risk that necessitate a higher level of protection. Our level B6 conversions are ideally suited for threats from the calibers fired from assault rifles commonly found around the world. A B6 build is a complex conversion and takes around 55 days to complete.
Our use of lightweight synthetic armour, in combination with the most advanced ballistic steel results in an added weight around a third that of our competitors. This means longer service intervals than are normally needed for an armoured vehicle of this ballistic level, longer vehicle life, and a superior driving experience. Our attention to cosmetic detail is another defining aspect of our conversions.
Given the added weight and increase in asset value of a B6 conversion, it is best suited to large SUV’s and sedans. From a pure security aspect our recommendation is to choose a SUV over a sedan. This is due to the higher seating position of the occupants, which results in a tactical advantage (In attacking an SUV, assailants are shooting horizontally or higher, whereas in a sedan they are looking down at you with the resultant increase in vulnerability).
A large SUV is also able to smash through and past blocking vehicles and obstacles, as well as drive over pavements in order to evade the attack. A sedan can be severely compromised in this situation.
