Blast doors are critical in preventing blast pressure causing destruction to people, property, and assets. Blast resistant doors are incredibly effective in minimising the effects from accidental or intentional explosives or blast attacks, because they seal off most rooms and areas.
Pensher Skytech’s blast doors are resistant to an incredibly high standard and have been installed in some extremely high profile areas including Heathrow Airport, military sites, museums, government buildings, public areas and internationally. The blast proof doors are designed to specific project requirements by the Pensher Skytech team.
Pensher Skytech’s blast doors are designed to meet the most rigorous demands and protect against high level explosions. Blast justification is determined by Pensher Skytech’s RSES (Register of Security Engineers and Specialists) engineers and detailed reports are produced with assistance from the latest blast software.
The blast doors are certified to several high-specification international blast standards including ISO 16933. ACSE. GSA. UFC 3-340-02. DMG-02. CPNI, making them suitable for high risk facilities.
Pensher Skytech’s blast-resistant doors are manufactured in-house from steel, ensuring it has good tensile strength and high ductility. This makes it easy to weld, so that strong constructions are formed, which are necessary for doors that require significant durability.
The doors have innate blast-resistant qualities, and are designed with a thermal break, making them more economically efficient, which is a key requirement in modern building design.
Not only are Pensher Skytech’s blast proof doors highly rated in terms of blast resistance, but they can also encompass several other performance requirements such as fire resistance (up to 2 hours for integrity and insulation).
It can also have a ballistic resistance up to EN 1063 and EN 1522, FB7/BR7, NIJ level IV, UL752 5-8. Acoustic performance can also be included up to STC 50. This makes it more suitable for a range of environments, and ensures it can provide extremely high levels of resistance.
Blast doors are an excellent protection for any environment at the potential risk of forced or natural blast attacks. Typical industries that blast doors are used for are:
