Today safety goes beyond just having power to
pass, brake, or survive a collision, and many customers recognize
a need for additional protection. We offer progressive levels
of armoring against firearms and explosives-from handgun to
assault rifle-and modifications are carried out in-house with
certified laboratory testing. Drive train, braking and suspension
systems are enhanced accordingly. Becker Automotive Design armoring
includes:
High-hardness armor steel plating designed to resist assault
rifles.
Kevlar-lined body panels that offer powerful handgun protection.
Ballistic steel door frames and edge plates that secure
vulnerable areas.
Ballistic glass with polycarbonate inner layers that replaces
all original glass.
Critical details like custom tool-grade steel hinges and
window regulators that allow fully operational windows that
are a Becker Automotive Design exclusive.
High Hardness Armor steel and comparable composites installed
in cargo doors, roof rails, pillar posts, quarter panels, floor
and firewall. Vulnerable areas between ballistic window glass
and body panels are reinforced with edge plates made of high
hardness armor steel.
