Typically we will meet with the client and or security consultant to determine the specific threats and how to mitigate them. It is preferred to perform this consultation on-site as this will determine the best location for the proposed safe room in relationship to the rest of the residence and what is required to construct it. The design must also incorporate such practical matters as costs and available space and most important, the number of occupants and the time frame the safe room will be required to function for.
Gaffco specializes in the design / build of high end residential safe rooms, which offer blast-ballistic-forced entry and chemical gas protection for short and extended periods. Each safe room is custom designed to suit the particular clients requirements. We have completed installations in Africa, Europe, the Middle East as well as the Americas. We offer a full turnkey security solution, engineering, manufacturing, electronics integration, project planning and installation is handled in-house which ensures the level of discretion and professionalism our clientele expect.
The installation phase of the project plays a critical role in the process, particular attention is paid to project planning to ensure that a quality system is installed in a timely manner. State of the art composites that are light weight but also offer high protection levels are incorporated into our safe rooms, this leads to the elimination of weight issues which enables us to perform retrofits of existing locations in a short period of time. Our safe rooms are designed to meet or exceed UL, NIJ, DIN and CEN standards.
