Bullet Proof Security Systems, News, Information | Demand TSS

A Marathon Oil dealer in an Indianapolis neighborhood that experienced a string of summer robberies knew it was time to play defense when the station was held up twice. While there were no injuries, the cash drawer was cleaned out both times. He called his corporate office and they called TSS. Company representatives took initial measurements at the dealer, then submitted an installation design to Marathon, who approved the design and issued a purchase order. TSS had all materials — new counter top, two horizontal acrylic sliders, ballistic entry door, under-counter ballistic fiberglass on-site in less than two weeks. Installation began at 8 PM and was completed at 2:30 AM, significantly reducing downtime for the dealer.

While many convenience stores may already have horizontal or vertical sliders installed in their facilities providing varying levels of security at different times of day, Total Security Solutions launched a new product – the Electric Vertical Slider. Demonstrating our commitment to innovation, Total Security Solutions developed the Electric Vertical Slider to provide users ease of opening and closing a transaction window through the use of an electric motor.

In addition, electronic locks are used to ensure maximum security. Photo electric eyes, similar to the operation of a garage door, are installed to ensure safe operation. If an object intersects the laser beam of the photo electric eyes, the slider will stop operation immediately.

The Electric Vertical Slider is available in UL Level 1-3 protection and is ideal for convenience stores, fast food outlets, governmental offices, and other high profile/high traffic facilities.
