There is no off-the-shelf blast door. Every MME doorset is engineered around the specific threat — the client’s peak pressure, impulse and duration — using single-degree-of-freedom dynamic analysis to UFC 3-340-02, ASCE and Biggs. A welded RHS/SHS steel matrix clad in solid steel plate skins is sized to the duty, from light ratings up to 7 bar. Designed and manufactured at our UK factory for clients around the world.
Blast forces leave no room for error. Every design we produce is independently checked, then proven by full-scale arena trials carried out to the ISO 16933 procedure. In one such trial a doorset withstood 100kg TNT-equivalent at 15m and remained intact, operable and fragment-free. Real-world evidence, not assumptions.
From a single personnel door to heavy automated sliding or hydraulic doorsets for large openings, we cover the full range — single and double leaf, manual or automated — alongside specialist variants such as ammunition-store and L151 magazine doors. Every door is designed, fabricated, finished, tested and installed by us: one accountable source, with hinges, shoot bolts and locking engineered to stay operable after the event.
Defending against a blast requires a feat of engineering. Many say they can do it. Few actually can. We make bold claims about our products and back them up with a testing regime unrivalled on the market. Our products work. And we prove it. Every product we make is unique. Designed around your needs and backed by independent design calculations. We don’t design to sell. We design to defend.
