Secure by Design: Door Systems for the Most Demanding Environments

In today’s evolving threat landscape, high-security environments require door systems engineered for resilience, control, and absolute protection. TCH delivers specialty security door systems that combine advanced materials, compliance-grade testing, and custom engineering to secure people, property, and information.


Designed for high-risk and mission-critical facilities, our doors resist ballistic attacks, blasts, acoustic breaches, radiation exposure, and extreme weather—all while maintaining architectural integrity.

Specialty Doors for Critical Facilities


We offer a full line of specialty doors, including:

  • Bullet-resistant doors (UL 752 Levels 1–8)
  • SCIF doors (ICD/ICS 705-compliant)
  • Lead-lined doors for radiation protection
  • Acoustical doors with STC ratings up to 56
  • Blast-resistant doors (ASTM F2247, UFC 4-010-01)
  • Hurricane-resistant doors (FBC, TAS, ASTM E1886/E1996)

These products are ideal for government buildings, hospitals, corporate offices, Data centers and SCIF-secured IT environments, and other high-security spaces. Every door is built to meet strict safety and compliance standards.


A Security Partner You Can Rely On


Every security challenge is unique. TCH works closely with architects, general contractors, and end-users to design customized door solutions based on your facility’s risk profile, compliance requirements, and architectural vision.


Our solutions include:

  • Multi-threat doors (e.g., bullet + fire-rated, acoustic + blast-rated)
  • Pre-engineered frames and hardware reinforcement
  • Factory-installed seals, vision lites, and shielding components
  • Expert submittals with shop drawings, performance data, and test reports
  • Turnkey support from design through delivery

FAQs:


In what situations are bullet-resistant doors necessary?

Bullet-resistant doors are essential in environments where occupant protection from ballistic threats is critical. Facilities like government buildings, institutions, and security-sensitive areas rely on these doors to safeguard personnel and assets from potential armed threats.



What is a SCIF door, and what level of security does it provide?

A SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) door restricts access and electronic surveillance to protect classified data. Our SCIF doors meet ICD/ICS 705 Technical Specifications, including requirements for RF/EM shielding, sound attenuation (STC ≥ 50), and secure locking mechanisms. These are vital for military, intelligence, and defense projects.


Why would a facility need lead line doors, and what do they protect against?

Lead-lined doors shield occupants from ionizing radiation and are required in medical imaging, nuclear research, and radiological labs. TCH doors are built to match shielding specs (1/32” to 1/4" lead equivalency) and comply with NRC, ICRP, and AAPM standards for occupational safety.

How do acoustical doors help with noise control in a building?

Acoustical doors are designed with STC-rated cores, perimeter seals, and heavy-duty frames to limit noise intrusion. Typical applications include conference rooms, law offices, counseling centers, and healthcare exam rooms. We offer doors rated from STC 35 to STC 56, tested per ASTM E90 and E413 standards.

What features define blast-resistant doors, and where are they used?

Blast-resistant doors are engineered to withstand explosive forces, protecting occupants and infrastructure. Commonly installed in industrial sites, military facilities, and high-risk areas, blast-resistant doors combine reinforced materials and specialized design to absorb impact while maintaining structural integrity during extreme events.



What makes a door hurricane-resistant, and where are these typically required?

Hurricane-resistant doors are tested for wind pressure, flying debris, and water infiltration. Our systems meet Florida Building Code (FBC), TAS 201/202/203, and ASTM E1886/E1996 standards for impact and cyclic pressure resistance. These are critical for coastal buildings, storm shelters, and mission-critical facilities.

Can doors be designed to be both bullet and fire-resistant?

Yes. TCH manufactures multi-performance doors that meet combined standards such as UL 752 + UL 10C + NFPA 252, ensuring protection from both ballistic impact and fire exposure. These are ideal for emergency operations centers, high-security control rooms, and financial institutions.

What certifications or standards do SCIF and bullet-resistant doors meet?

Bullet-resistant doors: UL 752


• SCIF doors: ICD/ICS 705, STC, RF attenuation

• Blast-resistant doors: ASTM F2247, SDI 129, UFC 4-010-01

• Acoustic doors: ASTM E90, E413

• Radiation doors: ICRP, AAPM

TCH ensures all doors are lab-tested and labeled according to application-specific standards and verified by certified third parties.

Are there special installation requirements for hurricane-resistant doors?

Yes. To maintain compliance with impact and structural load testing, hurricane-rated doors must be installed using approved anchoring systems, reinforced frames, and weather stripping. TCH provides detailed installation instructions and anchorage diagrams for field teams.

What materials are used in acoustical doors to reduce sound transmission?

Acoustical doors feature high-density mineral cores, composite layered constructions, perimeter seals, and acoustic-rated vision panels. Combined, these components significantly reduce transmission loss and meet acoustic performance standards in environments where privacy, confidentiality, and quiet are mission-critical.
