WARMINSTER, Pa. — Havis, Inc., is excited to announce a partnership with Hardwire to provide mission-critical ballistic armor for public safety vehicles.
“Protecting law enforcement officers is core to our team, and this partnership with Havis provides more officers access to our ballistic vehicle armor,” said George Tunis, Hardwire’s CEO. “We are excited to reach more police departments to ensure that they know armor is available, functional, and affordable.”
Hardwire ballistic panels are proven, high performance, lifesaving vehicle armor. The armor provides NIJ Level IIIA armor protection, and tests confirm they stop .357 SIG and .44 Magnum ammunition fired from longer barrel handguns as well as shotgun fire. This enhanced armor provides additional protection to public safety officers while in the field or on the scene.
“Exterior ballistic panels are already standard for both the New York and Philadelphia Police Department,” said Dan Heiland, Product Manager for Material Handing and Versatile solutions at Havis. “Our solutions support a range of vehicles already in the field, and they are simple to install, which means minimal downtime for police vehicles.”
Hardwire’s armor kits from Havis include an external door and window insert solution. The kits are lightweight and durable, easy to install or remove, and transferable to like models. From vehicle-specific consoles to unique device mounts to K9 transport systems and more, Havis offers a dash-to-trunk line of purpose-built and innovative solutions that provide extreme officer protection.
