The first question a bank asks about bulletproof polycarbonate sheet UL 752 is usually the price, and the honest answer is that price follows the threat. A level 1 panel that stops a common handgun costs a fraction of a level 5 panel built for a rifle. Buying the level that matches your real risk is the cheapest protection of all.
Why the price tracks the level
UL 752 defines threat levels from handgun (levels 1-3) up to high-power rifle (levels 5-8). Higher levels need more thickness and more lamination plies, which drives material, machining and cost. A UL 752 sheet is specified against the actual threat at your site, not against a generic “bulletproof” label.
How to quote the right sheet
- State the threat level you must stop (handgun, rifle, forced entry).
- Give the panel size and opening you need to cover.
- Confirm whether you need test documentation for the tender.
- Decide if you want laminated multi-ply or a coated build.
- Confirm the frame can carry the panel weight.
