This video tests the ballistic resistance of a fire-rated door, commonly found in hospitals and schools, against various handgun and rifle calibers. The door demonstrated surprising effectiveness, stopping .22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, 12-gauge birdshot and buckshot, and .45 ACP with only minor deformation or penetration. However, it failed to stop the 5.7x28mm round and rifle rounds like those from an AK-47, indicating it offers significant protection against most handgun threats but is not a substitute for dedicated ballistic protection.
