EntryDefender® Door | Defender Series

The EntryDefender Door meets the U.S. Department of State Standard for forced entry SD-STD-01.01, Revision G (Amended) for a 5, 15 and 60 minute attack.

The EntryDefender Door is ASTM F3038 Compliant.

The government standard for forced entry (CODE) was designed for attacks that escalate – not planned attacks.  That’s why the testing required for this code requires six men between the ages of 18 and 24 that weigh more than 160 but less than 250 pounds to try and pass a rigid rectangular shape measuring 12” x 12” x 8” or a rigid 12” x 12” cylinder through the door using hand tools such as battering rams, axes, crowbars, and the like.

The maximum size available will vary slightly based on the wall construction. 
If the wall construction is steel, the maximum size is 13’ 11 1/4" wide by 16’ high. 
If the wall construction is concrete, the maximum size is 13' 8 3/4" wide by 16' high. 

The EntryDefender Door is designed to operate to 20,000 cycles (lifetime) as standard, but can also be customized to handle additional cycles if desired.

The standard materials and finishes for EntryDefender are:

Curtain – 12 gauge 4” flat steel slat with SpectraShield® powder coat in gray.

Guides – Steel with powder coating to match the curtain.

The EntryDefender Door features the SG motor operator as standard. It is UL-325 listed with a chain and sprocket drive. It also includes an interlock to prevent operation while locks are engaged.

The EntryDefender door is designed for a static wind load of up to 125 psf.

"We are very pleased with the performance of the Cornell doors. Throughout the area, doors are blown out everywhere and the building we just moved from was destroyed. Here, our $2.3 million of inventory was saved. Being satisfied with the Cornelldoors is an understatement!"

ROGER WEIR, OPERATIONS MANAGER AT LEWIS BEAR COMPANY

"CornellCookson had installed a rolling door for us in our old building. We used it all the time and it’s held up really well over the years. Calling them in again made perfect sense. We are thrilled with how this door looks. The level of detail that’s been captured so clearly on this large door is incredible. It’s exceeded our expectations by far and will definitely do its job as a focal point in our new building."

MARK WORMAN, OWNER OF GRAVEYARD CARZ

"The existing grilles we had installed prior could not stand up to the cycle usage, and they needed a lot of maintenance. Cornell's Extreme Performance 324 grille is the right product, far superior to the other grilles we had in this opening before. We are really happy with the performance and will definitely purchase this product going forward, when the next opportunity arises."

MARK ARGABRIGHT, FACILITY MANAGER AT YOHN PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

"Not only was functionality a major concern, but we also needed a custom closure solution that worked with the overall exterior aesthetic of the building which is rooted in neighborhood context. We collaborated with CornellCookson to develop a solution that is both functional and architecturally sensitive."

EUGENE FLOTTERON, CETRARUDDY ARCHITECTURE

"The SteelWeave Metal Mesh Grille was the perfect solution to meet all of our needs. It complimented the design of the bar and lobby while adding some elegance. We could not be happier with the look and function of our CornellCookson SteelWeave Metal Mesh Grille and custom sliding panel."
