Security Fit-Out Solutions for Defence, Military and Government

Security starts with construction

The security policy landscape is changing – and with it, the requirements for structural security. Public sector clients, military facilities, and operators of critical infrastructure face the challenge of retrofitting existing buildings and planning new construction with security in mind from the outset. Lindner brings the experience, development expertise, and manufacturing depth needed to reliably meet these demands.

As an experienced interior fit-out partner, Lindner Group supports the German Armed Forces and military facilities, public authorities, critical infrastructure operators and the defence industry in the fit-out of security-sensitive buildings. With our tested and certified security products, we provide comprehensive support throughout the project – from planning and development through to installation, with a single point of contact. We can also develop bespoke solutions tailored to the specific requirements of your project.

Our services at a glance

From protection against unauthorized access to defending against complex threat scenarios: our defence services cover the entire spectrum of structural security requirements – up to the highest resistance classes. 

Explosion protection / blast resistance

Explosive attacks and uncontrolled explosions are among the most serious threat scenarios for security-critical buildings. The aim of our fit-out solutions is to effectively reduce the impact of a blast wave on the building structure, facade and interior – using systems that minimise the formation of glass splinters and flying debris while protecting load-bearing and room-enclosing elements. Classification is based on recognised ER classes.

Eavesdropping protection

Protecting sensitive information is just as important in public authorities, military facilities and security-critical corporate environments as the physical protection of people and buildings. Together with specialised partners, we implement solutions for secure rooms that provide protection against eavesdropping – from meeting rooms and command centres to areas subject to particularly stringent confidentiality requirements. We combine structural measures for acoustic and electromagnetic shielding with the building's overall security concept.

Burglary and attack resistance

Effective protection against forced entry and targeted attacks is becoming increasingly important in defence and security environments. Our systems are tested in accordance with DIN EN 1627 and cover resistance classes RC1 to RC6 – from basic levering tools to professionally used power tools. We do not limit our approach to individual building components: doors, windows, facade and wall systems are integrated holistically into a security concept that also takes adjacent joints and connections into account.

Bullet resistance

As the security environment becomes increasingly complex, the need for reliable protection against firearm threats is also growing. Our ballistic-resistant systems are tested in accordance with DIN EN 1522/1523 and VPAM and provide reliable protection up to class FB7. In addition to doors and walls, our solutions include bullet-resistant glazing, classified according to calibre, type of ammunition and firing distance. The key requirement is clear: no projectile may penetrate the protected area – frames and joints are protected just as consistently as the building component itself.

Drone defence

The increasing use of drones creates new threat scenarios for security-critical sites, from unauthorised surveillance to eavesdropping. Lindner Group provides structural solutions to protect against surveillance and eavesdropping by drones, which can be integrated into existing security concepts. The focus is on facade and building-envelope solutions that make unauthorised approaches more difficult and help reduce the impact of an incident on the building structure and people inside.

Our strengths in security fit-out

1. Experience that counts

For decades, we have delivered demanding fit-out projects for security-critical buildings – from classic office buildings to facilities with the highest protection requirements. This experience is applied directly to every defence project. 

 

2. Tailored development

No two threat scenarios are alike. Our in-house development department adapts existing systems to individual requirements or develops new solutions – quickly, flexibly, and in close coordination with you. 

 

3. Our own installation personnel

Security fit-out is only as good as its execution. With our own trained installation personnel, we ensure that every solution is installed professionally, in compliance with standards, and on schedule – without any loss of quality due to external subcontractors. 

 

4. Everything from a single source

Façade, ceiling, floor, wall, door, interior glazing, drywall construction: Lindner delivers the complete fit-out of security-relevant buildings as a single package – one point of contact, one responsible party, one quality standard. 

Complete fit-out from a single source

From the security façade to the final touches of interior fit-out – our product portfolio covers all relevant trades for security-critical buildings: 

  • Security facades – blast-, ballistic- and forced-entry-resistant building envelopes
  • Ceiling systems – for enhanced security and access requirements as well as blast protection
  • Floor systems – robust, standards-compliant solutions for security-critical areas, blast protection, and enhanced security and access requirements
  • Wall systems – sound-insulated, forced-entry-, ballistic- and blast-resistant
  • Internal glazing – bullet- and forced-entry-resistant, for security zones and controlled-access areas
  • Security doors – forced-entry-, ballistic- and blast-resistant, optionally combined with access control systems
  • Drywall systems – as a basis for combined protective functions in interior fit-out and blast protection

From threat analysis to the finished solution

Security fit-out is not an off-the-shelf product but the result of a structured process. We support every project through all phases:


Requirements Analysis

Together with you and the specialist planners involved, we define the project-specific requirements and provide advice on suitable products and system solutions based on the specified protection requirements.

 

Development & Engineering

Our development department designs the appropriate system solution – based on existing certified products or as an individual new development for special requirements. 

 

Testing & certification

Before deployment, systems are tested and certified by independent testing laboratories and institutes in accordance with the relevant standards – the basis for verifiable protective performance in a real-world scenario. 

 

Manufacturing

Production takes place with a high level of in-house manufacturing depth and rigorous quality control at Lindner Group's own facilities.

 

Installation

Our own trained installation personnel carry out professional on-site installation – even under heightened security and access restrictions at military or governmental construction sites. 

 

Service & maintenance

Even after completion, we remain available as a point of contact – for maintenance, retrofitting, or adaptation to changing threat situations. 

Who we build for

Our customers have a special responsibility – for people, sensitive information and the operation of critical systems. This responsibility does not end with a single building component; it extends across the entire building. We support a wide range of clients with the planning and technical advice for security-sensitive construction projects, working together with them to develop suitable solutions:

  • Armed forces & military facilities – barracks, properties, security areas
  • Public security-relevant buildings – courthouses, embassies, police stations, government authorities
  • Private security-relevant buildings – banks, corporate headquarters, research facilities, residences
  • Critical infrastructure – data centers, energy and utility facilities 
    Defence industry & chemical sector – production and facility security 

Why Lindner is the right partner

Security-relevant projects require more than certified products. They require a partner who takes responsibility for the entire construction process, who delivers even in the case of short-notice changes, and who understands that discretion in this environment is not an additional service but a fundamental requirement. That is exactly what Lindner offers: years of experience in security-critical construction, in-house development and manufacturing expertise, and its own installation personnel who ensure the professional implementation of every solution.

Confidentiality that protects

In the field of security-critical construction projects, we apply an especially high standard of protection – one that extends beyond the construction phase itself. Out of consideration for the security of our clients and their properties, we deliberately do not publish project details here. This discretion is part of our security commitment. You can, however, gain an impression of Lindner Group's fit-out quality elsewhere: in our general references, we show the standards, precision and experience with which we realise projects worldwide – the foundation of the trust we earn every day, including in sensitive areas.
