His experience
Haines has been involved with ballistic, blast, storm impact and forced entry rated windows and doors for the last 23 years. He started his career in field engineering, project management, estimating, and safety in the road construction industry.
Haines was hired as a project manager and estimator for a security window and door manufacturer in 2000. Haines amassed knowledge with many security and architectural fenestration manufacturers in several roles including Government Sales Representative, Homeland Security Sales, Security Projects Manager, Mid-Atlantic Regional Manager and Southeast Regional Sales Manager.
He has been involved with numerous governmental agency projects along with hundreds of domestic and international military bases and government facilities around the world including Romania, Korea, Japan, and Africa.
What Haines says
“U.S. Bullet Proofing is a widely known company with an outstanding reputation in innovative product solutions,” says Haines. “I was drawn to USBP because as one of the very few certified US embassy suppliers, the products need to operate at a far higher performance level in order to meet the very stringent testing and security standards. There’s a vast opportunity for many projects requiring security solutions of this caliber, not just in the government sector, but in many other areas such as education, technology, and healthcare.”
