Abstract
The invention is a piece of furniture that can be converted into a ballistic shield wherein a surface of the furniture is pivotally attached to a frame and rotates between a traditional working position and a shield position. The piece of furniture has a front modesty panel mounted between the front legs where an edge of the pivoting tabletop overlaps the upper edge of the modesty screen when rotated into the shield position. Additionally, the pivoting mechanism comprises a lift speed restricting mechanism that prevents the user from lifting the surface too quickly and prevents toppling along with a biasing mechanism to help hold the surface in the shield position. The invention also has a unique color coded system to easily indicate to a user that the piece of furniture can be converted into a ballistic shield.
