According to him, the installation of hermetic seals is the most important stage in the creation of the metro infrastructure. In addition to their main function - tunnel sealing - these constructions also perform a protective function. In case of man-made or natural disasters, thanks to hermetic seals, the subway can serve as a hiding place and salvation for people.

In the published photos, you can see the constructions of the cameras themselves, and the linings, thanks to which the hermetic seal can properly perform its functions. Hermetic doors are fitted to the frame in such a way as to tightly press their elements and seal the passage.
