scope:

This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of
resistance to manual burglary attempts in order to assess the burglar resistant
characteristics of pedestrian door assemblies, door sets, windows, facades,
grilles and shutters. It is applicable to the following means of opening: Turning,
tilting, folding, turn-tilting, top or bottom hung, sliding (horizontally and vertically)
and rolling as well as fixed constructions.
This European Standard does not directly cover the resistance of locks and
cylinders to attack with picking tools. It also does not cover the attack of
electric, electronic and electromagnetic operated burglar resistant construction
products using attack methods that might defeat these characteristics.
It is acknowledged that there are two aspects to the burglar resistance
performance of construction products, their normal resistance to forced
operation and their ability to remain fixed to the building. Due to the limitation of
reproducing the fixing methods and building construction in a laboratory
environment this aspect is not fully covered by the standard. This is particularly
true with products built into a building. The performance of the fixed part of the
product is evaluated using a standard sub frame. It is the manufacturer´s
responsibility to ensure that guidance on the fixing of the product is contained in
the mounting instructions and that this guidance is suitable for the burglar
resistance class claimed for the product. As with the other referenced standards
this specification uses a standard sub frame and the product is mounted
according to the manufacturers instructions. An example for the contents of the manufacturer´s installation instructions is given in Annex A of EN 1627. This
test method does not evaluate the performance of the fixing to the building.
