scope:
This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of
resistance to dynamic loading in order to assess the burglar resistant properties
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.
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 buidling. 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 manufacturers 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.
The fixing method shall be considered as detailed in Annex A of EN 1627. This
test method does not evaluate the performance of the fixing to the building.
