Abstract

Describes tests for classifying the burglary resistance to physical attack of building components, such as doors, windows, shutters, grilles; strongpoints and security enclosures, e.g. access covers. The burglary resistance of the product, any in-situ hardware, such as locks and hinges, and any associated form of locking, such as a padlock, are tested. Where the product comprises an opening element and a frame or retaining guides, the element and its frame or guides are tested as a combination, locked accordingly. Each opening configuration is subject of a separate evaluation. The standard also makes provision to test the adequacy of the installation method.
