prEN 1630
(Main)This document specifies a test method for the determination of resistance to manual burglary attempts in order to assess the burglar resistant characteristics of pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain walling, 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), pivoted (horizontally and vertically) and rolling as well as fixed constructions.
This document 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.
The manufacturer's installation instructions will give guidance on the fixing of the product.
An example for the contents of the manufacturer’s installation instructions is given in Annex A of prEN 1627:2019.
This document does not apply to doors, gates and barriers, intended for installation in areas in the reach of persons, and for which the main intended uses are giving safe access for goods and vehicles accompanied or driven by persons in industrial, commercial or residential premises, as covered by EN 13241.
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. This test method does not evaluate the performance of the fixing to the building.
Türen, Fenster, Vorhangfassaden, Gitterelemente und Abschlüsse - Einbruchhemmung - Prüfverfahren für die Ermittlung der Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen manuelle Einbruchversuche
Dieses Dokument legt ein Prüfverfahren zur Ermittlung der Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen manuelle Einbruchversuche fest, um die einbruchhemmenden Eigenschaften von Türelementen, Fenstern, Vorhang-fassaden, Gitterelementen und Abschlüssen zu bewerten. Es gilt für die folgenden Öffnungsarten: Drehen, Kippen, Falten, Drehkippen, Schwingen, Schieben (horizontal und vertikal), Schwenken (horizontal und vertikal) und Rollen sowie für nicht öffenbare Konstruktionen.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht direkt die Widerstandsfähigkeit von Schlössern und Schließzylindern gegen Angriffe mit Sperrwerkzeugen (Picking). Ebenfalls nicht behandelt wird der Angriff auf elektrisch, elektronisch und elektromagnetisch betätigte einbruchhemmende Bauprodukte mit Hilfe von Angriffs-methoden, die diese Eigenschaften ausschalten könnten.
Leitlinien zur Befestigung des Produkts sind der Einbauanweisung des Herstellers zu entnehmen.
Ein Beispiel für den Inhalt der Montageanweisungen des Herstellers ist in prEN 1627:2019, Anhang A, beschrieben.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Türen, Tore und Schranken, die für den Einbau in Zugangsbereichen von Personen vorgesehen sind und deren hauptsächlich vorgesehene Verwendung darin besteht, eine sichere Zufahrt für Waren und Fahrzeuge, begleitet oder geführt (gesteuert) von Personen, in industriellen, gewerblichen oder Wohnbereichen zu ermöglichen, was in EN 13241 behandelt wird.
Es gibt bekanntermaßen zwei Aspekte der einbruchhemmenden Leistungsfähigkeit von Bauprodukten, ihr üblicher Widerstand gegen gewaltsame Öffnung und ihre Fähigkeit, im Gebäude fest verankert zu bleiben. Das vorliegende Prüfverfahren bewertet nicht die Ausführung der Befestigung am Gebäude.
Blocs-portes pour piétons, fenêtres, façades rideaux, grilles et fermetures - Résistance à l'effraction - Méthode d'essai pour la détermination de la résistance aux tentatives manuelles d'effraction
Le présent document définit la méthode d’essai visant à déterminer la résistance aux tentatives d’effraction manuelle dans le but d’évaluer les caractéristiques de résistance à l’effraction des blocs portes pour piétons, fenêtres, façades rideaux, grilles et fermetures. Il s’applique aux constructions fixes et aux systèmes ouvrants suivants : battant, oscillant, pliant, oscillo battant, à gonds haut ou bas, coulissant (horizontalement et verticalement), pivotant (horizontalement et verticalement) et à enroulement.
Le présent document ne traite pas directement de la résistance aux ouvertures fines des serrures et des cylindres. Il ne couvre pas non plus l’attaque des produits de construction résistants à l’effraction actionnés de façon électrique, électronique et électromagnétique, à l’aide de méthodes susceptibles de neutraliser ces caractéristiques.
Les instructions de pose du fabricant donnent des recommandations relatives à la fixation du produit.
Un exemple du contenu des instructions de pose du fabricant est donné à l’Annexe A du prEN 1627:2019.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux portes, portails et barrières, destinés à être installés dans des zones accessibles aux personnes et dont l’utilisation principale prévue est de permettre l’accès sécurisé de marchandises et de véhicules accompagnés ou conduits par des personnes, dans des locaux industriels et commerciaux ou des garages dans les zones d’habitation, tel que traité par l’EN 13241.
Il est reconnu que les performances de résistance à l’effraction des produits de construction se caractérisent par deux aspects : leur résistance normale à une ouverture en force et leur capacité à rester fixé au bâtiment. Cette méthode d’essai n’évalue pas les performances de la fixation à la structure du bâtiment.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1630:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors,
windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.This document supersedes EN 1630:2011+A1:2015.
Significant changes in this revision are:
a) updated editions of Normative references;
b) Annex E added.
This document is one of a series of standards for burglar resistant pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain
walling, grilles and shutters. The other standards in the series are:— prEN 1627:2019, Pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain walling, grilles and shutters — Burglar
resistance — Requirements and classification;— prEN 1628:2019, Pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain walling, grilles and shutters — Burglar
resistance — Test method for the determination of resistance under static loading;
— prEN 1629:2019, Pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain walling, grilles and shutters — Burglar
resistance — Test method for the determination of resistance under dynamic loading.
The manual test described in this standard covers the areas of vulnerability not suitably assessed by the
static loading and dynamic loading tests described in prEN 1628:2019 and prEN 1629:2019. Certain
basic security requirements for the locks, furniture and cylinders are covered by the requirements
detailed in Table 10 of prEN 1627:2019. These security characteristics are not re-assessed in this test
standard and the attack methods and test times have been limited to reflect this.
The use of the tools detailed in the various tools sets is described in this standard. This has the advantage
of improving the reproducibility of the test.---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------
