This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,

Introduction
The lifts concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are
indicated in the scope of this document.
This document is a Type C Standard as stated in EN 1070.
When the provisions of this C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this document take precedence over the other standards, for lifts that have been designed and
built according to the provisions of this document.
This document provides guidance to the building designer, customer etc. and requirements for design, where
it is considered additional security or other measures may be required in order to protect against the risk of
vandalism. The customer will need to consider the extent of additional protection required, as covered by the
enclosed proposals, which may be adopted according to the environment in which the lift installation is
situated and the type of vandalism that is likely to be experienced. Every lift is subject to some amount of
careless or rough use. Lifts built to EN 81-1 or EN 81-2 offer a reasonable degree of protection against this
and are referred to in this document as Category 0. This document addresses additional protective measures
against deliberate acts that may result in equipment damage or injury to persons.
With regard to potential hazards for vandalism the following factors are taken into consideration:
 degree of accessibility to the installation;
 the surrounding area;
 observation by others in the vicinity;
 extent of building security and surveillance of lift(s);
 period of access to the building, including the lift(s) (24 h);
 vulnerability of lift.
The clauses in this document apply to both Category 1 lifts and Category 2 lifts as defined in this document
(see Annex A ) unless otherwise stated in the text.
The following assumptions were made whilst writing this document:
 the lift is designed to meet the basic requirements detailed in EN 81-1 or EN 81-2, including
Amendment A2;
 the building and/or the lift structure are at least in accordance with the advice given in Annex A, which
form the basis of the negotiations outlined in 0.2.5 of EN 81-1:1998 or EN 81-2:1998;
 the lift, its well, landing and access areas, machinery spaces(s) and all associated equipment are properly
maintained in good, safe working order.
The forces exerted on the lift and its equipment will be as a result of manual effort or by item(s) such as those
defined in Annex E.
1 Scope
This document gives additional and deviating requirements to EN 81-1 and EN 81-2 as applicable in order to
ensure the safety of lift users and the availability of lifts, which may be used for vandal resistant purposes. In
all other respects such lifts are designed in accordance with EN 81–1, including Amendment A2 or EN 81-2,
including Amendment A2. This document deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events
relevant to lifts which can be affected by vandalism (as listed in Clause 4) when they are used under the
conditions as foreseen by the installer.
It does not cover building security or Category O lifts (see definition 3.2).
