Pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain walling, grilles and shutters - Burglar resistance - Test method for the determination of resistance to manual burglary attempts
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 opening functions: turning, tilting, folding, turn-tilting, top or bottom hung, sliding (horizontally and vertically), pivoted (horizontally and vertically), projecting, and rolling as well as non-openable 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 surreptitious 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. This test method does not evaluate the performance of the fixing to the building.
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 EN 1627:2021, Annex A.
This document does not apply to walls and roofs, as well as for 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 13241:2003+A2:2016.
NOTE It is important that construction products that can be reached or driven through by vehicles are protected by appropriate measures such as barriers, extensible ramps, etc.
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, Vorhangfassaden, Gitterelementen und Abschlüssen zu bewerten. Es gilt für die folgenden Öffnungsfunktionen: Drehen, Kippen, Falten, Drehkippen, Schwingen, Schieben (horizontal und vertikal), Schwenken (horizontal und vertikal), Überstand 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 vorgetäuschten Angriffsmethoden, die diese Eigenschaften ausschalten könnten.
Es werden zwei Aspekte der einbruchhemmenden Leistungsfähigkeit von Bauprodukten zugrunde gelegt, ihr üblicher Widerstand gegen gewaltsamen Durchtritt und ihre Fähigkeit, im Gebäude fest verankert zu bleiben. Das vorliegende Prüfverfahren bewertet nicht die Ausführung der Befestigung am Gebäude.
Leitlinien zur Befestigung des Produkts sind der Einbauanweisung des Herstellers zu entnehmen.
Ein Beispiel für den Inhalt der Montageanweisungen des Herstellers ist in EN 1627:2021, Anhang A, beschrieben.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Wände und Dächer sowie für Türen, Tore und Schranken, die für den Einbau in Bereichen für den Zugang von Personen dienen und die hauptsächlich für einen sicheren Zugang für Güter und von Personen geführten Fahrzeugen in industriellen, gewerblichen und Wohnbereichen gedacht sind, welche in den Anwendungsbereich von EN 13241:2003+A2:2016 fallen.
ANMERKUNG Es ist wichtig, dass Bauprodukte, die durch Kraftfahrzeuge erreicht oder durchfahren werden können, durch geeignete Maßnahmen, wie Sperren, ausfahrbare Rampen usw., geschützt werden.
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 modes d’ouverture suivants : battant, oscillant, pliant, oscillo-battant, à gonds haut ou bas, coulissant (horizontalement et verticalement), pivotant (horizontalement et verticalement), à projection et à enroulement ainsi que constructions non ouvrables.
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 d’attaque indétectables susceptibles de neutraliser ces caractéristiques.
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.
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 dans l’EN 1627:2021, Annexe A.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux murs et toitures, ni 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 13241:2003+A2:2016.
NOTE Il est important que les produits de construction qui sont accessibles ou peuvent être empruntés par des véhicules, soient protégés par des moyens appropriés tels que barrières, rampes déployables, etc.

5.1 General
5.1.1 General
The test specimen shall be a functioning product complete with its frames, building hardware, guide rails,
curtain, tube, roller box and accessories, as appropriate.
The test specimen shall be fixed square and plumb and without twist or bend into a sub-frame.
The manufacturer shall ensure that the method of fixing, packing supports, sealing requirements, etc. of
the test specimen into the sub-frame are in accordance with their installation instructions (see
EN 1628:2021, Figures A.15 to A.63). The sub-frame shall be supported by the test rig so that there will
be no movement of the sub-frame during the test.
Installation shall be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions as detailed in
EN 1627:2021, Clause 10 including the method of fixing, packing supports, sealing requirements etc., as
shown in Annex D, Figures D.1 to D.18. The test specimen shall be located in the test rig at a height relative
to ground, nominally the same as intended in use, i.e. doors and French windows shall be mounted at
ground level and windows shall be mounted at a height of 800 mm from ground level. The test specimen
shall be installed in the sub-frame and test rig as close to the tester as possible to give maximum access
to the test specimen.
For products intended to be installed in orientations other than vertical (e.g. rooflights) the test specimen
shall be tested in the orientation of its intended use. When a range of intended orientations is considered,
the test shall be performed in the most vulnerable orientation for the test specimen.
The number of test specimens needed is described in EN 1627:2021, Clause 11.
NOTE Under particular circumstances, additional specimens might be required.
The specimen used in the static test carried out in accordance with EN 1628:2021, and in the dynamic
test carried out in accordance with EN 1629:2021, can also be used in the pre-test, provided that any
damage caused by those tests will not affect the result of the pre-test.
5.1.2 Product with glazing
For the purposes of testing according to this document, the test specimen shall be glazed according to the
relevant glazing resistance class of EN 356:1999, as shown in Table 1.

The glazing type fitted on the test specimen shall be the type (or one of the types) used for
classification purpose.
If a glass unit with a higher security level is used within the specimen used for the tests, it may not be
possible to assess the use of glass units with a lower grade within those products without conducting
further tests. This is because higher grades of glass can increase the rigidity of the product.
5.2 Preparation and examination of the specimen
The specimen shall be stored for at least 8 h in a temperature range between 15 °C and 30 °C until the
start of the test to ensure that it is fully tempered for the test.
The test specimen and sub-frame mounted in the test rig shall be visually examined for damage, defects
or other particular conditions of finish, etc. These shall be recorded.
The test specimen shall be in the closed condition specified by the manufacturer.
Each test specimen shall be examined and the direction to disengage each locking point shall be noted.
All locking hardware that can be disengaged from the attack side without the use of a key or tool shall be
disengaged during all tests.
NOTE This includes, for example, non-arresting latch bolts which are not engaged in the locking position.
The applicant shall supply the specimen pre-fitted in sub-frames (timber, aluminium or steel box section),
with the maximum permitted gap between the specimen frame and the sub-frame, according to their
installation instructions. The installation details and gap size shall be recorded in the test report. During
