BURGLAR-RESISTANT SECURITY DOORS – GUARANTEEING MAXIMUM PROTECTION WITH MAXIMUM FUNCTIONALITY

Criminal police statistics show that burglaries in private homes and apartments are frequent targets for burglars. Other targets include private villas, critical infrastructure, jewelry stores, museums, state institutions and other objects requiring special protection.

According to current statistics, the clearance rate is approx. 19 %.

This means that the protection of these objects and facilities is of particular importance. Poorly secured windows and doors offer little resistance and therefore allow people to break in or break out. The risk of detection is usually low. However, the statistics also show that burglaries can be prevented by security technology. Because the decisive factor is time. Time that our security doors create.

Doors are the calling card of the house. In addition to the appearance and design, they must guarantee the desired protection – whether in private or public areas – regardless of the type of material, shape and opening method. We offer burglar-resistant security doors in wood, wood-aluminum, aluminum and steel for a wide range of threat scenarios relating to general crime, violent crime and terrorism.

Our security doors combine long-lasting functional security with high-quality design. Whether as a stylish front door or a high-traffic commercial door, our pioneering systems offer architects and planners reliable and user-oriented solutions for every security requirement – with a wide range of design options.

Criminal police statistics show that burglaries in private homes and apartments are frequent targets for burglars. All our burglar-resistant security doors are certified against burglary by independent testing institutes in accordance with DIN EN 1627 – 1630 in the form of a static, dynamic and manual tool test to ensure the highest security standards.

Another way to increase the security of the building and thus the protection against burglary is to use electronic security components (including alarm glass, alarm sensors, magnetic contacts, bolt contacts), which can be invisibly integrated into the constructions of our security doors. By installing these security components, the windows are monitored for opening, locking and breaching. The components used here comply with the valid VdS classes A, B & C. Our own patented security components for increased convenience and security against burglary round off our portfolio.

Our references in the field of burglar-resistant security doors include federal facilities (e.g. federal ministries, offices of various constitutional bodies), EU country representations, German embassies, residences of German ambassadors, residential properties of members of various federal and state constitutional bodies, people at risk from politics, business and other areas of public life, courts, police and military facilities and Jewish facilities.

MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENTS FOR SECURITY DOORS

Wall connection

In addition to the burglar-resistant element, the wall connection plays a decisive role.

This must be sufficiently stable and have an appropriate strength in accordance with DIN EN 1627 to withstand mechanical attacks.

We ensure professional installation using tested fixing and sealing materials and specially trained installation personnel.

Glazing

Burglar-resistant elements must be fitted with appropriate attack-resistant glazing in accordance with DIN EN 1627.

Burglar-resistant glazing is defined in DIN EN 356.

We use safety glass in various thicknesses, depending on the requirements profile, as toughened safety glass (TSG), laminated safety glass (LSG) and polycarbonate glass (PC) in our systems.

Glass connection

The glass connection of burglar-resistant elements must be designed in accordance with the resistance classes so that it has sufficient stability and strength.

In order to withstand mechanical attacks, e.g. prying open, puncturing or smashing, our burglar-resistant elements, incl. of the glass connections in accordance with DIN EN 1627-1630.

Safety set

In order to guarantee the protection of the mechanical locking points, protective fittings must be used for security doors in accordance with the DIN 18257 and DIN EN 1906 standards, or their suitability must be proven in an element test in accordance with DIN EN 1627-1630.

These are combined with a locking cylinder that is classified in accordance with DIN 18252 or DIN EN 1303.

Multi-point locking

To ensure that the door is securely locked, we generally use high-quality multi-point locks of various designs.

The 3- or 5-point locking systems must be classified in accordance with the DIN 18251 standard or have proven their suitability in an element test in accordance with DIN EN 1627-1630.

In special cases, mortise locks can also achieve the resistance class.

Hinges & hinge side locks

For a stable connection of the door leaf to the frame, sufficiently dimensioned door hinges are required which, in addition to the door weight, can also withstand the static, dynamic and manual forces exerted during an attempted break-in.

These hinges can be supplemented with hinge side protectors, which also secure the rebate.

The suitability of the hinge side solutions must be verified by a corresponding element test in accordance with DIN EN 1627-1630.

The systems monitor the status of the window or sliding element for opening and closing

The components used here comply with the valid VdS classes A, B & C.

Alarm glass

Alarm glass is toughened glass (ESG) that is equipped with an alarm spider (glass breakage detector).

This can be either visible or completely concealed.

The components used here correspond to the valid VdS classes C.

Bolt switch contact

Electromechanical lock monitoring systems offer individual solutions for intrusion and hazard detection.

The systems monitor the locking status of the door element.

The components used here comply with the valid VdS classes C.

SAFETY GLASS FOR BURGLAR RESISTANCE

Our burglar-resistant security windows are generally fitted with security glass in accordance with DIN EN 1627 – 1630 equipped.

Of course, we also use higher-quality safety glazing at the customer’s request.

Attack-resistant glazing is defined in DIN EN 356 and divided into different resistance classes (P-A and P-B classes).

There are two types of attack-resistant glazing: Glass with the suffix “A” is impact-resistant, glass with the suffix “B” is break-through-resistant.

Safety glasses in the P-A classes

Glasses in the P-A classes are tested with falling balls (DIN EN 356). A metal ball with a diameter of 10 cm and a mass of 4.11 kg is dropped from various heights onto a 110 x 90 cm target. The more film there is between the individual layers of glass, the thicker the pane becomes and the longer it takes for the pane to be broken through.

Penetration-resistant glazing repels spontaneous attacks and offers protection against penetration and vandalism.

For example, a P4A target must withstand the fall of the ball from 9 m three times.

Safety glasses of the P-B classes

Glasses in the P-B classes are tested with a machine-guided axe (DIN EN 356). This involves trying to make a 40 x 40 cm hole in a 110 x 90 cm pane.

The 2 kg axe is struck against the test disk at a speed of 11 m/s (39.6 km/h). The number of strokes simulates the use of different tools.

In deviation from DIN EN 1627, the police recommend the use of glazing in resistance class P6B from resistance class RC3.

A P6B washer, for example, has to withstand between 30 and 50 impacts before it breaks through.

WE USE THREE TYPES OF SECURITY GLASS IN OUR SECURITY WINDOWS, SECURITY DOORS, SECURITY SLIDING DOORS AND SECURITY FACADES

Toughened
safety glass (ESG)

Toughened safety glass (TSG) is a thermally toughened soda-lime glass in which a strong internal tension is built up through heat treatment. This significantly increases temperature, impact and shock resistance compared to normal float glass. When it breaks, it disintegrates into small, compact cubes, effectively reducing the risk of cuts and impact injuries.

Toughened safety glass (ESG) is mainly used for alarm glass.

Advantages

of toughened safety glass (ESG)

  • Use with alarm glass
  • Increased impact and shock resistance
  • Insensitive to temperature differences
  • Increased flexural strength

In the event of breakage, ESG shatters into many small blunt fragments and triggers the alarm.

Compound
Safety glass (VSG)

Laminated safety glass (LSG) consists of two or more panes with interlayers in between. This is referred to as glass-foil-glass bonding. The number of highly elastic polyvinyl butyral (PVB) films can vary according to the resistance class. The panes are becoming thicker and heavier depending on the safety requirements.

Advantages

of laminated safety glass (VSG)

  • Fragments adhere to foil
  • Bullet-resistant (depending on thickness)
  • Speech inhibiting (depending on thickness)
  • Higher sound insulation

Increased burglary protection, minimized risk of injury.

Polycarbonate
glass (PC)

Polycarbonate (PC) is a thermoplastic and is used in particular when classic laminated safety glass reaches its limits (too thick, too heavy) or customers have a special need for protection.

Polycarbonate glass combines the special properties of glass and polycarbonate. Glass is very scratch-resistant and rigid. Polycarbonate, on the other hand, is very light, impact-resistant and has a relatively soft surface. The combination of the two materials results in very good and highly transparent safety glass that impresses with its high resistance.

Advantages

of polycarbonate glass (PC)

  • Permanently elastic bonding between glass and PC,
    Glass = scratch-resistant + rigid, PC = impact-resistant
  • Very burglar-proof
  • Very bulletproof
  • Very light
  • High strength and rigidity
  • Excellent impact strength

High protection against burglary attempts
