Standards and safety requirements
Our window fittings for timber systems meet the highest standards for air and water tightness as well as wind load resistance. For maximum burglary protection, the hardware lines are tested and certified in various security classes according to EN 1627-1630. In addition, we offer retrofit burglary-resistant products according to DIN 18104 for subsequent upgrades. To design windows and window doors barrier-free in accordance with DIN 18040, numerous optional components are available. Continuous monitoring and certification of all fittings is carried out as part of the QM328 certification program.
barrier-free construction
The DIN 18040 standard deals with the planning principles for barrier-free construction. It is divided into different parts that cover various aspects of construction to enable people with disabilities, elderly persons, and children to participate equally in everyday life. An important aspect of this standard is the easy opening of doors without external assistance. In this context, requirements are placed on door closers, such as limiting the operating forces to ensure that doors are easily accessible.
Windows – Classification of mechanical properties – Vertical loads, torsion and operating forces
This standard is a tool for classifying the performance characteristics of openable windows according to their resistance, where applicable, to vertical loads (displacement), static torsion, and the manual operating forces required. Special aspects, such as burglary resistance, are not covered.
Windows and doors – product standard
The standard DIN EN 14351-1 deals with the product standard and performance characteristics of windows and external doors that are not subject to special requirements for fire or smoke tightness. It specifies how these products are to be tested with regard to their energy efficiency, watertightness, air permeability, and other performance characteristics. This standard is essential for the CE marking of such construction products in Europe.
Locks and building hardware – Corrosion resistance – Requirements and test methods
DIN EN 1670 is a standard that defines requirements and test methods for the corrosion resistance of building hardware. In practice, for example, a minimum corrosion resistance class of class 3 according to EN 1670 is required, which corresponds to protection against corrosion as necessary for products exposed to sea air or industrial areas with high air pollution.
air permeability
The EN 12207 standard refers to the classification of air permeability of windows and doors. It defines how much air can pass through a closed window or door under certain conditions. The test is carried out by applying pressure differences across the product to measure its air tightness. These measurements are important for assessing the energy efficiency and comfort in buildings.
driving rain tightness
DIN EN 12208 is a European standard that deals with the classification of watertightness for windows and doors. It specifies how much water can penetrate a closed window or door under certain conditions. The test involves applying water pressure to the external surface of the product to assess its ability to prevent water ingress. This assessment is important for protection against moisture damage and to ensure energy efficiency in buildings.
resistance to wind load
The DIN EN 12210 standard relates to the resistance of windows and doors to wind loads. It specifies how these building components must be tested under various pressure conditions to assess their ability to withstand wind loads. These tests are crucial for ensuring the safety and stability of buildings during strong winds or storms.
Windows and doors – Mechanical load – Requirements and classification
This standard defines the procedure for the classification of opening windows and doors with regard to long-term functional performance. The classes take into account normal and intended use.
Requirements and test methods for tilt and turn, turn and tilt, and turn fittings
The standard DIN EN 13126-8 deals with building hardware for windows and window doors, in particular tilt and turn, turn and tilt, and turn fittings. It defines the requirements and test methods to ensure that these fittings comply with the relevant standards in terms of durability, strength, and protective function.
Series of standards for burglar-resistant building products
The standards EN 1627 to EN 1630 address burglary resistance of windows, doors and closures. They specify the requirements, classifications and test methods for products intended to protect against burglary attempts.- EN 1627 defines the general requirements and classifications.
- EN 1628 describes the test method for determining resistance under static load.
- EN 1629 covers the test method for determining resistance under dynamic load.
- EN 1630 focuses on the test method for determining resistance against manual burglary attempts.
These standards are crucial for construction products used in security-relevant areas.
burglar-resistant retrofit products
The standard deals with retrofit products for increasing burglary resistance.
VDS
Profile cylinders with this marking are available in VdS version.
SKG class 2
Products certified with SKG class 2 offer medium protection against burglary attempts. This classification is suitable for areas where increased security is required.Features of SKG class 2:
- Resistance time: The product offers a potential burglar a longer resistance time than products of class 1.
- Application area: Ideal for residential buildings and other premises where additional protection is desired.
