Security hardware and security escutcheons – Enhanced door security
Security hardware and security escutcheons provide reliable burglary protection and complement the equipment of entrance and side entrance doors both functionally and visually. They effectively protect the locking cylinder against tampering and are available in versions with or without core pull protection.
The models comply with current standards such as DIN 18257 and EN 1906 and offer security levels for different requirements. Robust materials such as stainless steel or aluminium ensure durability – even under heavy use. Electronic versions with access control are also available.
Thanks to flexible mounting systems, security hardware can be easily installed and adapted to different door types made of wood, steel or aluminium profiles – ideal for private, commercial or emergency exit doors.

suitability for fire protection
Approved for use on fire and smoke protection doors
lever handle and door knob
The EN 1906 standard concerns the requirements and test methods for door hardware, especially door handles and levers. It classifies this hardware into different categories based on frequency of use, durability, security, and corrosion resistance. An important feature is the durability test, in which the door handles must withstand a high number of operations; in the highest user category, at least 200,000 operations are required. The products must also be able to offer specific properties such as maintenance-free operation.
Emergency exit devices with lever handle or push plate for doors in escape routes
The EN 179 standard refers to emergency exit devices intended for use in buildings where it is expected that people familiar with the escape route can quickly and safely reach an exit in an emergency. These locking systems are designed to be easily opened in the event of an emergency. They require only a simple hand movement without the use of keys or similar aids. EN 179 specifies requirements for the design and performance of such systems to ensure their reliability and safety.
protective hardware and protective escutcheons
The DIN 18257 standard refers to protective fittings and protective escutcheons designed to protect locks against burglary attempts. This standard defines requirements and classifications for fittings intended to protect the profile cylinder of a lock as well as the cam from unauthorized mechanical manipulation. The protective fittings are divided into four resistance classes:- ES 0: low burglary resistance
- ES 1: moderate burglary resistance
- ES 2: high burglary resistance
- ES 3: extreme burglary resistance
These classes indicate how effectively a fitting protects against attempts at forced entry.
