burglary protection

Are you interested in burglar-proof windows?

Anti-burglary protection must be taken into account when buying a window, because in most cases criminals break in through the window. Burglars have enough of everything at their disposal, except time. Therefore, every minute that the window can withstand during a burglary attempt is important. It has been proven that the perpetrators give up the burglary after only a few minutes. The police advises that when buying windows, pay attention to a protection class of at least RC2

TECHNOLOGY

safetec

Burglary attempt prevented

As the third seal in the frame, the central cone on the one hand serves to improve the thermal sealing and on the other hand prevents the wing from being easily lifted with a lever.

TECHNOLOGY

BONDING

Adhesive technology for added safety

Bonded glass is first used in the automotive industry, where it has established itself as the standard solution. Garant has recognized the advantages of this technology and developed it further to meet the specific requirements of the construction industry.

The glass is glued around the frame. The adhesive provides an extra strong bond between the sash and the glass, the best way to prevent the glass from lifting out of the window sash. This fulfills one of the most important requirements for security class RC2

PROTECTION CLASS OVERVIEW RC​

Up until now, different protection classes have been used to classify burglary protection. In 2011, new anti-burglary standards were introduced. The new standard (DIN EN 1627) recognizes RC 1 N to RC 6. RC comes from the English “Resistance Class”. The following table contains an overview of the possible ways in which burglars can proceed according to protection class RC 1 N to RC 6 (WK 1 to WK 6).
