National foreword
This British Standard is the UK implementation of EN 1629:2011.
It supersedes DD ENV 1629:1999, which is withdrawn.
BSI, as a member of CEN, is obliged publish EN 1627, EN 1628,
EN 1629, and EN 1630 as British Standards. However, attention is
drawn to the fact that, during the development of these European
Standards, the UK committee voted against the approval of EN 1627,
EN 1628, and EN 1630, and appealed against the ratification of all
four standards.

This is due to the committee's belief that the standards do not

address all known burglary modus operendi and do not account for
lock picking within any of their scopes. Users are to be drawn, in this
case, to the existence of PAS 24, which provides enhanced security
performance requirements for door assemblies.

NOTE: A revision of PAS 24 to include windows will commence

in 2011.
The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to
Technical Committee B/538, Doors, windows, shutters, hardware
and curtain walling.
A list of organizations represented on this committee can be
obtained on request to its secretary.
This publication does not purport to include all the necessary
provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct
application.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of resistance to dynamic
loading in order to assess the burglar resistant properties of pedestrian doorsets, windows, curtain
walling, grilles and shutters. It is applicable to the following means of opening: Turning, tilting, folding,
turn-tilting, top or bottom hung, sliding (horizontally and vertically) and rolling as well as fixed
constructions.

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. Due to the limitation of
reproducing the fixing methods and building construction in a laboratory environment this aspect is
not fully covered by the standard. This is particularly true with products built into a building. The
performance of the fixed part of the product is evaluated using a standard sub frame. It is the
manufacturer´s responsibility to ensure that guidance on the fixing of the product is contained in the
mounting instructions and that this guidance is suitable for the burglar resistance class claimed for the
product. As with the other referenced standards this specification uses a standard sub frame and the
product is mounted according to the manufacturer´s instructions. The fixing method to be considered
is detailed in Annex A of EN 1627:2011. This test method does not evaluate the performance of the
fixing to the building.

This European Standard does not apply to 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 13241-1.

BS EN 1629:2011
EN 1629:2011 (E)

6.2 Impact points, directions and test sequence

6.2.1 General

The dynamic loads specified in EN 1627:2011, Table 6 shall be applied at the impact points and in the
impact directions given in [Link], using the specified impacting unit. The impact direction shall be
perpendicular to the plane of the test specimen.

The test sequence shall be as given in Annex B, Figure B.1.

6.2.2 Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 products

[Link] General

For Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 products, the impacts shall be applied once to each corner and
three times to the centre of the test specimen. For test specimens without corners (circular), four
points shall be selected that are approximately equidistant around the edge of the test specimen. The
impact points shall be as described in [Link] - [Link] and, as shown in Annex A, Figures A.21 to
A.29. Test specimen with more than one glazing or infilling smaller than 150 mm x 300 mm (w x h)
shall be impacted three times at the centre of the glazed or infilling area. Test specimen with glazing
or infillings smaller than 150 mm x 300 mm (w x h) shall not be tested.

As the dynamic test is intended to simulate physical attacks without the use of tools (e.g. shoulder
blows or kicks), the impacts shall strike the product on the attack side.

[Link] Hinged doors, single or double leaf doors and sliding doors

This test shall not be performed on any door leaf or infilling of less than 150 mm width (see Annex A,
Figure A.21, dimension A).

If the distance between two adjacent impact points is less than 300 mm (see Annex A, Figure A.21,
dimension B), only the mid-point between those impact points shall be tested.

If the door leaf and/or infilling is narrower than 150 mm (see Annex A, Figure A.21, dimension C), the
impact shall be omitted.

NOTE The impact is always on the attack side. This test simulates a violent physical attack e.g. shoulder
blows or kicks.

[Link] Double doors

Unless the applicant instructs to the contrary, both doors shall be tested. The applicant may request
the test for the double door on one door only, in which case the test shall be applied as for a single-
leaf door.

The inside leaf of the double door shall be fully removed to allow a complete dynamic test of the outer
door. The outer door shall then be removed and the inside door tested.

The test sequence is shown in Annex A, Figure A.22.

[Link] Side-hinged windows, sliding windows and pivot windows with one or more
casements

The test shall not be performed on infillings of less than 150 mm width (see Annex A, Figure A.23,
dimension A).

8
 BS EN 1629:2011
EN 1629:2011 (E)

If the distance between two adjacent impact points is less than 300 mm (see Annex A, Figure A.23,
dimension B), only the mid-point between those impact points shall be tested.

One impact shall be applied to each corner of the infilling and three impacts shall be applied to the
centre of each infilling.

NOTE The impact is always on the attack side. This test simulates a violent physical attack e.g. shoulder
blows or kicks.

[Link] Single wing shutters

The test shall not be performed on infillings of less than 200 mm width (see Annex A, Figure A.24,
dimension A).

If the distance between two adjacent impact points is less than 300 mm (see Annex A, Figure A.24,
dimension B), only the mid-point between those impact points shall be tested.

One impact shall be applied to each corner of infilling or leaf and three impacts shall be applied to the
centre of each infilling or leaf.

NOTE The impact is always on the attack side. This test simulates a violent physical attack e.g. shoulder
blows or kicks.

[Link] Multi-leaf wing shutters

Multi leaf wing shutters shall first be impacted at the impact points on the meeting edges as shown in
Annex A, Figure A.25 (V) and thereafter at the hinges as shown in Annex A, Figure A.25 (B).

All other impact points shall be tested as described in [Link].

[Link] Folding shutters

Multi leaf wing shutters shall first be impacted at the impact points on the meeting edges as shown in
Annex A, Figure A.26 (V) and thereafter at the hinges, as shown in Annex A, Figure A.26 (B).

If all hinges are identical then a minimum of four shall be chosen and tested.

All other impact points shall be tested as described in [Link].

[Link] Roller shutters

One impact shall be applied to each corner of the roller curtain and three impacts shall be applied to
the centre of the roller curtain. The test sequence is shown in Annex A, Figure A.27.

NOTE The impact is always on the attack side. This test simulates a violent physical attack e.g. shoulder
blows or kicks.

6.2.3 Group 4 products

For Group 4 products, the impacts shall be applied to grilles as shown in Figures A.28 to A.29. Infilling
openings that are smaller than gap gauge D as shown in Figure A.14 of EN 1628:2011 shall not be
tested.

One impact shall be applied to each corner of the roller curtain and three impacts shall be applied to
the centre of the roller curtain.

9
BS EN 1629:2011
EN 1629:2011 (E)

NOTE The impact is always applied to the non-attack side. This test simulates the pulling of the grilles.
When impacting grilles, a plate 250 mm square may be used to spread the impact and prevent damage to the
impactor.

As the dynamic test is intended to simulate a physical attack in which the primary objective is to
remove the product by pulling it away from the building without the use of tools, the impacts shall
strike the product on the opposite side of the attack side.

6.3 Impact test procedure

The dynamic loads specified in EN 1627:2011 shall be applied at the impact points shown in Annex A,
Figures A.21 to A.29 of this Standard using the pendulum impactor, which shall be raised to the
appropriate drop height and stabilized. At the drop height the suspension cable shall be taut and the
axis of the cable and pendulum impactor shall be in line.

The pendulum impactor shall be released and allowed to swing freely against the test specimen. If it
rebounds then the impactor shall be restrained and not allowed to strike the product for a second time.
This shall be repeated as specified in EN 1627:2011. Before and after each impact, the test specimen
shall be visually inspected. After each impact, the test specimen shall be inspected for damage and
assessed for failure and any damage to the specimen shall be recorded. When using the gap gauge
to assess failure a force of 200 N shall be applied directly to the test specimen and at a point to
increase any aperture and therefore increase the possibility that the gap gauge can pass through.

NOTE A hand-held force gauge has been successfully used for this procedure.

7 Expression of results
The product shall be deemed to have failed if the gap gauge D can pass through an aperture in the
product.

8 Test report
The test report shall include the following details:

a) name and address of the person or body carrying out the testing;
