Security and windows

My Windows and Doors: When you decide to change your windows or buy woodwork, you must, in addition to performance, think safety thereof. For a house or apartment located on the ground floor, all openings are sensitive points that can be forced by burglars.

Therefore, when buying windows, make sure to ask what is the level of security of these. There are, of course, different levels of security for windows. The most important is called the WK2:

Child safety standard certified WK2, the window is fitted over the entire leaf of a special fitting and locking handle. A shock resistant special glass P4A class (according to EN 356) improves security. The window is also raised with dowels or screws.
By choosing to install windows and doors to balcony or terrace in accordance with Class Certified (WK 2) resistance standard, you get a high level of protection against break-ins.

In addition to being resistant to pressure and shock, the window can not be opened (according to DIN standard) by simple mechanical manipulation (eg with a wedge, pliers or a screwdriver).

Note that certified security levels WK 1 and WK 2 models meet the DIN standards. When strength classes are not certified, no safety mark is affixed. You can verify this directly on your products.

The weather resistance of the glazing at a break varies depending on its quality:

     Single and double glazing: 30 seconds
     laminated double glazing: 3 minutes
     double glazing latecomer burglary: 6 minutes

It is recommended to upgrade to a minimum of laminated glazing to deter potential burglars and if you can, to be equipped with a burglar-proof glazing on your windows. To properly protect an opening, the burglar glazing is in a process of security and protection which must be comprehensive. It can include the security window, a window alarm and optionally a grille for windows.

The goal of a burglar glazing is resisting attempts to break the glass from the outside. You should also check the hardware store window must also be optimized to face burglary attempts. When it comes to hardware, we talk about all the elements for opening and closing a window hinges, screws, nails ...

 

To enhance the security of your house, optional systems can be added:

    - security bolts: preventing system out the window from its hinges from the outside;
    - latches : allow to leave open while preventing its full opening window;
    - grid security, etc.
