Attack resistance

The attack resistance according to DIN EN 1303 (8th class) indicates how resistant a lock cylinder is to drilling and core pulling as an attack variant.

DIN EN 1303

  • 1. point - use class (1 class possible)
  • 2. point - durability (3 classes possible)
  • 3. point - door dimensions (no classification)
  • 4. point - fire resistance (3 classes possible)
  • 5. point - operational safety (1 class possible)
  • 6. point - corrosion resistance and temperature (4 classes possible)
  • 7. point - closure safety (6 classes possible)
  • 8. point - attack resistance (5 classes possible)

 

The cylinders are classified in classes 0 to D. Testing is carried out by an accredited testing institute.

The attack resistance consists of a combination of several requirements.

 

Attack resistance

consists of a combination of several requirements

  • AD in min = Drilling time in minutes
  • GD-ZK in kN = Total duration against tensile force in kN
  • resilience
Cl. AD in min GD-ZK in kN resilience
0 - - no resistance to mechanical attack
A 3/5 - resistance to mechanical attack, except for pulling out the core of cylinder / lock cylinder
B 5/10 - resistance to mechanical attack, except for pulling out the core of cylinder / lock cylinder
C 3/5 10 resistance to mechanical attack tensile force 10 kN
D 5/10 15 resistance to mechanical attack tensile force 15 kN
