Abstract

This standard defines the requirements and classification that windows, doors, shutters and blinds must satisfy when tested in accordance with EN 1523. This standard is applicable to attacks by hand guns, rifles and shotguns on windows, doors, shutters and blinds complete with their frames and infills, for use in both internal and external locations in buildings. Shutters and Blinds must be tested separately and not in conjunction with a window or door, in order to achieve classification in terms of bullet resistance. This standard gives no information on the behavior of the test item when subjected to other types of stresses. It gives no information on the bullet resistance of the junction between the frame and the wall or other surrounding structur1). 1) Care should be taken to ensure that all joints between the wall and the door, window, shutter or blind have bullet protection which is at least equal to that of the door, window, shutter or blind.
