European standards and certifications for mechanical locking

Building design, specification and construction are awash with standards and certifications. When choosing a mechanical access or security solution, which are the most important ones to consider? And what are the added benefits of choosing a solution with patent protection?

Put together by the global leaders in access solutions, this video explains the most important independent standards in mechanical locking and security. Coverage includes:

o EN 1303: an 8-digit coding which reports on a range of performance tests for cylinders
o EN 12320: a similar standard which applies to padlocks, padlock fittings & keys
o TS 007: UK certification for cylinders, door handles & other door hardware
o SKG: star-based rating of resistance to common forms of destructive attack & key security
