Why Break-in Resistance Is Important

Burglary resistance is a critical factor in protecting people and property. ALUMIL window and door systems are designed to deter break-in attempts by combining durable profiles, advanced mechanisms, and certified security features. This significantly enhances the sense of security in every space.

High levels of protection

The level of burglary resistance offered by a frame can vary and serve other needs, depending on the space at hand. ALUMIL certified systems fall into three protection classes (RC), so you can choose the solution that meets the needs of your space. Each category is listed below, depending on the procedure applied during the tests.

RC2 Level Protection
The potential burglar tries with simple tools, such as screwdrivers, pliers and a wedge, to breach a locked and bolted frame to the structural elements.
RC3 Level Protection
The potential burglar tries with additional tools, such as a second screwdriver and a crowbar, to breach the locked and bolted frame to the structural elements.
RC4 Level Protection
A more experienced burglar uses a saw and extra tools, such as a crowbar, hammer, chisel, and cordless drill, attempting to breach the frame.

This is the Resistance Class. The higher the number that accompanies the initials RC (e.g. RC2, RC3, etc.), the stronger the resistance of the frame to the pressures it will receive with the aim of breaking it.
Through demanding tests and controls, the level of burglary protection of a frame can be calculated and certified and received the class corresponding to its capabilities.
ALUMIL ensures the high performance of its systems in the field of burglary resistance, through demanding tests it performs. Test chamber audits have major international certification institutes as notified bodies, providing the necessary accreditations and verifications for their results.
The low threshold or in other words, the low lower guide, plays an important role in the unhindered and safe passage of users, while also offering a harmonious aesthetic result.
