The RC (Resistance Class) ratings are a system used to classify the level of security or resistance that a door or window provides
against forced entry, including burglary attempts.
The RC ratings are part of the European standards for security, particularly in relation to burglary resistance.
The European standard EN 1627:2021 specifies the classification of burglar resistance for doors, windows, curtain walling, and grilles.
RC2: Enhanced security. Offers resistance against a more determined attempt at forced entry using tools like pad saw, hack saw, and wedges.
RC3: Higher security. Designed to resist more advanced forms of attack, including using heavier tools like crowbars,
locksmith hammers, or hand drills.
These upgrades sit alongside our established portfolio, giving architects, contractors, and end users more control over risk, compliance, and performance. Whether the priority is footfall management, architectural impact, or high-security protection, we can now specify solutions that strike the right balance from day one.
