Comar 5P.i. Tilt & Turn Window Passes Security Test

Comar Architectural Aluminium Systems are pleased to announce that Comar 5P.i. Tilt & Turn window passed the enhanced security British Standard: BS 7950.

The security tests were carried out by BRE, a UKAS accredited test house. The Comar 5P.i. Tilt & Turn window is internally beaded with a 24mm double glazed unit.

The BS 7950 security test sequence consisted of manipulation, manual check, glazing removal and mechanical load tests.

The manipulation and manual check tests objective was to unfasten or disengage the window’s locking system. In the manipulation test, implements such as steel wires, paint scrapers, craft knives, joiners bolsters, wood chisels and screw drivers were used and, in the manual check test, nail bars and flat bladed screwdrivers were used to try to break through hinges, locking and fixing points. The Comar 5P.i. window remained impervious to these attacks.

The glazing removal test, which replicated a forced entry, consisted of manual and mechanical tests. The manual glazing removal test attempted to remove gaskets, beads, locks and glazing using the same selection of implements as the manipulation test. For the mechanical test, a perpendicular-to-plane load of 2.0kN was applied to each corner of the glazing in turn for a period of three minutes. As a result of both tests the glazing was not removed.

In order to test further the strength of the Comar 5P.i. window a mechanical load test was undertaken with sample 2. This test consisted of an application of parallel-to-plane load which was maintained until a perpendicular-to-plane load had been applied and removed in a sequence of loading at the top of the hinged side, then progressed across the top, down the opening side, along the bottom and up the hinged edge. Again, the window withstood this attack.

The Comar 5P.i. tilt and turn window is part of the energy efficient Comar 5P.i. window suite. Thermal performance is achieved with a 20mm polyamide strip rolled-in between two separately extruded profiles. Copies of the test results, DVD and full Technical Manuals are available upon request.
