DIN EN 1523:1999-02

The document defines a test procedure to permit classification of the bullet resistance of windows, doors, shutters and blinds (complete with their infills). It concerns only behaviour in respect of the frame of the windows, doors, shutters or blinds, their infills and the junctions between the infills and frames. If the windows and doors are subjected to specific conditions of climate, specific conditions of test may be required. It does not apply only to the testing of glass infills. For the testing of glass infills refer to prEN 1063. The document gives no information on the behaviour of the frame subjected to other types of stresses. It gives no information on the bullet resistance of the junction between frame and the wall or other surrounding structure.
