BS EN 12320－PADLOCK STANDARDS

◆ BS EN 12320:2021 Building Hardware Padlocks & padlock fittings
This standard details performance requirements and test methods in relation to corrosion resistance , and security, with information on classification and marking.

◆ EN 12320 SCOPE
a) This European standard specifies
performance requirements and describes test methods for strength, security, functions and corrosion of padlocks and padlock fittings used in building applications, but excluding cables and chains.
b) Requirements which relate to security are classified in six grades , based on performance tests that simulate attack.
c) Human intervention , durability, manipulation and picking tests are not included in this standard.

◆ CLASSIFICATION
BS EN 12320 classifies padlocks and padlock fittings by using a 7 digit coding system. A similar classification applies to all building hardware product standards so that complementary items of hardware can be specified to, for instance, a common level of corrosion resistance , category of use, etc. Each digit refers to a particular feature of the product measured against the standard ‘s performance requirements.

√Digit 1 – Category of use
No requirement

√Digit 2 – Durability (no. of test cycles)
No requirement

√Digit 3 – Door mass
No requirement

√Digit 4 – Fire resistance
No requirement

◆ CE MARKING
BS EN 12320 has not been designated as a harmonised product standard under the Construction Products Directive and therefore CE marking of such padlocks and padlock fittings is NOT permitted.
