Mechanical Locks EN Standards
About
- Euro-profile mortise locks and cylinders to EN 12209 and EN 1303 from Allegion's European brands, CISA, Briton, Bricard, Legge and ITO Kilit, in escape, anti-panic and security variants with drill and pick resistance grades. The Euro cylinder is a separate component from the lock case, so the security level can be upgraded later without changing the lock.
Application
The default across European-specified projects in Egypt, the Levant and North Africa, and on any door whose ironmongery schedule is written to EN. On escape doors the lock must allow egress with a single action from the inside regardless of the state of the outside handle, the point that most commonly fails a fire officer's inspection, and the one that cannot be corrected by adding hardware afterwards.
