PAS24 certification is a crucial standard for door security in the UK. It ensures that doors meet stringent requirements for enhanced protection against forced entry. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of PAS24 certification and how it can provide peace of mind for homeowners and businesses alike.

Introduction

PAS24 is a British standard that sets the benchmark for door security. Developed by the British Standards Institution (BSI), PAS24 certification is awarded to doors that have undergone rigorous testing to demonstrate their resistance to physical attacks and forced entry attempts.

Enhanced Security

The primary benefit of PAS24 certification is the enhanced security it provides. Doors that have achieved this certification have been tested against a range of attack methods, including:

• Shoulder barging
• Kicking
• Levering
• Drilling
• Picking locks

By successfully resisting these attack methods, PAS24-certified doors offer a higher level of protection against break-ins and unauthorized entry.

Peace of Mind

Investing in a PAS24-certified door provides homeowners and businesses with peace of mind. Knowing that your door has been rigorously tested and certified to withstand forced entry attempts can help you feel more secure in your property.

Insurance Benefits

Many insurance companies recognize the value of PAS24 certification and may offer reduced premiums for properties with PAS24-certified doors. This is because these doors significantly reduce the risk of break-ins, which can lead to costly insurance claims.

Compliance with Building Regulations

PAS24 certification is often a requirement for new build properties and renovations in the UK. By choosing a PAS24-certified door, you ensure compliance with building regulations and avoid potential issues with local authorities.

Quality Assurance

Doors that have achieved PAS24 certification have undergone extensive testing and evaluation. This process not only assesses the door's security features but also its overall quality and durability. When you choose a PAS24-certified door, you can be confident that you are investing in a high-quality product that will stand the test of time.
