Gilgen first to reach EU standards for security shutters

Gilgen Door Systems has helped raise physical security standards again by becoming the first UK manufacturer to launch a range of security roller shutters tested and approved to the European standard BS EN1627:2011.

Following a stringent test programme designed to assess resistance to a wide range of professional attack methods, three models in the Rolegard™ security range were tested and certified by the LPCB* (Loss Prevention Certification Board) to RC3 and RC4 standards.

Alongside the new models Gilgen will continue to provide a comprehensive range of high security shutters that meet UK Loss Prevention and ‘Secured by Design’ standards with models tested to LPS1175, issue 7, level 2 to level 5. The company’s investment in these new RC3-4 models means it can provide a solution for building projects where the European standard has been specified, giving customers’ across the globe the reassurance that their entrances are protected to the required standard.

Commenting on the launch, Managing Director, David Cerquella said “We are delighted to launch these new models which are a result of our continuous programme of product development and testing. We have listened to customers at home and overseas markets and will continue to develop solutions that enable them to mitigate developing risks”.
