RC
The EN 1627 standard is a European standard that defines requirements and classifications for burglar-resistant components such as doors, windows, curtain walls, grilles, and roller shutters. This standard is part of a series of standards, which also includes EN 1628, EN 1629, and EN 1630, covering various aspects of testing these products for their resistance to burglary.Resistance classes (RC = Resistance Class) are a central element of this standard and indicate how well a component withstands a burglary attempt. There are several resistance classes, from RC 1 to RC 6, with each higher class offering better protection. [doc2]
