Burglarproof safety glass by SILATEC is 20 times safer than traditional armored glass. 20 times. As the safest safety glazing in the world, it offers burglary protection of up to 20 minutes - even against an ax or a sledgehammer. A small eternity if one realizes that the potential burglar is every second in danger that the burglar will be caught red handed. And the burglarproof safety glass is even dramatically thinner than the traditional armored glass. By a multitude lighter. And additionally crystal clear without the green tint of the armored glass. A safety glazing for more safety and view.
Caution: The standard for burglarproof windows tests indeed the window frame, but not whether it includes a safety glazing! The standard only lists the glass types, which are quickly knocked in and which therefore explicitly do NOT deserve the name “burglarproof safety glass”. The burglarproof safety glass should in the end be at least as resistant as the tested window frame. The allocation is in principle very simple: Burglarproof safety glass, type SILATEC P6B is recommended for RC2 and RC3 windows, while burglarproof safety glass, type SILATEC P8B is recommended for RC4 - RV6 windows.
Burglarproof safety glass offers the same design options as entirely “normal” glass in normal windows: You have the choice of all conceivable forms, colors and materials. Burglarproof safety glass opens completely new opportunities: We deliver it in width of up to eight meters...
Yes, and without problems. We are successfully retrofitting burglarproof safety glass for decades. In old buildings and even in landmarked objects. Of course, for new buildings it is recommended to plan burglarproof safety glass from the beginning.
One should look at it in more detail: Because the DIN EN 356 safety standard for windows does NOT state that the glass must be tested. The glasses listed in the standard therefore do NOT represent burglarproof safety glass.
Based on practical experience it is recommended: For RC2 and RC3 windows: burglarproof safety glass, type SILATEC P6B. For RC4 - RC6 windows: burglarproof safety glass, type SILATEC P8B.
