Enhanced Security Windows

BM TRADA operates enhanced security Q-Mark schemes for windows and doors, to support Secured By Design (SBD), the police initiative to reduce crime on housing developments by incorporating crime prevention measures at the design stage.

BM TRADA's schemes for enhanced security were introduced to support the testing requirements for window assemblies and doorsets to achieve SBD approval:

Windows - BS 7950 'Enhanced security test for tilt/turn window assemblies', plus material specific test standard (e.g. BS 7412, BS644, BS6510, BS 4873).

Doors - PAS 23 and PAS 24 testing for 'General' and 'Enhanced security' performance of door assemblies.

Certification is a requirement for ground floor windows and entrance doors in SBD developments. It provides the assurance that the windows/doorsets installed on site meet the same high standards as those tested and therefore offer the same protection.
