Are you a manufacturer of safes?

The certification A2P leads to a classification of safes according to their resistance to burglar attempts.

These are different categories of safes designed for both private individuals and operators of sensitive establishments in the banking, industrial, and commercial sectors.
 

The certified characteristics:

• certified safes are designed to resist burglary attempts, unauthorized opening, tampering, cyberattacks, and originate from manufacturing process with controlled quality.
• the standard exclusively concerns:
  •  the certification regarding burglary resistance for safes, ATM safes, deposit safes, domestic safes, strong doors, vaults, safe bases, safe locks, strong security enclosure walls;
  • or vis-à-vis the effectiveness of the neutralization mode and the triggering mode for the banknote neutralization systems; 
  • or vis-à-vis their resistance to attacks by a ram vehicle for the door sets, curtain and over-locking of strong security enclosure equipments .

Certified characteristics vary depending on product type: they may include resistance to destructive attacks, resistance to sophisticated opening attempts (logical attacks or fine manipulation), number of combination possibilities, electromagnetic compatibility, reliability, compliance with relevant standards EN1300 (e.g. for High Security Locks HSL).

Certified features cover:

- the ability to resist unauthorized opening attempts, for a given time, to reasoned attacks from one or more operators using (their) physical strength and defined tools (hand, electrical and thermal tools depending on the case),
- the ability of the lock intended to equip these products to resist destructive attacks and fine or logical opening attempts,
- the applicable provisions of EN 1143-1 standards (safes, ATMs, strong doors and strong rooms).
