Abstract

Specifies the general design criteria, performance requirements and procedures for testing padlocks for their resistance to physical attacks and corrosion under condition of low to high frequency usage.

RECONFIRMATION NOTICE
Major stakeholders of this publication have reviewed the content of this publication and in accordance with Standards Australia procedures for reconfirmation, it has been determined that the publication is still valid and does not require change.
Certain documents referenced in the publication may have been amended since the original date of publication. Users are advised to ensure that they are using the latest versions of such documents as appropriate, unless advised otherwise in this Reconfirmation Notice.
Approved for reconfirmation in accordance with Standards Australia procedures for reconfirmation on 29 August 2018.

Scope

This Standard sets out general design criteria, performance requirements and procedures for testing padlocks for their resistance to physical attacks and corrosion under condition of low-frequency to high-frequency usage, interior or exterior.
This Standard also sets out performance requirements for key lockable, key unlockable and non-key lockable and non-key unlockable padlocks.
This Standard applies to padlocks used in conjunction with padlock fittings. Requirements that relate to
(a) physical security are classified under 10 levels, based on performance tests that simulate attack;
(b) corrosion resistance are classified under five levels, based on standard accelerated corrosion tests; and
(c) durability are classified under three levels, based on operational tests under condition of low-frequency to high-frequency usage.
NOTE: Picking or impressioning are beyond the scope of this Standard.
