Protecting Lives and Property. Worldwide. 2

Facades Highest Security and individual Design

The facade is the most important factor in the appearance of any

building. Despite the high levels of protection offered by the

SÄLZER system it also allows a considerable degree of creativi-

ty by architects, designers and owners alike during the design

stages. The system is compatible with all windows and doors

from the extensive range offered by SÄLZER and can be tailored

to the same threat levels.

Many threat scenarios require simultaneous protection against

forced entry, ballistic and blast attacks. Exactly for these com-

bined security requirements SÄLZER facades offers the optimal

solution:

Forced Entry Resistance* Up to RC4 with 50 mm / 60 mm profile width

Up to RC5 with 73 mm cover profile width

Bullet Resistance Up to FB4-NS with 50 mm profile width

Up to FB7-NS with 60 mm profile width

Blast Resistance Different tests up to a reflect pressure of 357.5 kPa (3.575 bar)

with 60 mm profile width, GSA Level 2 (no splinters)

Complete building envelope from SÄLZER: double glazed facade with windows, doors, glass roofs and panel inserts. Despite the high incorporated security the architec-ture won the highly coveted architecture award RIBA EU.

* tests from both faces of the facade ensures safety against escape attempts from the inside also (e.g. application in prison, forensic hospitals).

Advantages at a Glance Thermal insulated aluminium mullion-transom construction, available as vertical or

slanting single- or double facade, element facade, sloping roof construction, as

window ribbons or as skylights.

Large grid dimensions for maximum light transmittance.

Narrow profile widths: 50 or 60 mm (RC5: 73 mm).

Combined protection against forced entry / break-out*, ballistic attacks and explo-

sion.

Every facade is individually manufactured and is anything but an "off the shelf

product”.

The facade can be combined with all products in SYSTEM SÄLZER® (windows,

doors).

Minimal maintenance necessary.

Independent from the security classes all products in SYSTEM SÄLZER® have the

same appearance.

Precise workmanship, highest product quality and many years of experience from

various projects are the foundations of the family owned business for over 80

years.

Available in 2 series:

Series S1- S6-50

Series S1- S6-60

Despite a high safety against terrorist attacks the facade offers an open and elegant design.

The series differ by

different widths of

the profiles and

cover profiles (50 or

60 mm) as well as

by different security

levels.

* tests from both faces of the facade ensures safety against escape attempts from the inside also (e.g. application in prison, forensic hospitals).

Each project starts with the

consulting and planning,

over the production up to

the reliable installation. Our

worldwide active installa-

tion team install profession-

ally also under the hardest

climatic conditions.

Photo above: unsupported facade with aluminium door installed in a stairwell. Photo on the right: design example of a SÄLZER facade with flush-mounted door and panel fillings.

The SÄLZER facade also fulfils all demanded building

physical characteristics, such as water tightness, re-

sistance against wind load, air permeability. The tests

were carried out in accordance with the product standard

DIN EN 13830. Sound insulation was successful tested

as well as the mechanical durability of operable incorpo-

rated windows and doors.

The thermal insulation is tested in accordance with EN

ISO 10077-2. The facade offers, dependent on the seg-

mentation, glazing and security levels, a heat transfer

coeffizient Ucw up to 1.6 W/m2K.

The static value of the facade can be increased by inser-

tation of aluminium or steel profiles.

Facts of the Building Physics

The double facade is ventilated by ventilating valves, which are incorporated between the inner and exterior facade on the top/attica and in the base. These are controlled electronically by temperature sensors. Accessible grillage between the two facades can be used for cleaning.

Service: everything

from a single source.

Modular Design

Sun protection can be integrated in different design variations.

The modularity and versatile compatibility of the

SÄLZER products provide the basis for the individual

design of the facade.

Tested Systems SÄLZER offers a gapless security concept "completely

rounded". All tested and certified products in the

SYSTEM SÄLZER® can flexibly be integrated in the

same resistance class of the facade. The integration of

tilt-turn windows - which are forced entry and blast re-

sistant in the tilted window position, also available for

inclusion are both swing and sliding doors.

Design | Surfaces Finishes The varied SÄLZER product range offers almost unlim-

ited possibilities for designers and architects alike. Dif-

fering profile depths, cover sheets, profiles and top pan-

els made of metal, wood or stone in different colours

allow varied appearance. Thereby ensuring the compati-

bility of the products a high degree of reliability and ser-

viceability.

Doors can be integrated in the same resistance class as the facade like the installa-tion of windows in different variations.

6

Skylights in many Varieties and Secu-rity Levels SÄLZER skylights are designed according to the custom-

er requirement against forced entry, ballistic and / or

blast attacks. They can be manufactured as pent roof,

gabled roof or ditch roof.

A maximum light efficiency can be achieved by light scat-

tering glazing.

SÄLZER facades and skylights were tested in open range

tests and were classified in the GSA Level 2 (no splin-

ters). During an explosion no dangerous splinters

flew from the skylight at the roof into the room interior.

Certified Variety

Glazing | Panel Inserts Security glazing offers the same design variations as non

secured glazing e.g. mirrored, coloured, opaque or orna-

mental glasses. Panels in various materials, sizes and

forms can be incorporated. Different thicknesses of glaz-

ing and panels can be installed.

Therefore the facade can be designed according to the

individual needs.

Window Single and multiple window elements are available with

turn, tilt or tilt-turn window hardware, french casement

window, optionally with electronic control.

Doors Single and double door, sliding elements, with top and

side lights, with transom, panels in glass or other materi-

als, outward and inward opening, interlocking door with

special control system and available as escape door with

hardware according to DIN EN 179 or DIN EN 1125.

Protecting Lives and Property. Worldwide.

According to the European Standard DIN 1522 + 1523

the resistance against shelling is divided into 7 classes:

FB1 up to FB7-NS.

In each class, the test specimen is shelled with another

weapon, calibres, bullet velocities and types and in differ-

ent distances.

In the highest security level FB7, the product is shot with

a rifle/calibre 7,62 x 51mm hard core, at defined points

by the European test standard or at weak points chosen

by the examinator of the test institute.

Among other point the SÄLZER facade was shelled at

various facade connections such as:

glass- or panel elements

connection to the wall

window and door frames

corner constructions.

Reliable protection can only be afforded by a co-

ordinated approach to using a fully tested system with

further emphasis on the design, manufacture and instal-

lation of each project.

As usual at SÄLZER the facades were tested and certi-

fied by independent institutes according to European

standards or according to individual customer require-

ments against forced entry, ballistic and blast attacks.

up to the highest class FB7-NS

No Compromise

Example of test certificates for blast, bullet and forced entry resistance.

Bullet Resistance

SÄLZER facade after the ballistic test in the highest class FB7-NS. The add-on ‚NS‘ means ‚No Splinters‘: by shelling no splinters from the whole construction fly inside the room. In case of emergency, no one would be injured by flying frag-ments.

Pressure: 357.5 kPa (3.575 bar) GSA Level 2. The larger the area which the explosion acts, the higher the load on the facade.

Forced Entry Resistance

Material may react differently under extreme loads than

calculated. Because of this fact SÄLZER tested the

facade consistently in open range tests in real conditions.

We tested a variety of:

facade constructions such as single and multiple fa-

cades

different wall connections

integrated elements: windows, doors, panel fillings in

different designs

various charges such as 100, 200, 500 kg

charges blasted in different stand-offs such as 15 m

up to a pressure of 357,5 kPA (3.575 bar)

SÄLZER recommends only the use of fully tested facade

constructions. Partial solutions, such as the attachment

of foils at the glazing on unsecured facade construction

offers no real protection. During an explosion pressure of

hundreds of tons affect on the facade, therefore the

whole facade have to be constructed blast resistant. This

includes e.g. profiles, glazing, class inset and wall con-

nection. The correct installation is also very important.

Due the outstanding test results obtained SÄLZER fa-

cades are classified according to GSA-TSO1-2003 in

GSA-Level 2 (no splinters). In the event of an emer-

gency, no splinters fly into the room and injure humans or

valued possessions.

PfB Rosenheim: certified quality control for forced entry resistant windows, facades and doors by PfB test institute.

In addition to the material loss, a burglary is always an

invasion in the privacy. This could cause psychological

distress and the sense of security could be lost. With the

tested and certified facades from SÄLZER you always

“are on the safe side“.

They were tested according to the European Standard

1627-1630 up to resistance class RC5. In this resistant

level the facade was tested with massive tools such as

an axe, crowbar, hammer and power tools (drill and an-

gle grinder). It is necessary that the glazing is attacked

using the same tools as the rest of the facade compo-

nents.

Additionally all SÄLZER forced entry resistance compo-

nents are quality controlled by an independent institute

and are recommended by the Police Crime Prevention

Commission of Germany.
