Whether is security rating, fire resistance, thermal transference or acoustic ratings, all our products are third-party tested to give you peace-of-mind that they perform how we say they do.
We make continual improvements to our product range in line with changing regulatory demands – for example, CE Marking. In addition, our research and development team regularly send doors for testing with independent bodies to gain certification.
These include Secured by Design (the official police initiative to ‘design out crime’), the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) and Warrington Fire. We’re are also part of the Door Hardware Federation (DHF) and the Guild of Architectural Ironmongers (GAI) – for more information about our memberships and accreditations, please click here.
We offer a broad range of security rated steel door solutions – these include SECUR-DOR (available with PAS 24 , STS202 BR3 and ENV 1627 Level 4 certifications as required), and TUFF-DOR (LPS 1175 certified to SR2, SR3 or SR4 levels).
Certified to PAS 24 and approved by Secured by Design, TUFF-VENT offers maximum free airflow whilst maintaining strength and security, whilst GLAS-DOR provides a fire rated fully glazed solution that’s also burglary-resistant (PAS 24 and RC3 and RC4 classes in accordance with standard ENV 1627).
We offer a broad range of certified fire resistant doors including our highly versatile INNA-DOR and OUTA-DOR products, which both offer up to 4 hours fire resistance if needed.
GLAS-DOR combines fire protection with other requirements such as acoustic reduction, ballistic resistance and security certification, and we can also provide OUTA-DOR Premio and Novofire® from Novoferm for even more choice and flexibility.
We have had third party testing carried out to certify that our fire exit doors, when fitted with panic exit devices, meet the criteria for panic devices according to the requirements of BS EN 179:1998 and BS EN 1125:1997.

Robust SD4 Security Doors have been tested to and passed EXR2 and EXR3 of the BS EN 13124-2:2004 (Explosion Resistance) standard.
Robust acoustic doors have been tested to and passed BS EN ISO 140-3:1995.
The performance of our acoustic doors is described as the ‘Sound Reduction Index,’ and is shown as a figure in dB (decibels). It is a weighted average over a range of frequencies prescribed in the BS EN ISO 140-3:1995 standard.
| Type | dB | Performance | Description |
| OUTA-DOR (Honeycomb core) | 23 | Minimal | Speech clearly audible |
| OUTA-DOR (Mineral wool core) | 33 | Average | Normal speech understood |
| AC35 ** | 35 | Good | Loud speech audible but not intelligible |
| AC45 ** | 45 | Very Good | Loud speech just detectable |
| AC50 ** | 50 | Excellent | Loud speech barely audible |

Our doors have recently undergone cycle testing to enable the doorset to be CE marked in accordance with UK legislation. Robust UK are one of the first manufacturers in the UK able to fully CE mark our doorsets in accordance with BS EN 14351-1:2006 Windows & Pedestrian Doorsets (External).
The opening and closing cycles of our doors have been tested to and passed Class 7 (500,000 cycles) of BS EN 1191:2000.
Our doors have undergone testing to prove their suitability for use for expected UK weather conditions to BS 6375-1: 2004 Weather Tightness, which incorporates specific tests for:
| Air Permeability to: | BS EN 1026:2000 |
| Water Tightness to: | BS EN 1027:2000 |
| Resistance to Wind Loading to: | BS EN 12211:2000 |
In line with current industry standards, we have had our doors tested as an installed product to BS EN ISO 10077-2: 2003 (calculations for thermal transmission of window framing members), and we are also able to offer a cross-section material calculation rate.
In order to continue to provide quality products, we ensure that, where available, the hardware we use is regularly tested to the relevant European standards, in particular:
| Hinges to: | BS EN 1935:2002 |
| Cylinders to: | BS EN 1303:2005 |
| Door Closers to: | BS EN 1154:1997 |
| Locks and Latches to: | BS EN 12209:2003 |
| Lever Furniture to: | BS EN 1906:2002 |
Robust are leading the field in our ability to provide full CE marking for our full range of steel doors in accordance with BS EN 14351-1:2006 Windows & Pedestrian Doorsets (External). This legislation requires that manufacturers of non-fire industrial doors apply the CE mark on their products because they are covered by a harmonised standard under the new Construction Products Regulation.
From the 1st November 2019 it became mandatory for external fire-rated doorsets to be CE marked to BS EN 14351-1 AND EN 16034. EN 16034 involves tests for external doorsets with fire resistance and/or smoke control characteristics and cannot be used on its own for CE marking purposes. It must be used in conjunction with BS EN 14351-1 and its performance declared on the DoP and CE label we attach to our doorsets.
