Specifies general design criteria, performance requirements, and procedures for testing mechanical locksets and latchsets for their resistance to forced entry and efficiency under conditions of light to heavy usage. This Standard covers locksets for typical doorways in residential and business premises. Requirements for both the lock and associated furniture are included. This Standard is intended for use when assessing the security and durability of a lockset.

This Standard specifies general design criteria, performance requirements, and procedures for testing mechanical locksets and latchsets for their resistance to forced entry and efficiency under conditions of light to heavy usage. This Standard covers locksets for typical doorways, such as wooden, glass or metal-hinged swinging doors or sliding doors in residential and business premises, including public buildings, warehouses and factories. Requirements for both the lock and associated furniture are included. Certain areas may require higher level locking devices not referred to in this Standard (e.g. locking bars, electronic locking devices, detection devices, alarms). The definition, specification and testing of these devices is beyond the scope of this Standard.The Standard also includes performance requirements for cylinders supplied separately for installation in locksets.
