UL 1034-2000 UL Standard for Safety Burglary-Resistant Electric Locking Mechanisms Fifth Edition; Reprinted with Revisions Through and Including April 29, 2004
1.1 These requirements apply to the construction, performance, and operation of burglary-resistant
electric locking mechanisms and their related devices, such as control units, control switches, and power
supplies, and the like used to secure and rele ase doors.
1.2 A burglary-resistant electric locking mechanism shall be rated according to the three elements used
to determine its maximum effectiveness:
a) Static strength rating of 500 pounds-force (2224 N), 1000 pounds-force (4448 N), or 1500
pounds-force (6673 N). See 54.2.1.
b) Dynamic strength rating of 33 foot-pounds-force (45 J), 50 foot-pounds-force (68 J), or 70
foot-pounds-force (95 J). See 54.3.1.
c) Endurance rating of 100,000 or 250,000 cycles. See 37.2.1.
A burglary-resistant electric locking mechanism shall be rated with its maximum static strength, dynamic
strength, and endurance.
1.3 A burglary-resistant electric locking mechanism is intended to be used in conjunction with an access
control system or a manual-release mechanism. A burglary-resistant electric locking mechanism shall be
constructed so that it either does not interfere with egress through the door or other opening cover that it
is used to control, or its locking action shall be capable of being released as required by the authority
having jurisdiction if an emergency egress is required.
1.4 These requirements do not pertain to the fire-retardant classification of a door and releasing-device
assembly.
1.5 The term ?product? as used in this standard refers to all types of burglary-resistant electric locking
mechanisms.
1.6 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different
from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that involves a risk of fire or of electric shock
or injury to persons shall be evaluated using appropriate additional component and end-product
requirements to maintain the level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A
product whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conflict with specific
requirements or provisions of this standard does not comply with this standard. Revision of requirements
shall be proposed and adopted in conformance with the methods employed for development, revision, and
implementation of this standard.
