ASTM F3561-Tested Configurations

Kawneer’s Forced Entry Solutions delivers ASTM F3561-tested forced-entry resistance across coordinated storefront, entrance, and hardware systems. Designed for security-focused projects, it supports specification without compromising architectural performance, design flexibility, or aesthetics.

Applicable across education, healthcare, government, and other public-facing building types, this product portfolio was developed for projects where enhanced security must be integrated into complete entrance and storefront assemblies.
With validated configurations across framing, entrances, and hardware, this range provides a clearer path to specifying forced-entry resistance with greater confidence.
