This document establishes the basis for testing and classifying secure safe cabinets.
The standard covers products meant for purposes where the security resistance required is less than that measured by EN 1143-1. Normally these products are used in lower risk situations.

Overview
EN 14450:2017/prA1 (CEN) - Secure storage units - Requirements, classification and methods of test for resistance to burglary - Secure cabinets.
This European standard defines test methods and classification criteria for secure cabinets intended for lower-risk applications (security resistance below EN 1143-1). The amendment (prA1) updates terminology from “secure safe cabinets” to secure cabinets, integrates distributed system locks (EN 17646), and revises permitted cable holes and related requirements.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and definitions
- Defines a secure cabinet as a storage unit protecting contents against burglary, with at least one internal side ≤ 1 m and access via a lockable door or lid.
- Covers free‑standing, wall and floor cabinets and how installation affects protection.
- Classification
- Two classes: S1 and S2 with quantified resistance limits (e.g., minimum resistance for access: 2.00 SU for S1, 5.00 SU for S2).
- Tool and time allowances expressed as tool points (e.g., 40 TP for S1, 60 TP for S2).
- Locking and anchoring
- Minimum locking: one lock complying with EN 1300 or EN 17646 (distributed systems).
- Anchoring strength requirements per anchoring hole (e.g., 20 kN for S1, 30 kN for S2).
- Perforations and cable entries
- Only permitted holes: locks, anchoring and cables.
- Up to four cable holes permitted; each ≤ 100 mm, located in the cabinet body (plus one in the door), and at least 200 mm apart.
- Testing procedures
- Includes test specimen requirements and methods such as tool attack procedure and marking/test documentation rules.
- Marking and documentation
- Product marking must include classification and lock class (EN 1300 or EN 17646) and be supported by technical documentation.
Applications
- Suitable for retail stores, small businesses, hotels, medical practices, pharmacies, offices, and data media storage where moderate burglary resistance is needed.
- Used by manufacturers designing secure cabinets, test laboratories performing conformity testing, specifiers and procurement teams, insurance assessors, and installers ensuring correct anchoring and compliance.
Related standards
- EN 17646 - Distributed systems: lock classification (integrated by prA1).
- EN 1300 - High-security locks: lock classification.
- EN 1143-1 - High-security safes and strongrooms (higher resistance benchmark; EN 14450 covers lower-resistance products).
EN 14450:2017/prA1 provides clear, measurable criteria for designers, testers and buyers to evaluate burglary resistance, making it a practical tool for specifying and certifying secure cabinets in lower-risk environments. Keywords: EN 14450:2017/FprA1, secure cabinets, secure storage units, burglary resistance, classification, EN 17646, EN 1300.
