What is difference between Secured by Design (SBD) and PAS 24?

The key difference between Secured by Design (SBD) and PAS 24 is their scope and purpose:
PAS 24:
  • A security performance standard for doors and windows.
  • Specifies testing requirements for resistance against forced entry, including impact, lock manipulation, and mechanical attacks.
  • Compliance with PAS 24 is required under Part Q of Building Regulations for new builds.
  • Windows and doors that pass PAS 24 testing are considered secure against common burglary methods.
  • Secured by Design (SBD):
  • A UK police initiative aimed at improving building security.
  • Requires windows and doors to be PAS 24-certified but also considers additional crime prevention measures, such as installation best practices and secure surrounding structures.
  • Recognises manufacturers that meet police-approved security standards with an SBD accreditation.
  • SBD-certified products go beyond PAS 24 by integrating additional security features recommended by law enforcement.
  • Summary:
  • PAS 24 = A test standard proving a window or door meets specific security criteria.
  • SBD = A police-backed certification requiring PAS 24 compliance plus additional security best practices.
  • If a product is Secured by Design-certified, it must be PAS 24-compliant, but not all PAS 24 products are SBD-certified.
