Custom Security Doors

We manufacture custom security doors compliant with SCEC standards.

The SCEC (Security Construction and Equipment Committee) is responsible for the evaluation of security equipment used by Australian Government departments and agencies. Because door security is paramount in high security environments, products used in Australian Government buildings, such as doors and frames, must be manufactured to the highest level of security and quality. Importantly, solid timber or flush panel block board core doors can be used for all security zones.

The SCEC uses a ‘SEEPL’ (Security Equipment Evaluated Products List), which lists all of the products and equipment that are approved for use in high security environments. This list is categorised into levels that outline where the approved products can be used.

SL1 (Security Level 1) – for low threat areas
SL2 – for medium-low threat areas
SL3 – products that are approved for medium threat levels
SL4 – high threat level areas

SCEC Frame Requirements

The following are requirements for a door frame to be SCEC compliant:

Door frames must be fabricated from cold-formed steel and have a minimum thickness of 1.6mm
Door frames must be permanently fixed, flush to the adjoining wall studs
Door frame hinges must be screw fixed to the frames with a minimum of four (4) hinges per door

SCEC Door Requirements

The following are requirements for a door to be SCEC compliant (Zones 3 to 5):

The door must have a minimum thickness of 45mm – this thickness applies to door types such as secure fire doors or acoustic doors
The block board core centre of the door must have a minimum thickness of 35mm – timber, plywood or cross branded LVL blocks are applicable
Green timber doors must not be used – the SCEC recommends seasoned hardwood doors
