ᐅ Did you have RC2 windows installed?

Hello,

we are currently looking into the windows for our planned house. The police recommend installing RC2-rated windows for security, but these seem to be quite expensive. Have you installed such windows, and what additional costs should one expect for a window or patio door? For example, if only the patio door is made with RC2 security, will the glass panes look different compared to the other windows? How did you handle this?

Best regards
Sabine

Additional cost on what; for 53 EUR you only get a lockable olive.

Not based on any specific standard for RC2. However, I believe the manufacturer already includes more mushroom head fasteners, etc., as part of the standard, so the additional cost might be lower for that reason.

Correct, for RC 2 it is P4A (or A3), but for RC 2n it is just "standard glass".
