Fire-rated door systems are a critical element of passive fire protection in commercial and public buildings. While much attention is often given to the fire rating of the door leaf itself, door hardware plays an equally vital role in ensuring fire performance. EN 1634 fire testing is the primary Eu

In commercial and public building projects, fire safety compliance is not a design option—it is a regulatory obligation. Among all passive fire protection elements, fire-rated door systems play a critical role in compartmentation, smoke control, and safe evacuation. However, a fire-rated door can on

Introduction: Fire Testing Is a Stress Test for Door HardwareIn fire-resisting door assemblies, hinges and locks are not passive components. During an EN 1634-1 fire resistance test, these components are subjected to extreme thermal, mechanical, and structural stresses that go far beyond normal serv

Introduction: Why EN 1935 Is the Core Standard for Hinges in EuropeIn European and CE-regulated markets, EN 1935 is the definitive performance standard for single-axis door hinges used on both fire-rated and non-fire-rated doors. Unlike generic product specifications, EN 1935 provides a quantified,

IntroductionIn the world of commercial buildings and facility management, life safety is a top priority. Fire doors play a vital role in isolating fire and smoke, allowing time for safe evacuation and emergency response. However, the reliability of even the strongest fire doors depends on the hardwa

In today's global market, the demand for high-quality door hardware that meets stringent safety and performance standards is more significant than ever. For factories, channel providers, and distributors, offering products that not only satisfy customer needs but also comply with international regulations is crucial. CE Door Hardware stands out as a benchmark for such requirements, symbolizing excellence in safety, durability, and design. This article delves into the features of CE Door Hardware, shedding light on why it is an indispensable choice for industry professionals.

Understanding the standard BS EN 1906:2012 Building hardware – Lever handles and knob furnitureWhat does the term “door furniture” mean?Door furniture is a term in general use meaning handles that operate the wide variety of locks and latches in today’s market place. The locks could be either mortis

This European standard applies to cylinders for such locks as are normally used in buildings and are designed to be used with cylinders. It identifies one category of use grade, three grades of durability, three grades of fire resistance, four grades of corrosion and temperature resistance, six grades of key security, and five grades of attack resistance.

BS EN 12209 classifies mechanically operated locks, latches and locking plates using an 11 digit coding system. This has proved necessary in order to provide a proper assessment of all the varied features of products for specific markets within Europe. It should be noted that to avoid a greater proliferation of boxes, certain features have been “doubled up”: e.g. durability and durability with side load; door mass and closing force; corrosion resistance and temperature resistance. The system is comprehensive but it has led to the use of letters (rather than numbers) in certain boxes, since there can only be one digit in each classification box. A similar classification system applies to all building hardware product standards (at least for the first 7 boxes) to aid meaningful comparisons with related products.

This standard provides details on product types, classification by use, test cycles, door mass, corrosion resistance, as well as definitions, product performance requirements, test apparatus, test methods and marking of products. In addition, the published standard includes annexes with details for special applications.

The device and its accessories must be chosen taking account of the type of user: • devices placed on the market after 1 July 2013 and intended for use by the general public must be CE Marked to BS EN 1125 – Panic exit devices operated by a horizontal bar, and preferably provided with additional product certification by an approved third party certification body. • devices placed on the market after 1 July 2013 for use by trained personnel must be CE Marked to BS EN 179 - Emergency exit devices operated by a lever handle or push-pad, and preferably provided with additional product certification by an approved third party certification body.
