BS EN 1634-1:2014+A1:2018

This standard BS EN 1634-1:2014+A1:2018 Fire resistance and smoke control tests for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows and elements of building hardware is classified in these ICS categories:

• 91.060.50 Doors and windows
• 13.220.50 Fire-resistance of building materials and elements

This European Standard specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of door and shutter assemblies and openable windows designed for installation within openings incorporated in vertical separating elements, such as:

1. hinged and pivoted doors;

2. horizontally sliding and vertically sliding doors including articulated sliding doors and sectional doors;

3. folding doors, sliding folding doors /shutters;

7. operable fabric curtains.

This European Standard is used in conjunction with EN 1363-1.

The testing of fire dampers is covered by EN 1366-2.

The testing of closures for conveyor systems is covered by EN 1366-7.

By prior agreement with the test sponsor, additional information may be gained for individual elements of building hardware in order to fulfil the performance criteria identified in EN 1634-2. Based on the observations recorded during the test, the results may be presented in a separate report which should be in accordance with the requirements of EN 1634-2.

Doors tested in accordance with this European Standard and classified in accordance with EN 13501-2 may be accepted for lift landing door applications as an alternative to EN 81-58 and subject to National Regulations. EN 81-58 represents a specific test for lift landing doors and results in an alternative classification which may not be suitable for some other purposes as defined in National Regulations.
