EN 1125 Building Equipment - Requirements for Panic Exit Devices Operated by a Horizontal Bar for Use on Escape Routes

The suitability of a panic exit device for use in fire/smoke resistant door assemblies is determined by fire performance tests performed in addition to the performance tests required by this European Standard.

This European Standard covers panic exit devices manufactured and placed on the market as a whole by a single manufacturer or manufactured by more than one manufacturer and then supplied to the market as a kit in a single operation.

This standard requires the following to be visible on the product when installed:

  • Manufacturer's name or trademark or other means of positive identification
  • Identification number of the certification body
  • CE mark symbol

Even with very large double-leaf doors, it only applies the slightest pressure on the touch bar in case of panic to open the entire door element safely and quickly. Even children, the elderly or the disabled will be able to open the door safely and quickly in case of danger. The door system closes automatically after the passage.
