EN 1634-1 Door and Shutter Assemblies, Openable Windows and Elements of Building Hardware - Part 1: Fire Resistance Test

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 1634-1 standard. Standard EN 1634-1 specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of door and shutter assemblies and openable windows designed to be installed in openings joined by vertical separators.

The EN 1634-1 fire resistance standard covers:

• Hinged and revolving doors;
• Horizontal sliding and vertical sliding doors, including articulated sliding doors and sectional doors;
• Folding doors, sliding folding doors/louvers;
• knocking down doors;
• Rolling shutters;
• Openable windows;
• Operable fabric curtains.

This European Standard is used in conjunction with EN 1363-1. Testing of fire dampers is within the scope of EN 1366-2. Testing of covers for conveyor systems is covered by EN 1366-7.

In prior agreement with the test sponsor, additional information may be obtained for individual elements of building equipment to meet the performance criteria defined in EN 1634-2. Based on the observations recorded during testing, the results can be presented in a separate report, which must comply with the requirements of EN 1634-2.

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