BS EN 1634-1:2014+A1:2018 PDF Download

BS EN 1634-1:2014+A1:2018 is a European standard that outlines the fire resistance and smoke control testing methods for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows, and elements of building hardware. The standard covers various types of door and shutter assemblies, including hinged doors, sliding doors, folding doors, tilting doors, rolling shutter doors, and openable windows.

The testing procedure specified in this standard is conducted in conjunction with EN 1363-1 and is used to determine the fire resistance of these assemblies when installed in vertical separating elements. The standard also mentions that the testing of fire dampers should be done in accordance with EN 1366-2, and the testing of closures for conveyor systems should adhere to EN 1366-7.

Additional information about individual elements of building hardware can be obtained upon prior agreement with the test sponsor to fulfill the performance criteria specified in EN 1634-2. The test results can be presented in a separate report that should conform to the requirements of EN 1634-2.

It is worth noting that doors that have been tested in accordance with this European Standard and classified in line with EN 13501-2 may be accepted for lift landing door applications as an alternative to EN 81-58, subject to national regulations. However, EN 81-58 is a specific test for lift landing doors, and its classification may not be suitable for other purposes defined in national regulations.
