The doors are now a safety barrier. They are building elements that protect people against environmental events, provide comfort and safety and are equipped with the latest technology in terms of insulation. However, with greater demands in recent years, the doors are expected to fulfill new functions. New standards are being established in this regard.
It is important to ensure that the doors comply with the principles of the Construction Products Directive 305 / 2011 / EU published in the European Union and that they are manufactured in accordance with the relevant standards. In this parallel, windows and doors are among the construction materials with CE marking.
The main tests performed in advanced laboratories are: use safety tests, heat and sound insulation value tests, durability tests, fire safety tests, security theft tests and lead and explosion impact tests.
The EN14351-1 standard, which applies to windows and doors, is important in the CE marking system and defines product standards and performance characteristics. However, this standard does not evaluate the structural characteristics of products, but is for material-independent performance evaluation. Therefore, other standards are needed in the tests.
The following are a few standards that are based on door tests performed by the competent authorities:
TS EN 14351-1 Windows and doors - Product standard, performance characteristics - Part 1: Ready-made exterior doors for windows and pedestrian passage
TS EN 1634-1 Fire resistance and smoke control tests for doors and rolling shutters, windows and elements of building hardware - Part 1: Fire resistance test for doors and rolling shutters and opening windows
TS EN 16034 Pedestrian door sets, industrial, commercial, garage doors and opening windows - Product standard, performance and characteristics - Fire resistance and / or smoke control features
TS EN 13501-1 Construction products and building elements, fire classification - Part 1: Classification using data from behavior tests against fire
The application is received, the contract and then the product, vehicle and vehicles for which, what kind of service is determined exactly.
The necessary laboratory environment is prepared and the products, tools and instruments requested by the organization are tested by experts with the reference of the existing standards and measurements are made.
The data obtained as a result of meticulously completed tests, measurements and analyzes are evaluated and accredited approved reports are submitted by expert engineers.
