Fire-resistance tests - Door and shutter assemblies

2Scope / Description

This International Standard, used in conjunction with ISO 834-1, specifies a method for determining the fire
resistance of door and shutter assemblies designed primarily for installation within openings incorporated in
vertical separating elements, such as
hinged and pivoted doors,
horizontally sliding and vertically sliding doors, including articulated sliding doors and sectional doors,
steel single-skin folding shutters (un-insulated),
other sliding, folding doors,
tilting doors,
rolling shutter doors,
removable panels in walls.
This method can also be used to determine the fire resistance of non-loadbearing horizontal doors by analogy.
However, these are not specifically addressed here and the field of direct application given in Clause 13 is not
valid for horizontally oriented doors.
No requirements are included for mechanical conditioning, e.g. “shakedown” or durability as these are
included in the relevant product standard or for smoke leakage testing of doors and shutters; for the latter, see
ISO 5925-1.
