scope:
This European Standard applies to all vertically hinged or pivoted doors. The standard specifies the method to be used to determine the permanent deformation caused when a vertical load is applied to an open door leaf fixed in its own frame as part of a doorset. NOTE: Such downward forces that might reasonably be expected, such as a child swinging on the handle, should neither damage, nor impair the performance of, a door. The method may also be used in respect of a door leaf submitted for test in a frame which the manufacturer considers appropriate to and typical for the intended utilisation.
