Building hardware — Single–axis hinges — Requirements and test methods
Description
This European Standard specifies requirements for single-axis hinges, of lift-off or fixed pin type, for use on access windows and doors. Such windows and doors may or may not be fitted also with door closing devices. It includes
tests for static loads, shear strength and allowable wear during durability cycling for the following hinges:
a) mounted on the edge of the door leaf or window sash and opening in one direction only;
b) whose axis of rotation is within 30 mm of an edge of the movable element for a door leaf mass of up to 160 kg;
c) whose axis of rotation is within 30 mm of the edge for a window sash with a mass up to 60 kg.
This European Standard classifies hinges for four categories of use (see annex A) and also specifies the maximum permissible torque arising from frictional resistance generated within the hinge during endurance testing.
