DIN EN 12635:2009 Industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates - Installation and use (includes Amendment A1:2008); English version of DIN EN 12635:2009-02
1.1 General
This European Standard specifies the information to be provided by the door manufacturer and the components
manufacturer to ensure safe installation, operation, use (including maintenance and repair) of doors, gates and
barriers intended for installation in areas in the reach of persons, and for which the main intended uses are giving
safe access for goods and vehicles accompanied or driven by persons in industrial, commercial or residential
premises.
This European Standard also covers commercial doors such as rolling shutters and rolling grilles used in retail
premises which are mainly provided for the access of persons rather than vehicles or goods.
This European Standard applies to manually operated and power operated doors, to doors and components
intended to be installed by "non professional installers" and may also apply to the installation and use of upgrading
component(s).
The European Standard only applies to the doors and components manufactured after the date of publication.
1.2 Exclusions
This European Standard does not apply to doors that are intended for a different use than the one described in 1.1
such as:
lock gates and dock gates;
doors on lifts;
doors on vehicles;
doors mainly for the retention of animals;
theatre textile curtains;
railway barriers;
barriers used solely for vehicles.
This European Standard does not apply to machinery other than power operated doors.
This European Standard does not cover operation in environments where the electromagnetic disturbances are
outside the range of those specified in EN 61000-6-2 or for domestic garage doors those specified in EN 55014-2.
This European Standard does not cover:
- products to be used in potential explosive atmosphere or on armoured doors;
- programmable devices (see IEC 61508 series);
- shock resistance of component (example IK code).
These exclusions are based on technology used at the publication time of this standard.
When a door is part of the load carrying structure of the building, the load carrying function is not dealt with in this
European Standard.
