This European Standard is applicable to alarm systems used for lifts manufactured and installed after the date of publication by CEN of this standard. However, this European Standard can be taken into account when applied to existing lifts.
EN 81 70 gives additional requirements for persons with disabilities (e.g. inductive loop, alarm button).

This document gives additional and deviating requirements to EN 81-20 as applicable in order to ensure the safety of lift users and the availability of lifts, which may be used for vandal resistant purposes. In all other respects such lifts are designed in accordance with EN 81-20. This document deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to lifts which can be affected by vandalism (as listed in Clause 4) when they are used under the conditions as foreseen by the installer.
It does not cover building security or Category 0 lifts (see definition 3.2).
For other types of lifts, e.g. inclined lifts according to EN 81-22, this standard can usefully be taken as a basis.

This European Standard specifies the special provisions and safety rules for passenger and goods passenger lifts where these lifts are permanently installed in buildings that are in compliance with EN 1998-1 (Eurocode 8).
This standard defines additional requirements to EN 81 1 and EN 81 2.
It applies to new passenger lifts and goods passenger lifts. However, it may be used as a basis to improve the safety of existing passenger and goods passenger lifts.
It does not apply to seismic lift category 0 as defined in Table A.1.
This European Standard does not address other risks due to seismic events (for example fire, flood, explosion).

This European standard applies to all types of passenger and passenger goods lifts, in particular those covered by the series of EN 81 standards, and may be applied to similar equipment where there is a risk of trapping users. This European standard defines the basic characteristics of an emergency alarm system required within a lift provided for the safety of all users.

This European Standard specifies the method of test for determining the fire resistance of lift landing doors which may be exposed to a fire from the landing side. The procedure applies to all types of lift landing doors used as a means of access to lifts in buildings and which are intended to provide a fire barrier to the spread of fire via the lift well. The procedure allows for the measurement of integrity and if required the measurement of radiation and thermal insulation. No requirements are included for mechanical conditioning as these are included in the relevant product standard.

This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for the safe and independent access and use of lifts by a wide range of persons, including persons with disabilities.
It is applicable to new passenger and goods passenger lifts according to EN 81-20. For other types of lifts, e.g. inclined lifts according to EN 81 22, this standard can usefully be taken as a basis.
NOTE 1   For guidance on solutions for increased accessibility and usability see Annex D.
NOTE 2   For the upgrading of accessibility of existing lifts in line with the recommendation of the European Commission dated 8th of June, 1995 (95/216/EC) concerning improvements to safety of existing lifts, see EN 81-82.

Amendment text approved as BT N 7100, Annex 2 (resolution BT C056/2004).

This European standard specifies the requirements for the accessibility of new lifts serving defined landing levels, having a car designed for the transportation of persons, and moving along guide rails inclined at an angle of more then 15degrees to the horizontal. NOTE: This standard may be used as guidance for upgrading existing lifts in line with the recommandation of the European Commission dated 8th of June, 1995 (95/216/EC) concerning improvements to safety of existing lifts. This European standard describes three sizes of lifts offering different levels of accessibility to wheelchair users.

This document gives additional and deviating requirements to EN 81-1 and EN 81-2 as applicable in order to ensure the safety of lift users and the availability of lifts, which may be used for vandal resistant purposes. In all other respects such lifts are designed in accordance with EN 81-1, including Amendment A2 or EN 81-2, including Amendment A2. This document deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to lifts which can be affected by vandalism (as listed in Clause 4) when they are used under the conditions as foreseen by the installer.
It does not cover building security or Category O lifts (see definition 3.2).

The procedure allows for the measurement of integrity and if required the measurement of radiation and thermal insulation. No requirements are included for mechanical conditioning as these are included in the relevant product standard.

This European Standard specifies the special provisions and safety rules to ensure the behaviour of lifts in the event of fire in a building, on the basis of a signal(s) from the fire alarm detection system to the lift(s) control system.
It applies to new passenger lifts and goods passenger lifts. However, it may be used as a basis to improve the safety of existing passenger and goods passenger lifts.
This standard gives various options for control of the lift in the event of a fire in a building.
This standard does not apply to:
3   lifts which remain in use in the event of fire e.g. firefighters' lifts as defined in EN 81-72:2003;
3   the use of lifts for the evacuation of a building and
3   a fire in the well.

This European Standard specifies the special provisions and safety rules describing the behaviour of lifts in the event of fire in a building, on the basis of a recall signal(s) to the lift(s) control system.
This European Standard applies to new passenger lifts and goods passenger lifts with all types of drives. However, it may be used as a basis to improve the safety of existing passenger and goods passenger lifts.
This European Standard does not apply to
-   lifts that remain in use in the event of fire e.g. firefighters lifts as defined in EN 81 72,
-   lifts used for the evacuation of a building.
