1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for the manufacture, performance and testing of panic exit devices mechanically operated by either a horizontal push-bar or a horizontal touch-bar, specifically designed for use in a panic situation on escape routes. The suitability of a panic exit device for use on fire/smoke resisting door assemblies is determined by fire performance tests conducted in addition to the performance tests required by this European Standard. Annex B indicates additional requirements for these products. This European Standard covers panic exit devices which are either manufactured and placed on the market in their entirety by one producer or produced by more than one producer and subsequently placed on the market as a kit in a single transaction. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 179, Building hardware - Emergency exit devices operated by a lever handle or push pad - Requirements and test methods EN 1634-1, Fire resistance and smoke control tests for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows and elements of building hardware - Part 1: Fire resistance test for doors and shutter assemblies and openable windows

NOTE For example, a spring loaded latch bolt or an automatically thrown bolt head.
3.11 outside face of the door opposite to the face on which the bar for operating the panic exit device is situated 3.12 outside access device optional part of a panic exit device for opening an exit device from the outside NOTE An outside access device can be supplied with optional re-entry function. 3.13 bar horizontal part of a panic exit device which, when pushed, will operate the mechanism 3.14 double doorset assembly consisting of two hinged or pivoted leaves within a single frame NOTE 1 The meeting stiles can be either plain or rebated. NOTE 2 A double doorset where only one leaf is equipped with a panic exit device is considered to be a single panic exit doorset. NOTE 3 A double doorset where the first opening leaf is equipped with a panic exit device conforming to EN 1125 and the second opening leaf is equipped with an emergency exit device conforming to EN 179 is considered to be a double emergency exit doorset, or a single panic exit door.
exit device conforming to EN 1125 intended to give safe and effective escape through a doorway with minimum effort and without prior knowledge of the panic exit device allowing safe escape even in the event of the door being under pressure such as by people being pushed against the door in the direction of escape NOTE 1 A panic exit device contains bolt head(s) that engage(s) with a keeper(s) in the surrounding door frame and/or floor for securing a door when closed. The bolt head(s) can be released by the bar positioned horizontally across the inside face of the door when it is moved anywhere along its effective length in the direction of travel and/or in an arc downwards.
NOTE 2 Panic exit devices are intended for use where panic situations can arise. In a panic situation, a group of people will react differently from an individual. When two or more people are rushing to an escape door, probably in darkness and/or smoke, it is possible that the first one to reach the door will not necessarily operate the panic exit device, but can push the surface of the door (door under pressure) while other people will be trying to operate the horizontal bar by hand or body pressure. NOTE 3 When a door opens in the direction of exit, a panic exit device can be used instead of an emergency exit device subject to local regulations.
Figure 2 — Panic exit device with type A bar operation (push-bar)
Figure 3— Panic exit device with type B bar operation (touch-bar) 3.19 emergency exit device exit device conforming to EN 179, intended for emergency purposes where panic situations are not likely to arise, to give safe and effective escape through a doorway with one single operation to release the emergency exit device, although this can require prior knowledge of its operation NOTE 1 An emergency exit device contains bolt head(s) that engage(s) with a keeper(s) in the surrounding door frame and/or floor for securing a door when closed. The bolt head(s) can be released by the lever handle or the push pad positioned on the inside face of the door.
NOTE 2 Exit devices conforming to EN 179 are intended for emergency purposes where panic situations are not likely to arise. Where a pressure against the door caused by people in a panic is foreseen, then a panic exit device conforming to EN 1125 should be used. NOTE 3 Emergency exit devices are suitable also for inwardly opening single leaf exit doors, where local building regulations allow.
3.20 double doorset panic exit device panic exit device designed for use on the leaves of double doorsets, such that the operation of either horizontal bar will release at least the door leaf to which it is fitted 3.21 deadbolt part of a panic exit device that can be deadlocked manually by key or automatically and which is released when the exit device is operated NOTE A panic exit device can be designed to incorporate additional deadbolt(s) thrown by a key or thumbturn, used only at certain periods of time for additional security. 3.22 exit door door on an escape route equipped with an exit device conforming to EN 179 and/or EN 1125 3.23 effective length of bar length of the bar (dimension X) including any member to which the bar is fixed and which will itself yield to hand or body pressure thereby causing the panic exit device mechanism to operate (See Figure 4)

4.1.2 Release function A panic exit device shall be designed to release a door at all times from the inside in less than 1 s, when the horizontal bar positioned horizontally across the inside of the door is operated by hand or body pressure in one continuous movement in the direction of exit and/or in an arc downwards, anywhere along its effective length and not requiring the use of a key or other similar object. It shall be designed to release the door without any delay from the time the horizontal bar is operated to the released position of the mechanism.
The operation of the horizontal bar shall enable immediate exit from the inside at all times regardless of any auxiliary locking and/or unlocking means being incorporated, such as a deadbolt or outside access device. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection, functional tests and/or measurements. 4.1.3 Panic exit device mounting A panic exit device, with the exception of the horizontal bar, shall be designed to be mounted either on the inside face of, or within, a door.
Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection. 4.1.4 Corrosion resistance The corrosion resistance shall comply with 4.2.9 or be at least grade 3 in accordance with EN 1670:2007, 5.6. 4.1.5 Exposed edges and corners A panic exit device shall have all edges and exposed corners, that are likely to cause injury to persons using the exit, rounded to a radius of not less than 0,5 mm. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements. 4.1.6 Temperature range Materials selected in the design of a panic exit device shall be suitable for the operation of the panic exit device between temperatures of -10 °C and +60 °C. This requirement shall be verified by the test specified in 6.2.2. The maximum operating force at -10 °C and at +60 °C shall not exceed 50 % in excess of the operating forces measured at 20 °C.
4.1.7 Double doorset The design of a panic exit device intended for use on double doorset leaves shall allow both leaves to be opened simultaneously and to swing freely in the direction of exit once the door has been released.
YXZ YXZ Type A panic exit device Type B panic exit device Key Z is the distance from door stop X is the effective length of horizontal bar Y is the effective width of door opening Figure 4 — Type A and type B panic exit devices 4.1.10 Bar length The design of a panic exit device shall be such that the effective length (dimension X) of the horizontal bar shall be as near as possible to the effective width (dimension Y) of the door opening for which it is recommended, but never less than 60 %. See Figure 4. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements. 4.1.11 Bar projection No part of a panic exit device, when the door is in any position, shall project (dimension W) from the face of the door more than: a) category 1: projection up to 150 mm (large projection); b) category 2: projection up to 100 mm (standard projection). NOTE 1 See Figure 5 for illustration of dimension W (projection). NOTE 2 Categories 1 and 2 apply to both type A and B operation.
Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements.
Figure 5 — Overall projection from door face 4.1.12 Bar end The operating bar of a panic exit device shall not protrude beyond either of the end support brackets. In the case of a double doorset panic exit device, the requirement shall apply to each end of each bar. NOTE This is particularly important when the door is used for access as well as for egress. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection. 4.1.13 Operating bar face
For type A panic exit devices, when secured in position the vertical axis or height (dimension V) of the operating face of the push-bar shall be not less than 18 mm. See Figure 6. For type B panic exit devices, when secured in position the vertical axis or height (dimension V) of the operating face of the touch-bar shall be not less than 18 mm. Where the operational member is situated within the non-operational member, the height (dimension V) of the operating face of the touch-bar shall be at least 60 % of the overall height (dimension U) of the panic exit device measured anywhere within the effective length of the bar. When the touch-bar is fully depressed, the touch-bar face shall not protrude less than 3 mm (dimension T) beyond any non-operable member, and not be less than 25 mm (dimension S) from the face of the door. See Figure 7. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements. Key W is the maximum projection of active horizontal bar
To reduce the risk of trapping fingers and/or the blocking of the panic exit device, any gap shall not trap a test rod (of 10 mm diameter by 100 mm in length) by its 10 mm diameter in any position during the operation of the panic exit device. See Figure 8. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements.
Figure 8 — Example of test rod for type A panic exit devices 4.1.15 Door face gap
The gap between a horizontal bar and the door face or exit device support shall be not less than 25 mm (dimension R) at any position of bar travel to reduce the risk of trapped fingers. To allow for particular designs such as bracket supports, bushings, etc, the first 25 mm of each end of the bar length may have any such gaps reduced to 20 mm. See Figure 6. Where a type B panic exit device allows spacing between the operating bar and the door face, this spacing shall not be less than 25 mm when the touch-bar is fully depressed (same as dimension R for type A devices). Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements. 4.1.16 Accessible gap A panic exit device shall be designed such that the top surface of any operating element, touch-bar, chassis or other mounting assembly does not contain any accessible gap that could inadvertently be blocked by a foreign object, resulting in failure of the panic exit device to operate. A steel test piece of 10 mm x 15 mm x 20 mm placed in any accessible gap and in any orientation shall not prevent correct operation of the panic exit device. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements.
The design of a panic exit device can include a dogging mechanism or an automatic relatching device. If the exit device is equipped with a dogging mechanism or a device retaining the bolt(s) retracted, this shall not impede the free movement of the door once released.
An exit device shall be designed to avoid accidental release of the bottom bolt, preventing the free opening of the door.
Exit devices intended for use on smoke/fire resisting doors, shall comply with Annex B for additional requirements. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and functional tests carried before and also after durability test. 4.1.18 Top vertical bolt A panic exit device with top and bottom vertical rods shall include a mechanism to ensure that the releasing and/or the manipulation of the bottom vertical rod bolt head does not release the top vertical rod bolt head. This is verified by pushing the bottom bolt head up to its flush position with the bolt case.
Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and functional tests carried before and also after durability test. 4.1.19 Covers for vertical rods If covers are provided to surface fixed vertical rods to achieve abuse resistance, they shall have secure fixings and only be removable by means of a specific tool. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and functional tests, or (if not removable by a specific tool) the panic exit device shall meet the performance requirements of 4.2.6 with the covers removed. The design of a panic exit device may provide for guide(s) to retain the vertical rods. 4.1.20 Keepers
The design of a panic exit device shall include a keeper(s) for engaging the bolt head(s) when the panic exit device is in the secured position. Keepers shall provide protection for any part of the door or frame that could be damaged by the panic exit device during the opening and closing cycle of the door.
Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and functional tests carried before and also after the durability test. 4.1.21 Keepers dimensions The design of a floor keeper shall be such that dust and dirt can easily be removed with a conventional vacuum cleaner. If the keeper is not fitted flush, it shall not exceed 15 mm in height (dimension H) from the finished floor level and shall be chamfered in the direction of escape at an angle (M) not exceeding 45° from the horizontal, and any up stand (dimension P) shall not exceed 3 mm. See Figure 9.
Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and measurements.
Where periodic lubrication is required, it shall be possible to lubricate without dismantling the panic exit device. No additional lubrication shall be required before 20 000 cycles have been attained and at no less interval than 20 000 cycles thereafter. This requirement shall be verified in accordance with 6.3.4. 4.1.23 Door mass and dimensions The door mass and door dimensions shall be limited to the following for the purposes of a panic exit device tested on a test door in accordance with 5.2.2: maximum door mass: 100 kg or 200 kg
according to the classification;
maximum door height, excluding any rebates: up to a 20 % increase of the height of the test door (i.e. maximum increased height = 2 520 mm); maximum door width, excluding any rebates: up to a 20 % increase of the width of the test door (i.e. maximum increased width = 1 320 mm). Beyond these limits a panic exit device shall be additionally tested, in accordance with the following: 1) door mass over 200 kg: repeat the durability test in accordance with 6.3.4 and the final examination in accordance with 6.3.8, with the intended door mass; 2) door width over 1 320 mm: repeat the test in accordance with 6.3.2, the abuse resistance test of operating element in accordance with 6.3.5 and the final examination in accordance with 6.3.8 with the intended door width;
3) door height over 2 520 mm: repeat the release test in accordance with 6.3.2, the abuse resistance test of vertical rods in accordance with 6.3.6 and the final examination in accordance with 6.3.8. Either perform the test with the intended door height or perform the test on test doors 2 100 mm high but with weights added to the vertical rods to ensure that the vertical rods have the same mass that they would have on the door for which the device is specified. In this case the longest unsupported length of surface fixed vertical rod, at the midpoint of which the abuse force is applied, shall be not less than the one of the door for which the device is intended;
An outside access device that is not specified by the producer as designed to be compatible with a specific panic exit device shall not be considered to be in conformity with this document. When an outside access device is intended for use with a thumbturn cylinder, the size and any positioning of the thumbturn shall not interfere with the operation of the panic exit device from the inside. Where National Building Regulations accept direct connection of the exit device mechanism with the outside lever handle, which when being blocked at any position may render the exit device inoperable from the inside, this shall be clearly stated in the installation instructions, as in 4.3. Where an outside access device is intended for use with a cylinder, and a key left inside a cylinder at any position may render the panic exit device inoperable from the inside, then this shall be clearly stated in the installation instructions, as in 4.3 and Annex A.
Compliance is verified by a visual and mechanical examination, which shall include all the functions of the outside access device which have been declared by the producer of the panic exit device. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection and functional tests. The examination shall confirm that the release forces of the panic exit device are still within the limits of 6.3.2 with the outside access device installed.
4.1.25 Dangerous substances
Materials in products shall not contain or release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum levels specified in existing European material standards or any national regulations. Compliance shall be verified by visual inspection of documents supplied by the producer. 4.2 Performance requirements 4.2.1 General Panic exit devices shall be manufactured such that, when tested according to the specified test method, the performance of the panic exit device (or components) shall demonstrate conformity to the specific design requirements as specified in 4.1, and conformity to the requirements for product information as specified in 4.3, Annex A and Annex C. Panic exit devices shall demonstrate conformity to the characteristics according to Table 1.
A panic exit device whose performance is declared as compliant with this document shall conform to all the requirements of Table 1.
