Overview

EN 13126-14:2022 - part of the CEN series for building hardware - specifies requirements and test methods for sash fasteners used on windows and door-height windows. Approved December 2021 and published as the 2022 edition, it supersedes EN 13126-14:2012 and is independent from EN 13126-1. The standard ensures consistent, reproducible evaluation of durability, strength, security and function for sash fasteners (devices that secure sliding or hung sashes in the closed position).

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope: Requirements and tests for sash fasteners for horizontally and vertically sliding windows and door-height windows.
• Classification system: A four-box classification covering:
  • Box 1 - Durability (grades H1 = 5 000 cycles, H2 = 10 000 cycles, H3 = 20 000 cycles)
  • Box 2 - Mass (tested sash mass; grades from 010 = 10 kg upward in defined steps)
  • Box 3 - Corrosion resistance (grade based on tests referenced to EN 1670)
  • Box 4 - Test sizes (SW = sash width, SH = sash height; e.g. 600 SW x 1 200 SH)
• Test methods included or referenced:
  • Durability (cycling) tests to demonstrate continued operation
  • Static force tests: operating force, excessive horizontal force, excessive vertical force
  • Wear test and critical deformation test
  • Corrosion resistance testing (per EN 1670)
• Marking and documentation: Classification information must be shown alongside the EN 13126-14 reference; marking requirements aligned with the EN 13126 series.
• Safety and materials: Clause on dangerous substances - materials must not release hazardous substances beyond limits set by European material standards or national regulations.

Applications and practical value

• Ensures sash fasteners meet objective, repeatable performance criteria for:
  • Product design validation and quality control
  • Third‑party type testing and certification
  • Specification in tender documents and architectural schedules
  • Regulatory compliance and product marking for the European market
• Typical users: window and door hardware manufacturers, façade and window system suppliers, test laboratories, installers, specifiers, architects, building inspectors and procurement teams.

Who should use EN 13126-14:2022

• Manufacturers preparing test evidence for product claims (durability, load capacity, corrosion resistance)
• Test houses performing standardized sash fastener tests
• Specifiers and consultants writing performance requirements for windows/door-height windows
• Compliance and quality managers assessing hardware for commercial and residential projects

Related standards

• EN 1670 - Building hardware - Corrosion resistance - Requirements and test methods (referenced for corrosion tests)
• Other parts of EN 13126 series (e.g., EN 13126-1, -2, -4, -15) for related window and door hardware requirements
