Building hardware - Requirements and test methods for windows and doors height windows - Part 1: Requirements common to all types of hardware

This European Standard specifies performance requirements for the strength and durability of hardware for the operation of movable sashes of windows and balcony doors including requirements and test methods common to all hardware.
This European Standard is applicable to the hardware suitable for windows and balcony doors in Table 1, whatever the material used for the construction of the window.
Table 1 — Window opening-types
This European Standard does not apply to the following:
Fusible links, hardware for lifting side-hung windows, hardware for windows that remain parallel to their own plane and move perpendicular to it on pantograph type gear, fixing devices that are used to assemble or install a fixed window, devices that are used for the permanent fixing of a complete window into a building structure, mechanisms for the pneumatic or hydraulic remote operation of windows; also single axis hinges (other than those, which provide a pivot-function for windows) and dead bolts suitable for both door and window sashes, as covered in EN 1935 and EN 12051 respectively.
Should fire/smoke classifications be required, reference should be made to the respective standards mentioned in 5.5.
Should burglar resistance classifications be required, reference should be made to ENV 1627, ENV 1628, ENV 1629 and ENV 1630.

Foreword
This European Standard (EN 13126-1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors,
windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by August 2006.
This European Standard supersedes CEN/TS 13126-1:2004.
A full contribution to the preparation of this European Standard has been made by the European
manufacturers’ organization "ARGE" and national standards bodies.
This European Standard is one of a series of European Standards dedicated to building hardware products. It
is divided into seventeen parts, the first part being common to the parts 2 until 17, incorporating all types of
hardware for windows and balcony doors.
Informative Annex A lists the titles of all parts of this European Standard and refers to their different window
opening-type applications.
Where appropriate additional normative and informative annexes are included in the respective part.
The performance tests incorporated in this European Standard are considered to be reproducible and as such
will provide a consistent and objective assessment of the performance of these products throughout CEN
Member States.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Introduction
EN 13126 is a multipart product standard which enables the testing of hardware components or sets. The
components or sets are tested on a standard test frame independently of the windows to which they should be
fitted. The standard test frame is intended to eliminate any test-result inconsistencies that may arise through
the variability between different constructions of windows.
Throughout this European Standard all references to windows means both windows and balcony doors where
appropriate.
This European Standard applies only to hardware that connects a movable sash to its fixed frame or controls
the opening and closing of the movable sash. It does not take fixing devices into account that are used to
assemble or install a fixed window or permanently fix a complete window into a building structure.
Where possible, test methods have been unified to accommodate a wide range of window opening-types and
hardware. In particular the following are unified for movable sashes:
a) size of sash;
b) mass of sash;
c) frequency and total number of test cycles;
d) range of operations during each test cycle.
This European Standard excludes hardware for use on both doors and windows (single axis hinges and door
bolts) because requirements for these products are specified in other standards.
NOTE The single complete standard consists of the combination of part 1 together with one of parts 2 to 17.
