Building hardware - Controlled door closing devices - Requirements and test methods
Please read the qualifying note at the end of the summary of the directive. This standard specifies requirements for controlled door closing devices for swing doors, such devices being mounted on or in the frame, on or in the door, or in the floor. The scope is limited to manually operated door closing devices where the energy for closing is generated by the user upon opening the door, such that when the door is released, it returns to a closed position, in a controlled manner. Devices such as spring hinges, which do not exert a checking control during door closing, are outside the scope of this standard. Door closing devices (door closers) manufactured in accordance with this standard are recommended for use wherever there is a requirement for reliable closing control of a door. Door closers for use on fire/smoke doors need additional attributes in order to contribute actively to meeting the essential safety requirements in case of fire, either independently or as part of a complete door assembly. These additional requirements for door closers for use on a fire/smoke door assembly are specified in normative annex A. Door closers incorporating electrically powered hold-open mechanisms, for use on fire/smoke door assemblies, are covered by prEN 1155.

Overview
EN 1154:1996 - "Building hardware - Controlled door closing devices - Requirements and test methods" is a European standard published by CEN that defines requirements and test methods for controlled door closing devices (door closers) used on swing doors. The standard covers closers mounted on or in the frame, on or in the door, or in the floor, and is limited to manually operated devices where the closing energy is supplied by the user when opening the door. It excludes devices (e.g., simple spring hinges) that do not provide checking control during closing. A qualifying note in the directive summary should be consulted for compliance context.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope of application: Controlled closing devices for swing doors - mounted in various positions (frame, door, floor).
- Manual operation requirement: Energy for closing is generated by the user upon opening; devices that do not control closing are excluded.
- Performance and safety: Sets out performance expectations and test methods to verify that door closers return doors to a closed position in a controlled manner.
- Fire/smoke door considerations: Door closers intended for use on fire or smoke doors require additional attributes to contribute to safety during a fire; these additional requirements are specified in normative Annex A.
- Limitations: Electrically powered hold‑open mechanisms for fire/smoke door assemblies are addressed separately (see prEN 1155).
- Testing emphasis: The standard includes methods to test the closing behaviour, durability and functionality of door closers (detailed test procedures are part of the standard text).
Applications
- Specification and selection of door closers in commercial, public and residential buildings where reliable closing control is required.
- Ensuring compliance for hardware used on escape routes, corridors, offices, and where doors must close reliably to maintain privacy, security or environmental separation (e.g., ventilation zones).
- Integrating door closers into fire/smoke door assemblies, subject to the additional requirements in Annex A, to support active fire safety measures.
Who Uses This Standard
- Manufacturers of door closers and building hardware (product design and conformity testing)
- Architects and specifiers selecting suitable closers for projects
- Installers and contractors implementing hardware to meet performance requirements
- Compliance officers and building safety engineers verifying that door closers meet regulatory and fire-safety obligations
- Product test laboratories performing conformity and performance testing
Related Standards
- prEN 1155 - covers electrically powered hold‑open mechanisms for fire/smoke door assemblies.
- Normative Annex A in EN 1154 - additional requirements for door closers used on fire/smoke doors.

The article discusses the requirements and test methods for controlled door closing devices according to the EN 1154:1996 standard. This standard applies to swing doors and specifies that the devices should be mounted on or in the frame, door, or floor. It specifically focuses on manually operated door closing devices where the user generates the energy for closing by opening the door. The devices should ensure that the door returns to a closed position in a controlled manner after it is released. Spring hinges, which do not provide checking control during door closing, are not considered in this standard. Door closers manufactured according to this standard are recommended for reliable closing control of doors. However, door closers for fire/smoke doors require additional attributes to meet safety requirements in case of fire, either independently or as part of a complete door assembly. These additional requirements are specified in normative annex A. Door closers with electrically powered hold-open mechanisms for fire/smoke door assemblies are covered by prEN 1155.

The article is about the EN 1154:1996 standard, which sets out the requirements and test methods for controlled door closing devices. These devices are used on swing doors and can be mounted on the frame, door, or floor. The standard applies to manually operated door closing devices where the energy for closing is generated by the user when opening the door. These devices ensure that the door returns to a closed position in a controlled manner. Spring hinges, which don't provide checking control during door closing, are not covered by this standard. Door closers manufactured according to this standard are recommended for use in locations where reliable closing control of a door is needed. However, if the door closer is intended to be used on fire/smoke doors, additional attributes are required. These additional requirements are specified in a separate annex called normative annex A. Door closers with electrically powered hold-open mechanisms for fire/smoke door assemblies are covered by a different standard, prEN 1155.

The standard focuses on manually operated door closers where the energy for closing is generated by the user upon opening the door. It does not include devices like spring hinges that do not have checking control during door closing. Door closers made according to this standard are recommended for use in any situation requiring reliable closing control of a door. For fire/smoke doors, additional requirements are necessary for the door closers to effectively meet safety requirements during a fire, either independently or as part of a complete door assembly. These additional requirements are specified in a normative annex. Door closers with electrically powered hold-open mechanisms for fire/smoke doors are covered by prEN 1155.
