1 Scope
This document specifies requirements for the design manual system sliding doors, sliding corner doors
and folding doors of the bi-fold type and multi-panel folding doors but excluding doors and panels. Cycle
tests, static load, initial friction and corrosion resistance tests are included for fittings and track only.
This document covers door gear for all industrial, commercial and residential sliding doors and folding
doors.
This document does not cover the rollers for horizontal sliding and building hardware for inward or
outward sliding folding windows (types N Q, R and S) in accordance with EN 13126-15, building
hardware for Lift and Slide windows (type P) in accordance with EN 13126-16 and building hardware
for Tilt and Slide windows (type T) in accordance with EN 13126-17.
