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.
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.

mentioned in 5.5.
NOTE 2 Should burglar resistance classifications be required, reference should be made to ENV 1627, ENV 1628,
ENV 1629 and ENV 1630.
