This European Standard specifies requirements for single-axis hinges, of lift-off or fixed pin type, for use on access
windows and doors. Such windows and doors may or may not be fitted also with door closing devices. It includes
tests for static loads, shear strength and allowable wear during durability cycling for the following hinges:
a) mounted on the edge of the door leaf or window sash and opening in one direction only;
b) whose axis of rotation is within 30 mm of an edge of the movable element for a door leaf mass of up to 160 kg;
c) whose axis of rotation is within 30 mm of the edge for a window sash with a mass up to 60 kg.
This European Standard classifies hinges for four categories of use (see annex A) and also specifies the maximum
permissible torque arising from frictional resistance generated within the hinge during endurance testing.
Corrosion protection requirements are specified for those hinges which are not intended to be protected after fitting.
There are no restrictions on the materials or the methods of fabrication used providing the hinge conforms to the
requirements relevant to its application.
The suitability of single axis hinges for use on fire/smoke compartmentation door assemblies is determined by
performance tests conducted in addition to the performance tests required by this European Standard. Annex B
indicates additional requirements for these products.
This European Standard does not apply to hinges incorporating spring-assisted door-closing mechanisms. Door
closers incorporating door co-ordinator devices (with or without electrically powered hold-open devices) are
covered by EN 1158.
Although the fastenings used to fix hinges to window assemblies and door assemblies are not covered by this
European Standard, if the type of fastening to be used is supplied or specified by the manufacturer, such
fastenings are used for the tests.

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen für einachsige Aufschraubbänder oder Bänder mit festen Stiften zur Verwendung an Eingangstüren und Fenstern fest. Derartige Türen und Fenster können mit oder ohne Schließmittel ausgeführt sein. Erfasst werden die Prüfung bei statischer Belastung, die Scherfestigkeitsprüfung und die Prüfung des zulässigen Verschleißes bei einer Dauerbeanspruchung folgender Bauteile: a) Tür- und Fensterbänder, die am Tür- oder Fensterflügel angebracht sind und sich in nur eine Richtung öffnen, b) Tür- und Fensterbänder, deren Drehachse maximal 30 mm von der Längskante des beweglichen Bauteils entfernt liegt, für Türflügel mit Massen bis 160 kg, c) Tür- und Fensterbänder, deren Drehachse maximal 30 mm von der Längskante der Fensterbügel entfernt liegt, für Türflügel mit Massen bis 60 kg.
