DOORS, WINDOWS, SHUTTERS, BLINDS, GATES AND RELATED BUILDING HARDWARE (1/1)
1. Systems of attestation of conformity
For the produce(s) and intended use(s) listed below, CEN/Cenelec are requested to specify the following system(s) of attestation of conformity in the relevant harmonised standard(s):
| System 1: See Directive 89/106/EEC, Annex III(2)(i), without audit-testing of samples. System 3: See Directive 89/106/EEC, Annex HI(2)(ii), Second possibility. System 4: See Directive 89/106/EEC, Annex III(2)(ii), Third possibility. | |||
| Product(s) | Intended use(s) | Level(s) or class(es) | Attestation of conformity system(s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Doors and gates (with or without related hardware) | fire/smoke compartmentation and on escape routes | — | 1 |
| other declared specific uses and/or uses subject to other specific requirements, in particular noise, energy, tightness and safety-in-use | — | 3 | |
| for internal communication only | — | 4 | |
| Building hardware related to doors and gates | fire/smoke compartmentation and on escape routes | — | 1 |
| Windows (with or without related hardware) | fire/smoke compartmentation and on escape routes | — | 1 |
| any other | — | 3 | |
| Shutters and blinds (with or without related hardware) | external use | — | 4 |
The specification for the system should be such that it can be implemented even where performance does not need to be determined for a certain characteristic, because at least one Member State has no legal requirement at all for such characteristic (see Article 2(1) of Directive 89/106/EEC and, where applicable, point 1.2.3. of the Interpretative Documents). In those cases the verification of such a characteristic must not be imposed on the manufacturer if he does not wish to declare the performance of the product in that respect.
