EN81-58 Norms
E Class Fire resistant Doors
The fire resistant lift landing doors are the most diffused in Europe and in the world.
Their essential feature is to satisfy the fire resistance requirements of the fireproof rules for the buildings.
In 2003, after the introduction of the new norms EN81-58, in Europe it was found a meeting point on the type of tests to be applied to the prototypes of landing door.
This has allowed to eliminate the differences in specifications of doors determined by local fire authorities, which are generally different from country to country.
Three classes of resistance are available:
- Class "E" (fire resistant doors)
- Class "EW" (fire resistant doors with limited irradiation)
- Class "EI" (fire-cutting doors)
Compared to the old tests, the fire resistant doors class "E" have the following features:
- Sheet 15/10 thickness instead of 18/10
- Possible execution without thermo-expanding gaskets
- Possible execution without top and rabbet side labyrinth
Furthermore, Hydra and Pegasus doors in fire resistant execution class "E" may be certified anti-vandal according to European standards EN81-71: 2005.

Explosionproof installations
A mechanism or operator in explosionproof execution is able to avoid the triggering of sparks, according to 1127:1997 standards.
In case of explosionproof installations, normally installed in difficult environments, mechanism, operator and electrical components are available in special executions to ensure their functioning and their working life.

IP54 installations
The installations in IP54 execution are the ideal solutions in case of exposure to humidity, to the inclemency of the weather and to other environmental conditions particularly difficult (for example proximity to the sea or in the presence of highly corrosive agents).
The particular environmental conditions make it necessary to use all the components in stainless steel, beginning from the hanger.
So, as well as provide resistance to the explosion, you get additional protection to corrosion.

The components not feasible in stainless steel will be painted with polyester powder for outdoor RAL.
The lock will be in IP54 execution thank to the application of a safety contact on the standard lock. This allows you to remove all the seals subjected to aging.
