Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards,
the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards for lift
landing doors that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
EN 81-20 has identified the need for lift doors to act as fire barriers against the transfer of a fire via the lift
well. This European Standard specifies a procedure for this purpose. It follows the general principle of
EN 1363-1 and where appropriate the procedure of EN 1634-1. Additionally a tracer gas technique for
establishing the integrity of a lift landing door is used.
Lift landing doors are not included in the scope of EN 1634-1.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the method of test for determining the fire resistance of lift landing doors
which may be exposed to a fire from the landing side. The procedure applies to all types of lift landing doors
used as a means of access to lifts in buildings and which are intended to provide a fire barrier to the spread
of fire via the lift well.
The procedure allows for the measurement of integrity and if required the measurement of radiation and
thermal insulation.
No requirements other than the verification that the specimen is operational are included for mechanical
conditioning before the test as these are included in the relevant product standard.

standard
3.3
thermally insulated lift landing door
lift landing door which is intended to satisfy the insulation criteria of EN 1363-1 and 15.2 of this standard
3.4
door opening
width of the clear opening allowing free passage through the open lift landing door
3.5
door assembly
complete assembly, including any frame or guide, door leaf or leaves, which is provided for access to and
from the lift and the landing
Note 1 to entry: It includes all panels, hardware, sealing materials and any operating components.
3.6
supporting construction
construction provided in the opening of the test frame or the furnace front in order to accommodate the test
specimen
3.7
leakage rate
total flow rate of hot gases passing through openings and gaps of the door assembly, due to overpressure on
the landing side
4 Test principle
4.1 EN 1634-1 contains a procedure for the determination of fire resistance of doors which may be
exposed to a fire in a building from either side and are required to prevent the transfer of fire from one side
to the other. Lift landing doors represent a special use of doors where the fire exposure is expected to be
from a specified direction, i.e. the landing side, and where the hazard exists only subsequent to the entry of a
fire into the lift well. Such a door is generally not designed to possess the same resistance to the passage of
hot gases as a door separating adjacent spaces on the same floor.
4.2 The test consists in exposing the landing side of a lift landing door to the heating conditions specified
in EN 1363-1 for the period for which the door shall be assessed for its fire resistance. During the test,
positive pressure exists over the whole height of the door on the exposed side, inducing the leakage of
furnace gases to the unheated side. A canopy is provided on the unexposed side which collects the leaked
gases and a suction fan draws these through a duct provided with a system for measuring the volume flow
(see Annex A). The concentration of CO , used as a tracer gas, is measured in the furnace and at the airflow
2
measuring point, and by monitoring the gas flow rate and its temperature it is possible to calculate the
leakage rate of hot gases through the test door. The method gives a record of the hot gas leakage as a
function of time which is corrected for normal conditions. This provides a basis for assessing the ability of
the door to act as an effective fire barrier.
NOTE ISO 3008-2 has the same test principle as EN 81-58 based on CO measurement.

5 Test equipment
5.1 The test furnace shall be as described in EN 1363-1.
5.2 The canopy shall be as specified in Annex A.
5.3 The measuring system for leakage rate shall be as specified in Annex A.
6 Test conditions
6.1 The furnace shall be controlled to follow the temperature/time curve as specified in EN 1363-1.
6.2 The furnace shall maintain positive pressure on the exposed side over the whole height of the
specimen such that the pressure at the sill level is in the range of (2 + 8,5 * H ) ± 2 Pa where H is the
sill sill
vertical distance (in meters) between the sill level and the intended floor level.
NOTE In some applications such as service lifts or dumbwaiters, the sill level may be different than the intended
floor level.
7 Test specimen
7.1 Construction
The test specimen shall be fully representative of the door assembly on which information is required.
7.2 Number of specimens
As information is required when the door is exposed to heating from the landing side only, one specimen is
tested. A second specimen may be required according to 10.2 to verify the door construction.
7.3 Size of specimen
The specimen shall be full size or the maximum size that can be accommodated in the furnace. The typical
size of the front opening of the furnace is 3 m × 3 m. In order to expose a required minimum width of
200 mm of supporting construction for a typical 3 m × 3 m furnace, the opening in the supporting
construction is restricted to 2,6 m × 2,8 m (width x height).
7.4 Installation of specimen
The specimen shall be mounted in a supporting construction having adequate fire resistance. The supporting
construction shall be built first within the test frame leaving an aperture of the specified size. The width of
the supporting construction on the two vertical sides and the top shall be not less than 200 mm.
The design of the connection between the door and the supporting construction, including any materials
used to make the junction, shall be as used in practice with the type of the supporting construction. The
position of the door assembly in relation to the supporting construction shall be as in practice.
The clearances at the beginning of test shall correspond to the maximum that is permissible by EN 81-20
when the lift landing doors are put into service, unless designed for another maximum gap size, which shall
then apply.

EN 81-58:2018 (E)
8 Supporting construction
In view of the field of direct application of test results, the lift landing doors shall be erected in the standard
supporting construction as described in Annex B.
NOTE In special cases the supporting construction may be of a type with which the door is intended to be used in
practice. In such cases the field of application of the test results is restricted to that construction.
9 Conditioning
9.1 The test specimen, as well as the supporting construction and any sealing materials used, shall be
conditioned in accordance with the requirements of EN 1363-1 and EN 1634-1. No special conditioning
procedures are required where the specimen is constructed primarily from non-hygroscopic materials. Full
conditioning of the supporting construction may not be required if it is known that there will be no effect on
the behaviour of the specimen or the fixing system.
9.2 Samples of materials used in the test door shall be supplied to determine moisture content when
necessary.
10 Pre-test examination
10.1 General
Before the test, it shall be verified that the constructional details and clearance gap measurements and depth
of penetration conform to the production and assembly drawings for the door system. It shall also be
verified that the test specimen is operational.
10.2 Constructional details
A full detailed specification of the test specimen shall be provided by the test sponsor prior to its installation
at the laboratory. This specification shall be to a level of detail sufficient to allow the laboratory to conduct a
detailed examination of the specimen before the test and to agree the accuracy of the information supplied.
The verification of the test specimen shall be carried out in accordance with the guidance given in
EN 1363-1.
When the method of construction precludes a detailed survey of the specimen, without having to
permanently damage it or if it is considered that it will subsequently be impossible to evaluate construction
details from post-test examination, then one of two options shall be exercised by the laboratory, either:
a) the laboratory shall request to oversee the manufacturing of the door or shutter assembly(ies) which is
to be the subject of the test; or
b) the sponsor shall be requested to supply an additional assembly or part of the assembly (e.g. a door leaf)
to the number required for test. The laboratory shall then choose freely which of these shall be
submitted to the test and which shall be used to verify the construction.
10.3 Clearance gap measurements and depth of penetration
The clearances between the moving components and the fixed parts of the door assembly shall be measured
prior to the test. Sufficient measurements shall be made to adequately describe the nature of the gaps and
there shall be a minimum of three measurements along each side or edge. The gap sizes shall be described to
an accuracy of ± 0,5 mm. Figure 1 to Figure 4 show different types of lift landing doors and indicate the gaps
(g) which need to be recorded. The depth of penetration and safety guides (if any) shall be measured and
recorded.
