Posted on May 6, 2024 in Technology

DOOR OPERATION TYPES

  • Single side hung
  • Double lead
  • Sliding
  • Swinging (oscilante)
  • Centre folding (cierre de casa, varias hojas)
  • Folding (solo dos hojas)
  • Revolving
  • Overhead up-and-over (garage)

PARTS OF A DOOR

  1. Frame
  2. Leaf
  3. Threshold
  4. Connecting jamb
  5. Hinge
  6. Lock/hatch

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA FOR EXTERNAL/INTERNAL DOORS

External Entrance

  • Resistance to wind load (1,2,3,4,5, A,B,C)
  • Watertightness (1A-9A)

Internal Entrance Door

  • Air permeability(1,2,3,4)
  • Thermal insulation criteria (declared value)
  • Burglary resistance (1,2,3,4,5,6)

Internal Door

  • Acoustic performance(declared value)
  • General technical requirements
  • Mechanical durability
  • Soft and heavy body impact(1,2,3,4,5,6)
  • Behaviour between different climatic conditions (1A,1B,1C,1D,2A,2B..)
  • Reaction to fire
  • Resistance to fire
  • Smoke leakage (A1,A2,B,C,D,E, minutes)

CLASSIFICATION BASED ON STRENGTH REQUIREMENTS

  1. Vertical load
  2. Static torsion
  3. Soft, heavy impact
  4. Drop height
  5. Hard impact

CLASSIFICATION ON EXPOSURE CATEGORIES

  • (1-2) Weak-Medium. Rare and careful use (e.g., Family house)
  • (2-3) Medium-strong. Use with average frequency, mostly carefully, some chance of misuse or accident
  • (3-4) From strong to extreme. Frequent, careless use, great chance of misuse or accident
  • (4) Extreme exposure. Frequent, drastic use

WALL

Fixing, WOODEN FOLDING FRAME
