| Use advice for data set | Scope: Die Ökobilanz beruht auf Daten, die im Zeitraum von 01 bis 06-2012 am Produktionsstandort Velbert, Deutschland erhoben wurden. Der Inhaber der Deklaration haftet für die zugrundeliegenden Angaben und Nachweise. System boundary: Type of EPD: cradle to gate with options In accordance with EN 15804, the following modules are taken into consideration: Product stage: A1 – A3 The extraction and preparation of raw materials including all of the corresponding upstream chains as well as the provision of electricity, steam and heat from primary energy resources including the extraction, refinement and transport thereof, and the requisite procurement transport to the plant gate and the manufacturing of packaging are considered in this module. Construction stage: A4 – A5 This module comprises the average distribution routes as well as energy recovery associated with the packaging materials. Disposal stage: C2 – C3 This module takes consideration of transport to the recycling plant as well as the expenses incurred by collection, preparation and recycling. Credits: D The value streams incurred for a downstream product system based on material recycling processes as well as energy recovery are indicated in this module. The Life Cycle Assessment was drawn up for Germany as a reference area. This means that apart from the production processes under these marginal conditions, the pre-stages also of relevance for Germany such as provision of electricity or energy carriers were used. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | DORMA OGRO/ CORE door handles are suitable for practically all applications: · For use on doors subject to frequent use of force, e.g. football stadiums, military barracks, schools, public toilets · For extremely high public traffic and maximum strains on the building · For use in public buildings, e.g. hospitals or administrative buildings · Versatile, barrier-free applications · Use in glass doors · Use in mechanically high-strength apartment entrance doors subject to DIN 18257 · Use in panic, escape, rescue route and fire protection doors · Use in doors with electronic access control |

| General comment on data set | DORMA Beschlagtechnik GmbH manufactures door and window fittings made of aluminium for the OGRO/ CORE segment. DORMA OGRO/ CORE product features: Compatibility The modular system permits flexible combinations of the individual components. DORMA OGRO/ CORE door handles in long-term tests OGRO/ CORE aluminium door handles are subjected to long-term tests with up to 2,000,000 test cycles and confirmed by the MPA. They therefore far exceed the requisite 200,000 test cycles in accordance with DIN EN 1906 Class 4. Bases The bases enable reliable introduction of high forces to the door panel thereby relieving the fitting and lock. Slide bearing The maintenance-free slide bearing safely absorbs tilting pressure and traction relieving the strain on the lock follower. Click & go assembly Four click elements facilitate fast assembly of the door handle. The door handles are firmly fixed / rotatable. Retaining springs Four retaining springs ensure that the door handles remain horizontal in everyday use. The fittings can be used on the left or right. Extended supporting cams The extended supporting cams on the thread side of full-leaf rosettes and doorplates enable door thickness intervals of 15 mm to be covered using a screw/pin combination. Continuous screw connections The slack-protected continuous (M5) screws create a stable connection between the rosette or doorplate pairs on full-leaf doors. |

| Technology description including background system | DORMA Beschlagtechnik GmbH manufactures door and window fittings made of aluminium for the OGRO/ CORE segment. DORMA OGRO/ CORE product features: Compatibility The modular system permits flexible combinations of the individual components. DORMA OGRO/ CORE door handles in long-term tests OGRO/ CORE aluminium door handles are subjected to long-term tests with up to 2,000,000 test cycles and confirmed by the MPA. They therefore far exceed the requisite 200,000 test cycles in accordance with DIN EN 1906 Class 4. The aluminium door handles are manufactured as female parts in a die gravity casting process. Various mechanical machining processes are carried out for manufacturing the functional areas and the visible areas prepared for the next stage which involves grinding. The doorplates and rosettes are manufactured from aluminium sheeting in a punching and reshaping process. The surface of the aluminium handles, doorplates and rosettes is prepared for the subsequent anodising process in various grinding processes. The anodising process attributes the surface its natural colour. Alternatively, the fitting components can be dyed to customer requirements during anodising or powder-coated in colour afterwards. Anodising is followed by packing the aluminium handles in accordance with the customer requirements along with the doorplates/rosettes and accessories individually or in groups. Technical data: The following test standards are of relevance for the product: · DIN 17440: Steel and Steel Alloys · DIN EN 179: Building hardware – Emergency exit devices operated by a lever handle or push pad, for use on escape routes · DIN EN 1125: Building hardware – Panic exit devices operated by a horizontal bar, for use on escape routes – Requirements and test methods · DIN EN 1634: Fire resistance of door and locking equipment · DIN EN 1906: Requirements and test methods for door handles and knob furniture in the classification key · DIN 18 082 Part 1: Fire protection closures for steel doors T 30-1 · DIN 18 095 Parts 1 + 2: Doors and smoke control doors · DIN 18 255: Building hardware · DIN 18 257: Protective fittings · DIN 18 273: Lever handle units for fire doors and smoke control doors · DIN 4102 Parts 5 + 18: Fire Performance of Building Materials and Components · DIN 18040: Construction of accessible buildings Declared unit: The declared unit is 1 (one) decorative fitting of the OGRO/ CORE aluminium variant with average weights (incl. packaging materials) of 722 g (aluminium). The Declaration is based on an average value obtained as an arithmetical average of the following building fittings: OGRO/ CORE building fitting for full-leaf doors · Door handle model 8100 · Door handle rosette model 6501 · Key rosette model 6612 with profile cylinder hole OGRO/ CORE building fitting for full-leaf doors · Door handle model 8350 V · Key rosette model 6621 with profile cylinder hole The LCA results (section 5) can therefore be regarded as representative for full-leaf and profile doors. Deviations from this average are ± 0.2% in the case of aluminium. |
