Domestic and Non-Domestic Storage Furniture: Test Methods for the Determination of Strength, Durability and Stability
Also Known As:
A European standard known as BS EN 16122:2012 outlines test procedures for judging the toughness, stability, and longevity of residential and non-domestic storage furniture. This standard does not apply to office, industrial, catering equipment, or retail storage, but it does apply to all forms of storage furniture, including residential kitchen furniture. Additionally, it doesn't evaluate the building's structural integrity; instead, it just considers the cabinets and their connections.
The standard emphasizes that existing European standards have requirements for safety, strength, and durability and that it is not necessary to analyze aging, degradation, or flammability. Details on the test apparatus required for the slam open/shut testing of extension elements are included in Annex A of the standard.
