Ceco Performance and Conformance Standards

Physical Endurance

Measures a door assembly's ability to resist deterioration resulting from expected usage.

The Test consists of two parts:

  • Swing Test  -  (ANSI A250.4-01) Door  -  Door is open and closed a prescribed number of times. Refer to Fig. #1
  • Twist Test  -  (ANSI A250.4-01) Door 
    Periodically throughout the Swing Test, a 300 lb. load is applied to one of the door's corners to gauge the door's ability to resist permanent deflection.

Security

Measures a door assembly's ability to resist, delay, and frustrate certain burglar attacks. "Attacks" as defined by the NILECJ standard.

Test  -  ASTM F476 - Regent & Medallion doors only

High Security Level - Ceco Door assemblies conform to Classification Grade 40. Grade 40 is the highest rating available under this ASTM test method and is suitable for use in commercial buildings in high crime areas with a high incidence of semi-skilled burglary attacks.

 

Conformance Standards

Conformance to National and Internationally Accepted Specifications and Standards. 

When properly specified, Ceco doors and frames will conform to the document 
requirements of the nationally recognized agencies listed below; the list is not all inclusive.
