Testing Criteria
Listed below are only some of the tests and criteria covered in this standard. For simplification, all tests and details of tests are not elaborated on. For exact and complete details of tests, etc. refer to the complete ANSI/BHMA standard.
1. Cycle test
One cycle consists of the knob or lever handle to be turned to completely retract the latch bolt allowing the test door to be opened. The knob or lever handle is then released allowing the test door to relatch. The turning direction of the knob is alternated every 100,000 cycles.
Performance tests are conducted for compliance at various intervals during and at the end of the cycle test.
