Why this product was flagged

Recorded hazard

The doorsets were marketed, labelled and/or listed on a declaration of performance as being suitable for external use (EN 14351-1), and also marketed and/or labelled as providing fire resistance characteristics. However, they had not been manufactured and conformity marked in accordance with the required level of independent oversight and testing for use as external doorsets claiming fire performance (under the harmonised standard EN 16034:2014). This means that the fire performance of these doorsets cannot be guaranteed when used in an external location.
