Hi, the new standard BS7273 part 4  deals with the interface to fire control systems and the connection of devices such as door retainers.

the standard covering the perfomance of the door retaining mechanism itself is BS EN 1155. My product was tested to this standard by Warrington Fire APT.

Ian Keeling is the test manager there for BS 1155 and is also the Chair of the BS EN  1155 standard comittee. His contact details are below.
