BS EN 15939: 2011
Hardware for furniture. Strength and loading capacity of wall attachment
devices.
This new harmonised European Standard is designed to allow
hardware manufacturers to assess the performance of their products, and help
furniture manufacturers select product. The standard covers the performance of
brackets used to attach cabinets to walls, and is predominantly (although not
exclusively) aimed at the kitchen market. The standard focuses on the parts of
the bracket that attach to the cabinet rather than the parts that are wall
mounted and contains methods to assess how much load a bracket can support.
It is understood that during the publication process some
problems were noted with the test methods in the standard, and an immediate
amendment may be forthcoming.
