6.3 Door operation

 Similarly, immediately prior to test, the laboratory should check the operability of the door by opening the door leaf by a distance of at least 300 mm. The door leaf should then be closed, either automatically, if such a closing device is provided, or manually. The door may be latched for the test but should not be locked, and no devices for latching or locking should be included which are not normally incorporated in practice.
