01 / The material line card
Build the package around each opening.
Match each door mark to its frame, hardware set and operating requirements. Start with the opening schedule, then coordinate preparations, finishes and accessories so the quoted components work together. Specific products and family-brand availability are confirmed against your specification.
Hollow Metal Doors
Select commercial steel door leaves to match the opening, frame and hardware preparation.
- Flush steel doors
- Single and paired openings
- Vision-lite and louver preparations
- Specified core and face-sheet requirements
Hollow Metal Frames
Coordinate frame construction with the wall type, installation sequence and finished opening.
- Welded steel frames
- Knock-down frames
- Masonry and drywall frame profiles
- Borrowed-light / sidelight configurations by specification
Glazed and custom frame configurations require a project-specific review; the quoted assembly must match the wall and glazing requirements.
Rated & Exterior Opening Requirements
Identify the required label and exposure conditions before selecting the door, frame and hardware set.
- Fire-rated steel door/frame requirements
- Galvannealed / galvanized steel specifications
- Exterior cores, finishes and perimeter seals
- Compatible labeled hardware and glazing requirements
Ratings apply to the documented configuration and compatible components. No fire, weather, acoustic or security rating is implied for every opening.
Locks & Latching
Match the lock function and cylinder requirements to how the room is entered, secured and exited.
- Cylindrical locksets
- Mortise locksets
- Cylinders and keying requirements
- Latches, strikes and compatible trim
Include the specified key system and existing cylinder requirements; restricted keyway access must be confirmed.
Exit Devices
Coordinate the device, outside trim and door/frame preparation as one egress opening.
- Rim exit devices
- Surface vertical rod devices
- Concealed vertical rod devices
- Compatible outside trim and mullions
Identify panic or fire-exit hardware requirements from the project schedule. Electrified options require model and interface confirmation.
Door Closers
Match surface-mounted door control to the door weight, traffic and available mounting space.
- Surface closers
- Regular-arm, parallel-arm and top-jamb mounting
- Compatible closer arms and brackets
- Retrofit plates and mounting accessories
Concealed closers, floor closers and automatic operators require separate current-product confirmation.
Hinges & Pivots
Coordinate the hanging hardware with door weight, preparation and the selected closer.
- Butt hinges
- Continuous hinges
- Specified pivot sets
- Hinge reinforcements and compatible fasteners
Weatherseal & Thresholds
Complete the perimeter and bottom of the opening without conflicting with operation or clearances.
- Thresholds
- Door sweeps and bottoms
- Gasketing and weatherstripping
- Specified smoke / fire seals
Select seals for the specified assembly. A product family name does not establish a smoke, fire or acoustic rating.
Architectural Accessories
Keep trim, protection and stopping hardware in the same opening package.
- Push / pull hardware
- Kick plates and protection plates
- Door stops and holders
- Coordinated trim and opening accessories
Electrified Hardware Coordination
Define the opening hardware and the interfaces required by the project’s access-control design.
- Specified electrified locks
- Electric strike requirements
- Power-transfer components
- Access-control interface hardware
Exact electrified products require quotation confirmation. Include the access-control designer’s sequence and identify equipment supplied by other trades; installation and system commissioning are separate scopes.
Specialty Opening Coordination
Separate general commercial hardware from specialist behavioral-health or secure-facility assemblies.
- Facility-specific opening schedules
- Specified assembly and performance documentation
- Interfaces with specialist door systems
Specialized products are reviewed within Specialty & Institutional Products. This general line card does not establish detention, blast, ballistic or ligature-resistant product access.
