How codes affect our business…
• The use of many products is code-driven:• Which doors require panic hardware?• What hardware must be used on a fire door?• Where can delayed egress locks be used?
• Codes affect the selection of almost every hardware item:• Fire doors must have hardware that is approved for use
on a fire door assembly, often including gasketing.• Doors on an accessible route must meet accessibility
guidelines – in some cases both A117.1 and the ADA.• Electrified hardware is covered by 7 different code
sections within the IBC and NFPA 101.
