  1. The following information is intended to provide guidelines for all door hardware. Cabinetry doors, shelving, and folding partition hardware are covered in other parts of these standards. Temporary facilities and controls are covered in other parts of these standards or are available from the WWU project representative.
  2. Selection of materials, colors, finishes and sizes must be approved by WWU project representative. Unless otherwise approved, the design intent would be to select materials that blend with existing or adjacent campus building features.
  3. Require consultation with Western Washington University (WWU) Lockshop for selection of locking hardware and other devices requiring a key. Coordination conference shall be initiated and conducted by the finish hardware supplier and/or WWU Lockshop to determine security requirements, confirm all locking functions, and verify final count of Owner installed key cylinders.
  4. Templates shall be provided for all hardware that requires machining or preparation to doors and frames.
  5. Require coordination with electrical designers for power and control wiring for devices including automatic door operators, electromagnetic door holders, smoke detector hold open/closers, and access control systems. Contractor’s hardware supplier shall submit an electronic file copy of wiring diagrams for all electrified hardware. Indicate voltage and amperage requirements. Provide riser, sequence of operation, point to point wiring diagrams, and a description of system operation.
  6. Hardware supplier shall be a direct factory contract supplier who employs a certified architectural hardware consultant (AHC) available at all reasonable times during the course of the work for project hardware consultation to owner, architect, and contractor. Design teams are encouraged to contact Allegion at the Bothell Office for technical assistance prior to bidding. Point of contact is Eric Miles---Eric.Miles@allegion.com 360-553-9034.
