E. Durability
1. Water penetration: Construct openings and components of openings to positively drain
water to exterior of the building.
a. Top of openings: If wall construction does not provide its own methods of drainage,
use separate flashing to prevent water from entering opening components or the
interior of the building.
b. Bottom of openings: Integral or separate sill or flashing to prevent water running
over or draining out of opening components from entering the wall construction
below or the interior of the building.
2. Wear Resistance
a. Door surfaces: Scuff-resistant kick plates/mop plates in areas where foot impact is
likely; highly scratch-resistant in areas where hand contact is likely.
b. Door handles and knobs: Satin stainless finish unless otherwise noted; highly
scratch-resistant and of finish that will minimize appearance changes due to wear; no
plated or coated finishes.
3. Flexible seal materials: Minimize deterioration due to operation of doors and aging.
4. Swinging doors: Control door swing to prevent damage due to impact, to either door or
element impacted.
5. Corrosion: Provide stainless steel base material for hinges, fasteners, pulls, kick and push
plates, strikes, and similar components at doors exposed to weather or in wet locations.
F. Operation and Maintenance
1. Service life span of operating components: Remaining operable for service life of
enclosure elements specified in Section B20 under normal exposure conditions for the
project site.
2. Ease of use and repair: Provide doors that will be easy to use by occupants, easy to repair
or service, and with operating components easy to replace.
