New Building Inspections
In every new construction project, architectural hardware plays a crucial role in the proper functioning, safety, and durability of door systems.
Why Have the Hardware of a New Building Inspected?
Because in new construction projects, an inspection is very often required in the specifications. This professional inspection of architectural hardware ensures the compliance of products and their installation before project handover.
Safety and Compliance
Validate compliance with specification requirements and recognized standards (ANSI/BHMA, Quebec Construction Code, NFPA-80, etc.) to ensure user safety.
Reduced Lead Times
A professional end-of-project inspection helps reduce delays in project delivery by quickly identifying non-compliances.
Avoid Callbacks
To prevent costly callbacks and adjustments after the building has been delivered.
Obtain Full Warranty Coverage
To ensure that the installed products are eligible for their full warranty through a final inspection performed by a qualified inspector.
