You will need these basic measurements:

• Width  =  How  wide  is  the  Frame  Depth/Jamb  Depth  
• Length  =  The  distance  between  the  hinge  and  strike  jambs  (this  is  typically  the  door  opening  size  i.e.:  3’0”,  4’0”,  6’0”)  
• Height  =  The  desired  height  coming  off  the  ground  no  greater  that  ¾”  (anything  higher  then  becomes  a  trip  hazard.)

• Latch  guard  is  for  added  security  purposes.  
• Drip  guard  prevents  water  getting  on  the  face  of  the  door.  
• Wall  stops  prevent  the  door  from  damaging  the  wall  that  the  door  swings  towards.  
• Kick  plates  are  for  doors  where  is  someone  is  walking  with  their  hands  full  often,  pushing  carts  or  another  reason  they  would  kick   the  door  vs  use  handle.  
• Weather  stripping  is  for  exterior  doors  to  prevent  drafts  or  unwanted  weather  from  getting  in  and  for  temperature-controlled  facilities.

A  door  protection  plate  providing  protection  against  the  lower  portion  of  the  door.  8",  10",  12"  and  16"  heights  are  typical.  The  use  of  16"  high  kick  plates  is  recommended  for  use  on  doors  used  by  people  in  wheel  chairs.

Rubber  stops  that  are  mounted  to  the  wall  vs.  floor  to  reduce  impact  and damage  from  swinging  doors  and  to  avoid  trip  hazards  from  floor  mounted  type  stops.

An  aluminum  piece  that  attaches  above  an  exterior  door  or  storm  door  to  divert  rain  and  water  run-off  away  from  the  entryway.

Did  you  know  that  on  a  door  with  traditional  butt  hinges,  70%  of  the  door  weight  is  on  the  top  hinge?  The  top  hinge  also  bears  the  brunt  of  abuse  when  doors  are  opened  beyond  the  stop  device,  resulting  in  kickback  shock  and  eventual  failure  of  the  hinge  and  damage  to  the  frame.  This  is  why  continuous  hinges  are  recommended  for  heavy  doors  and  for  situations  where  doors  are  exposed  to  misuse.  Continuous  hinges  reduce  the  factors  leading  to  hinge  failure  by  distributing  weight  evenly  so  wear  and  tear  to  the  frame  and  door  is  reduced  significantly.  

In  addition,  continuous  hinges:
•  Increase  security  and  reduce  vandalism  by  preventing  insertion  of  devices  between  the  door  and  frame
•  Ease  installation  by  providing  simple  alignment  of  electrical  transfers  and  of  monitoring  switches
•  Reduces  air  infiltration  by  creating  a  complete  seal  from  top  to  bottom  of  the  door  at  the  hinge  jamb

A  commercial  hinge  consisting  of  two  full-height,  paired  and  geared  leaves.  Each  geared  leaf  rotates  evenly  from  top  to  bottom  riding  on  proprietary  polymer  blended  bearings.  The  geared  leaves  and  bearings  are  held  together  by  a  full-length  channel  cap.  This  assembly  retains  the  smooth,  clean  lines  of  the  door  and  frame,  while  easily  supporting  heavy  vertical  loads

A  steel  or  aluminum  plate  completely  cover  the  latch  area  protecting  the  latch  area  of  a  door  from  prying  and  shimming.

Fire  doors  must  use  fire  rated/listed  hardware  components,  these  components  must  offer  the  opening  the  following:  
a.  Door  must  be  self-closing  (“listed”  door  closer  or  spring  hinges  required)  
b.  Door  must  be  self-latching  (“listed”  mortised,  cylindrical  locks  or  “listed”  exit  device  required)

Access  control  is  the  ability  to  permit  or  deny  the  use  of  a  particular  resource  by  a  particular  entity.  Access  control  mechanisms  can  be  used  in  managing  physical  resources,  logical  resources,  or  digital  resources.
