Door hardware schedules, drafted from Division 08 for your detailer to check.

A detailer opens the project manual at 08 71 00, pulls the door schedule and floor plans, and reads the architect's hardware sets against every opening. One set can cover forty doors, and each of those doors still needs its own hand, size, rating and key note. The finished schedule goes to the architect for approval and comes back with comments.

In the test, AI reads copies of those same documents and drafts the schedule opening by opening: door number, set, hand, fire rating, function, finish and keying notes, each traced to the page it came from. A separate list names every conflict someone has to settle. Nothing is submitted, and your reviewer holds every draft against what your team sent.

The set doesn't know the door. Duke University lists hardware sets by number in its door schedule, yet also has the supplier furnish whatever else the work needs, listed in a typical set or not. Missouri State wants each door's identification number, location, hand, fire rating, size and material on the schedule, in the contract documents' own sequence and door numbers. On a pair, hand has to name the active leaf: Duke's sample schedule writes RHRA and LHRA for right and left hand reverse active, BA for both active, DA for double acting. The draft keeps your contract's door numbers and lists every opening with no set, every set with no opening, and every pair whose active leaf the drawings leave unclear.

A fire rating changes the item. BHMA's terminology guide says dogging, which holds an exit device's latch bolt retracted, is not permitted on fire exit hardware. Fairfax County's Fire Marshal says listed panic hardware isn't approved for fire door assemblies, that fire exit hardware has to be labeled with the words Listed and Fire Exit Hardware and a control or serial number, and that the door's own label should show it can take that device. So a 90-minute opening on the door schedule with a dogged panic device in its set is a conflict the draft has to raise. Whether the opening complies stays with your detailer and the authority having jurisdiction.

Function numbers belong to one lock type. BHMA's certified product listings number classroom function F84 on a bored lock under A156.2 and F05 on a mortise lock under A156.13; storeroom is F86 and F07. Room names rarely settle it either. Case Western Reserve University gives maintenance, housekeeping and campus network rooms a storeroom function and leaves other rooms to review with the user, while Missouri State allows either a classroom or an office function in both offices and classrooms. The draft keeps what the set names, checks it against the lock type, and lists rooms whose name and function seem to disagree.

Accessibility lines can pull against the section. The 2010 ADA Standards put operable hardware 34 to 48 inches above the floor, time a closer from 90 degrees to 12 degrees from the latch at no less than 5 seconds, and want the bottom 10 inches of the push side smooth, with any cavity from an added kick plate capped. Missouri State's section measures sweep differently, from 70 degrees to 3 inches from the latch in at least 3 seconds. Duke keeps protection plates within 2 inches of door width on the stop side and half an inch on the pull side. The draft quotes each source and makes no call on which one controls; this page isn't code advice either.

Owners rewrite keying and products. Missouri State's keying schedule comes from the hardware supplier, but its own locksmith keys the cylinders and installs them, with one box of key blanks for every 30 cylinders. At Case Western a university security department writes the keying schedule, and restricted cylinders ship straight to the university locksmith. Duke's lock shop supplies cylinders and cores on jobs of twelve locks or fewer. An item Missouri State calls an owner's standard takes no substitution. Your reviewer will watch door numbers, sets, hands on pairs, rated openings, hinge counts by door height, closers one size up on parallel arms, and every conflict your detailer caught that the draft missed.

Once your reviewer says yes, new projects get the same drafting for roughly 30 days.

Each draft waits for your detailer to approve it, and nothing goes to an architect or contractor until a person has.

Your reviewer keeps comparing drafts with finished schedules on live work. Anything further is a separate job with its own price.
