This article was published in the first year of my Decoded column…15 years ago! It was due for an update, and I’m guessing there are still people who are not aware of these requirements.

I love receiving Fixed-it Friday photos, but I ESPECIALLY love receiving them from my own kids! My oldest daughter sent me today’s photo from New York City…”Hey Mom – What’s this thing do?”

Kelly Reese of Allegion sent me this really cool piece of Von Duprin marketing memorabilia from 1932. Thank you to Lyman Door & Hardware for keeping it around for all these years!
I might have to do a “What’s that?” post to explain what we’re looking at in today’s Wordless Wednesday photo sent in by Paul Hawley of P.H. Hawley Associates. Any guesses?

My recent posts about delayed egress locks have raised a question from a reader about the Remote Chexit Module (RCM). What is this component used for and when should it be specified?
Today’s Quick Question is not specifically answered in the model codes as far as I can tell: Are delayed egress locks permitted on doors serving electrical rooms where panic hardware is required?

I love this Fixed-it Friday photo, sent by JB Ford of PSI Doors and Hardware. It was taken in a really cool entertainment venue in Natick, Massachusetts. Zoom in!

I have updated this Decoded article to include the most recent code requirements, as the I-Codes now permit additional types of hardware to project into the clear opening height.
I received today’s Wordless Wednesday photos from Ruth Neeman – they were taken in a public building in Massachusetts. Since when does HVAC take priority over fire protection??
