A few weeks ago I posted a recorded class on delayed egress and controlled egress locking systems.  If you’d prefer to listen to that presentation live, I will be conducting the class for the American Society for Health Care Engineering on April 22nd.  You can find more information and register here.

Our Webinar Wednesday sessions continue this week, with the following classes available (all times are Eastern Daylight Time):

  • 10:00am – 11:00am: Code Changes Affecting Classroom Doors
    • The 2018 editions of the International Building Code, International Fire Code, and NFPA 101 – Life Safety Code, all include changes specific to classroom doors. A Tentative Interim Amendment was approved in 2019 which further modifies the 2018 edition of NFPA 101. This session will cover the requirements of these model codes as they apply to classroom doors, including how these changes and some states’ legislation impact the types of security devices allowed on classroom doors. Jeff Tock, our End User Training Manager, will lead this session.
