Building Information Modeling
Our specification teams supports architectural clients at every stage of a project, from design and specification to installation and ongoing maintenance. Let our specification teams help you create objective and accurate door hardware schedules, prepare specification briefs and design complete door opening solutions for all applications and security requirements.
Collaboration for the entire building life-cycle
Our specification writers collaborate with architects using a software solution called Openings Studio. It has evolved into a tool that is used by contractors, distributors, owners, facility managers and security consultants. Everyone on a project can work together in an interactive and information-rich environment. Access product images, catalogs, installation instructions - all at the tip of your fingers.
Owners can visualize building standards, establish security requirements and access as-built information. Contractors and builders can have as-supplied information, or receive and track information through installation and punch-out. And security consultants can create fully-wired and tagged electrical elevations.
With our tools, you can easily create complete opening models with doors, frames and hardware specifications. You can rely on one of our specification consultants to help you on your educational, healthcare or government facilities project.
