    Commercial Door Hardware

    Commercial door hardware is the mechanical and electrified hardware that hangs, closes, latches, locks and controls access to a door. Mills & Nebraska supplies and specifies commercial door locks, exit devices, closers, hinges and electrified hardware in Florida, with an Architectural Hardware Consultant on staff to match every opening to code.

    Hardware is chosen opening by opening, so fire rating, egress, accessibility, security and keying are settled together on one hardware schedule.

    How to Choose Commercial Door Hardware

    1. 1

      Match hardware to the fire rating. Fire doors need self-closing, positive latching hardware listed for fire doors, and panic hardware on a rated door must be fire exit hardware (listed to UL 305 and UL 10C).

    2. 2

      Check egress. The Florida Building Code requires panic or fire exit hardware on latching doors serving Group A or Group E rooms with 50 or more occupants and on doors serving Group H occupancies.

    3. 3

      Choose locks by traffic and security: cylindrical (bored) locksets for standard commercial traffic and easy service, and mortise locks for hospitals, hotels and high-frequency doors.

    4. 4

      Size hinges by weight and frequency: ball bearing butt hinges on standard doors, continuous hinges on high-traffic or abuse-prone openings, and stainless steel near the coast.

    5. 5

      Keep accessible doors within the 2010 ADA Standards: 5 pounds maximum opening force on interior hinged doors, with fire doors set to the minimum allowed by the authority having jurisdiction.

    6. 6

      Plan electrified openings and keying early: fail-safe or fail-secure operation, power, request-to-exit, door position monitoring, and SFIC or conventional keying.

    Commercial Door Hardware: Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you stock commercial door hardware in Orlando?

    Yes. Mills & Nebraska stocks hardware at our Orlando facility, including hinges, closers, exit devices and access control components, with Same Day lead times on stocked items.

    Can you specify hardware for Florida fire-rated doors?

    Yes. Our team provides fire-rated hardware specification per NFPA 80 and the Florida Fire Prevention Code, so assemblies are documented for inspection.

    Do you have an Architectural Hardware Consultant on staff?

    Yes. Mills & Nebraska has an Architectural Hardware Consultant on staff who supports our Design and Specification Services, including hardware consulting, hardware scheduling by opening, and keying and master key systems.

    Is electrified hardware a separate product category?
