The Ritz-Carlton, Turks & Caicos

What openings in oceanfront resort hotels typically require

General requirements for this building type under the codes and standards that commonly apply. They are not a list of the products supplied on this project; each opening follows the project's drawings, hardware schedule and code review.

• Exterior doors, frames and hardware rated for high wind and impact loads, in corrosion-resistant materials and finishes suited to salt air.
• Guest room entry doors with electronic locks, deadbolt and privacy functions, self-closing hardware and fire-rated assemblies where they open onto corridors.
• Fire-rated stair and corridor door assemblies with positive latching in high-rise towers, installed per NFPA 80 where that standard is adopted or specified.
• Access control separating guests, residents and staff at casino, back-of-house and residence-only areas.
• Local building regulations rather than the Florida Building Code, with accessibility features often set by the operator's brand standards.
