for louvers, locks, closers, or other hardware for 45-minute

though 90-minute doors. 20-minute PC and SLC doors must be

a minimum of 5” (127 mm) [5”], and 20 minute SCLC doors must

be a minimum of 1-1/2” (38 mm).

These distances must be maintained or the fire label and warranty

Using a 10” (254 mm) margin between the edge of the door and

the edge of any cutout near the lock area will eliminate most label

and warranty conflicts.
