Why Choose a Door Hardware Supplier with These Certifications?

When selecting a door hardware supplier, certifications like CE, UL, ANSI, BHMA, and fire ratings are not just optional—they are essential. Here’s why:

1. Compliance with Building Codes and Regulations

Using certified products is often a legal requirement for commercial buildings, particularly in sectors like healthcare, education, and hospitality. These industries must adhere to strict fire safety codes and other regulations, and certified hardware ensures compliance.

Certified door hardware undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it can withstand the demands of high-traffic commercial environments. Fire-rated hardware and UL-rated products, for example, provide critical protection for both people and property in emergencies.

3. Elevated Quality Assurance

Certifications like ANSI and BHMA guarantee that the hardware meets stringent quality standards. This reduces the likelihood of failures, minimizes maintenance costs, and extends the lifespan of the products.

4. Global Reach and Trust

Suppliers with CE, UL, and ANSI certifications can cater to international markets, ensuring their products are accepted globally. This is particularly important for businesses with projects in multiple countries or regions.
