Building -- Estimates; Factories -- Design and construction; Hardware
In drafting a schedule of hardware required for a building, it must be
compiled from a copy of the hardware specifications and a list of all
openings, cabinets, etc. that has been taken from the drawings. The
schedule should be subdivided primarily into building sections, such as
_first floor_, _second floor_, etc. as headings. Under these headings,
each opening or group of openings in each room or division should be
listed. Under the name of each opening or series of openings should be
grouped all the hardware required, itemizing each and every article
necessary and stating the quantity, numbers, sizes, or dimensions,
design, and finish.
Schedules thus prepared are readily priced for estimating, and such
classification eliminates the possibilities of omissions. Besides, the
order can be executed by the manufacturer in exact conformity with
the instructions, the hardware for each opening can be combined in a
separate package, and each package clearly labeled to indicate its
contents and the room or opening to which it belongs. The following
shows a typical form of schedule:
