Have a submittal for Miami- Dade that I am working on. Helping out another team on this since I am more accustomed to FA.
Issue I am having is that through plan review they are asking a ton of questions. The scope of work is for a business occupancy installing 2 card readers that open a door via electric strike. Connecting to an existing access system in place. The door in question leads to a secure space from a waiting room. A card reader on either side of the same door. Does this door require loss of power due to fire alarm? I am think yes but want to make sure I am not leading the customer down the wrong path.
I may have follow up questions. Is there a really robust resource I a can use online to learn more about this topic. I seems to get confusing at time electric strikes and magnetic locks with life safety.
Thank you
