Access Door Schedule Review
Have an Access Door Schedule? Let Us Help You Review It Before Procurement.
Access door schedules can contain dozens or even hundreds of line items. A missing size, unclear rating, incomplete finish requirement or undocumented exception can create questions later in the project.
Send your access door schedule to BEST and our team will help review the access door requirements before procurement.
We can help identify:
- Missing or unclear sizes
- Fire-rating requirements
- Wall or ceiling applications
- Material and finish requirements
- Model or product-selection questions
- Custom-size requirements
- Missing technical documentation
- Items that may need clarification from the project team

What Will BEST Review?
Our review focuses on the information needed to help move the access door portion of your project toward procurement.
1. Access Door Sizes
We will review the listed dimensions and flag items that may need additional clarification, including:
- Missing dimensions
- Non-standard sizes
- Possible custom-size requirements
- Existing-opening considerations
- Items where rough-opening information may need to be confirmed
2. Installation Location
We will review the schedule for available information about where each access door will be installed, such as:
- Wall
- Ceiling
- Floor
- Roof
- Exterior assembly
- Specialty application
If the location or orientation is unclear, we can identify it as an item for project-team confirmation.
3. Rating and Performance Requirements
Where indicated in the schedule or accompanying documents, we will review requirements such as:
- Fire rating
- Exterior or weather-resistant performance
- Security
- Acoustic requirements
- Specialty environmental conditions
- Other project-specific performance requirements
BEST does not determine building-code requirements or required fire ratings. Those requirements should be confirmed by the project specifications, design professional, code consultant, AHJ or other applicable project authority.
4. Material and Finish
We can review whether the schedule clearly identifies requirements such as:
- Steel
- Stainless steel
- Aluminum
- Prime coat
- Painted finish
- Drywall or concealed finish
- Recessed finish
- Other specified finishes
5. Hardware and Configuration
Where applicable, we can identify requirements related to:
- Latches
- Locks
- Hinges
- Flange or frame type
- Recessed configurations
- Removable doors
- Other product options
6. Product and Model Information
If models have already been specified, we can review the schedule for:
- Missing model information
- Incomplete product descriptions
- Items requiring further product verification
- Potential custom requirements
If no model has been selected, our team can use the project requirements you provide to help narrow appropriate product options.
7. Technical Documentation
We can also help identify documentation that may be needed for the project, including:
- Product specifications
- Submittal information
- Installation instructions
- BIM or Revit files
- CAD drawings
- Certification or listing documentation
- Other available technical documents
8. Exceptions and Questions
We will flag items that may require additional attention before ordering, such as:
- Missing information
- Conflicting requirements
- Non-standard dimensions
- Custom requests
- Unclear ratings
- Missing project documentation
- Conditions that require confirmation by the project team
Who Is This For?
The Access Door Schedule Review is designed for:
- General contractors
- Estimators
- Architects and specifiers
- Project managers
- Procurement teams
- Subcontractors
- Facility and construction teams managing larger access door packages
It is especially useful when a project includes multiple access door sizes, applications or performance requirements.
What Should I Send?
Upload your available access door schedule.
Common file formats may include:
- Excel
- CSV
- Word
You can also include supporting information or notes that may help us understand the project requirements.
If you do not have a formal schedule, send the access door list, drawings, specifications or other information you are working from.
Before You Upload Your Schedule
The more information available, the more useful the review can be.
Where possible, check whether your schedule includes:
- Access door size
- Quantity
- Installation location
- Wall or ceiling assembly
- Required rating
- Material
- Finish
- Model or product description
- Latch or lock requirement
- Required technical documentation
- Custom requirements
- Project notes or exceptions
Missing information does not prevent you from sending the schedule. Identifying those gaps is part of the review.
What Happens After You Submit?
1. We Review the Information
Our team reviews the access door schedule and the project details you provide.
2. We Identify Questions or Gaps
We may identify items that need clarification, additional documentation or confirmation from your project team.
3. We Help Narrow the Access Solutions
Where sufficient project information is available, we can help identify appropriate access door options and supporting documentation.
4. Move to Pricing When the Requirements Are Ready
Once the access door requirements are clear, you can move into the standard BEST Request a Quote process for pricing and procurement.

Access Door Schedule Review FAQs
What is an access door schedule?
An access door schedule is a project list or table identifying the access doors required for a building. It may include information such as size, quantity, location, rating, material, finish, model and other project requirements.
Do I need a completed access door schedule before sending it?
No. You can send the information you currently have. One purpose of the review is to identify missing or unclear information that may need attention before procurement.
Can BEST select the access doors from my schedule?
BEST can help narrow product options based on the project requirements you provide. Requirements such as required fire ratings, code conditions and project-specific approvals should be confirmed by the appropriate project authority.
Can you review a schedule with custom access door sizes?
Yes. If the schedule includes non-standard dimensions or special requirements, we can identify items that may require custom sizing or additional product review.
Can I upload drawings or specifications with my schedule?
Yes. Supporting specifications, drawings or project information can help provide context for the access door requirements.
Is this the same as Request a Quote?
No. The Access Door Schedule Review is intended for projects where the access door requirements still need to be checked, clarified or organized before pricing.
If your product selections and quantities are already finalized and you are ready for pricing, use BEST's Request a Quote process instead.
What if I only have a few access doors?
You can still send your requirements. The Schedule Review is particularly useful for larger projects, but BEST can also help with smaller access door packages and individual product-selection questions.
Have an Access Door Schedule Ready?
Send it to BEST before you order.
We will help identify access door requirements, documentation needs and questions that may need attention before procurement.
