# Detail or Installation Mismatch in Division 08 Openings submittals

> Source: https://deviationcheck.com/divisions/08-openings/detail-installation-mismatch/

The submitted detail, dimension, anchorage, or installation method differs from what the spec or drawings require.

## What to look for in Division 08 Openings

- **Door gauge** lighter than spec (20ga where 18ga specified)
- **Frame gauge** lighter than spec (18ga where 16ga specified)
- **Hinge count or weight rating** below spec (3 vs 5 knuckle, bearing vs plain)
- **Closer size** (ANSI size 1-6) does not match door weight/width
- **Lockset function** mismatch (classroom vs storeroom vs passage vs privacy)
- **Glazing thickness or makeup** differs (monolithic where laminated specified)
- **Curtain wall mullion depth** differs (affects structural capacity and thermal performance)
- **Thermal break** vs non-thermal-break frame (affects U-value compliance)
- **Door undercut** dimension differs from spec (affects fire rating and ADA)
- **Weatherstripping type** differs (compression vs magnetic vs interlocking)
- **Threshold type** differs (ADA compliant height, material)
- **Panic hardware** type or operation differs (rim vs mortise vs CVR)
- **Auto operator** type differs (low energy vs full power, activation method)

## Severity

Default grade: Fix and Resubmit. Escalates to Blocker when the difference affects a fire-rated, seismic, or structural assembly.
