Failure to Maintain Fire Door Assemblies
Summary
During a recertification survey, it was found that the means of egress in Building #1 was not maintained according to the required standards. Specifically, the smoke barrier door in the core area/West Unit failed to close and latch properly. This issue was observed during an inspection, and it was noted that door S4 had failed inspections in 2022, 2023, and 2024, with no documented evidence of repairs being made. The failure to address these defects in the fire door assemblies is a violation of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 80 Standard for Fire Doors and Other Opening Protectives, 2010 Edition section 5.1.5.
