1 Second Revision No NFPA [ Section No ] * Classroom Door Locking to Prevent Unwanted Entry. Classroom doors shall be permitted to be locked to prevent unwanted entry provided that the locking means is approved and all of the following conditions are met: The locking means is approved. (1) The locking means can shall be capable of being engaged without opening the door. (2) The unlocking and unlatching from the classroom side of the door can be accomplished without the use of a key or tool, tool, or special knowledge or effort. (3) The unlocking and unlatching requires releasing mechanism shall open the door leaf with not more than one releasing operation. (4) The releasing mechanism for unlocking and unlatching means are mounted shall be located at a height not less than 34 in. (865 mm) and not exceeding 48 in. (1220 mm) above the finished floor. (5) Locks, if remotely engaged, can shall be unlocked unlockable from the classroom side of the door without the use of a key, tool, or special knowledge or effort. (6) The door is capable of being unlocked and opened from outside the room by staff with the necessary key or other credential. (7) The locking means does shall not modify the door closer, panic hardware, or fire exit hardware. (8) Modifications to fire door assemblies, including door hardware, shall be in accordance with NFPA 80. (9) The emergency action plan, required by , addresses shall address the use of the locking and unlocking means from within and outside the room. (10) Staff is drilled in the engagement and release of the locking means, from within and outside the room, as part of the emergency egress drills required by Supplemental Information File Name A docx Description Submittal Date: Tue Jul 26 13:56:33 EDT 2016 The supports the First Draft text with minor modifications as directed by the Correlating. During the First Draft, the section was inadvertantly added with no charging statement. A statement has been added to the front of the Section to clarify that classroom doors are permitted to be locked to prevent unwanted entry only if the locking means is approved and all of the criteria in the list are met. The committee used some of the changes as proposed in Public Comment No.183 as the basis for edits to the section. Numbered items were updated with the word "shall" for editorial correction. Text was added to clarify that the unlocking and unlatching operation in the classroom cannot require the use of key, tool, special knowledge or effort which is consistent with other locking and latching provisions in Chapter 7. A minimum height for the location of the releasing mechanism, consistent with Chapter 7, was added to ensure that the mechanism was not located on the floor or low on the door and the text was updated to clarify that it is the releasing mechanism that must be located within the 34-48" range. Item 7 has been updated to delete 'by staff' from the First Revision as it was too specific. It may not just be staff opening the door, it could be first responders for example. The Workshop on School Safety, Codes and Security Final Report documented the need to lock classroom doors against unwanted entry and accepted the need that a second locking means may be needed for existing buildings. The multiple provisions proposed as part of / address the concerns for accomplishing door locking in a safe manner. The detailed criteria will weed out the dangerous hardware and locking means being promoted in the marketplace by those unfamiliar with traditional egress needs. Annex: While the Section is written to apply only to classroom doors, newly proposed Annex language explains to AHJs and

2 facilities how the section may be useful in other areas of educational occupancies that may also need to be secured. Public Comment No. 183-NFPA [Section No ] Public Comment No. 20-NFPA [New Section after ]

3 A While Section establishes locking criteria for classroom doors only, there may be situations where a school s emergency action plan identifies other areas that may need to be secured. The provisions of this Section may be considered when evaluating those areas as well. Examples of those areas are administrative offices, gymnasiums, teacher lounges, libraries, auditoriums, and cafeterias.

4 Second Revision No NFPA [ Section No ] Risk Analysis for Mass Notification Systems. A risk analysis for mass notification systems shall be provided in accordance with Section 9.14 shall be performed to determine if a mass notification system is required. Submittal Date: Tue Jul 19 08:53:47 EDT 2016 The committee has reviewed the provisions of Section 9.14 and supports the changes made to the text during the Second Draft. Reference to Section 9.14 is being retained. Updates to new Section are editorial and help clarify that the risk analysis is required prior to determining if a mass notification system is necessary.

5 Second Revision No NFPA [ New Section after ] Integrated Fire Protection Systems. Integrated fire protection systems shall be tested in accordance with Submittal Date: Fri Jul 29 14:47:40 EDT 2016 The supports the language as proposed in Input No New Section requires where two or more fire protection or life safety systems are integrated, the integrated system test shall verify the proper operation and function of such systems in accordance with NFPA 4. Reference to this new section is being added for both new educational occupancies and new daycare occupancies.

6 Second Revision No NFPA [ Section No ] * Classroom Door Locking to Prevent Unwanted Entry. Classroom doors shall be permitted to be locked to prevent unwanted entry provided that the locking means is approved and all of the following conditions are met: The locking means is approved. (1) The locking means can shall be capable of being engaged without opening the door. (2) The unlocking and unlatching from the classroom side of the door can be accomplished without the use of a key or tool, tool, or special knowledge or effort.

(10) Staff is drilled in the engagement and release of the locking means, from within and outside the room, as part of the emergency egress drills required by Supplemental Information File Name A docx _Terra_attachment.docx Description For staff use Submittal Date: Fri Jul 29 10:16:44 EDT 2016 The supports the First Draft text with minor modifications as directed by the Correlating. During the First Draft, the section was entertainingly added with no charging statement. A statement has been added to the front of the Section to clarify that classroom doors are permitted to be locked to prevent unwanted entry only if the locking means is approved and all of the criteria in the list are met. The committee used some of the changes as proposed in Public Comment No.185 as the basis for edits to the section. Numbered items were updated with the word "shall" for editorial correction. Text was added to clarify that the unlocking and unlatching operation in the classroom cannot require the use of key, tool, special knowledge or effort which is consistent with other locking and latching provisions in Chapter 7. A minimum height for the location of the releasing mechanism, consistent with Chapter 7, was added to ensure that the mechanism was not located on the floor or low on the door and the text was updated to clarify that it is the releasing mechanism that must be located within the 34-48" range. Item 7 has been updated to delete 'by staff' from the First Revision as it was too specific. It may not just be staff opening the door, it could be first responders for example. The Workshop on School Safety, Codes and Security Final Report documented the need to lock classroom doors against unwanted entry and accepted the need that a second locking means may be needed for existing buildings. The multiple provisions proposed as part of / address the concerns for accomplishing door locking in a safe manner. The detailed criteria will weed out the dangerous hardware and locking means being promoted in the marketplace by those unfamiliar with traditional egress needs.

7 The proposed language supports a safe installation and necessary guidance for situations that are already occurring in existing buildings. The language is written so that it is done to protect occupants but also to ensure the door is operable for safe and quick egress during emergencies. There are currently close to 100,000 existing public school buildings across the country. Without this guidance, non-compliant, and dangerous, installations will continue to occur. Other protection measures are required and relied upon by the Code as part of a total life safety approach. The intent of Chapter 15 is to provide those other measures necessary to ensure that total protection approach. For example, it is critical to ensure the door can be unlocked and opened from outside the room so as to not impede the ability for authorized responders to enter the classroom. The language permits not more than two releasing operations, two releasing operations are not mandatory. It is ultimately up to the local AHJ to approve the locking arrangement. Approval of locking devices may depend on individual scenarios such as classroom use, occupant load, and staffing. The committee supports this as a package of requirements that, together, provide the necessary guidance needed for classroom door locking in existing educational occupancies. The recognizes that hardware does exists, and could be used, that allows two locking mechanisms/devices with one releasing action, such as residential hotel locks. The proposed language addresses the inevitable existing conditions that cannot utilize the "hotel locks."
