Opening width/height and surrounding construction
TREVIK · PROJECT AUTHORITY CENTRE
Move from product interest to a controlled project specification.
Coordinate doors, transparent closures, shutters and canopies around opening geometry, wind/air/water performance, safety, access, structure, thresholds, controls and exact-system evidence.
01 · PROJECT INPUTS
Define the conditions before the exact system is released.
These inputs are deliberately upstream of model selection so the product does not dictate the brief.
Internal/external, exposure and wind criteria
Transparency, security, ventilation and weather objective
Operation frequency and manual/motorised control
Threshold, drainage and floor-level interfaces
Fire/egress/accessibility requirements where relevant
Power, controls, sensors and emergency operation
Finish, corrosion class, fixing substrate and installation responsibility
02 · EVIDENCE CONTROL
Keep project claims attached to what the evidence actually proves.
Generic declarations, outdated catalogues or unrelated certificates should not be carried into a project as exact-system evidence.
Exact-system dimensional/section data
Wind/air/water performance evidence where claimed
Glass/polycarbonate/material safety evidence
Motor/control/safety-device documentation
Fire/egress evidence only where exact product is approved for that use
Coating/corrosion evidence
Fixing/structural requirements and warranty
03 · CAD / DRAWING REGISTER
Planning references are not exact-system construction drawings.
Every drawing/model status stays visible so consultants know what can be used now and what only exists after configuration or project-specific design.
| Resource | Status | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Opening concept / planning layout | Public planning | Early scope, interface and consultant coordination only. |
| Generic technical reference / typical detail | Public planning | Explains system logic without representing an exact supplied configuration. |
| Exact-system GA / dimensional drawing | Exact-system | Issued only after the quoted system/configuration is known. |
| Native CAD / DWG / DXF | Verify availability | Availability and revision must be confirmed against the exact supplied system. |
| BIM / Revit / IFC object | Verify availability | Only described as BIM where a genuine verified native model exists. |
| Foundation / fixing / setting-out drawing | Project-specific | Depends on site/building conditions, local engineering and the selected system. |
| Services / electrical / controls interface | Project-specific | Coordinates the supplied system with local power, data, water, drainage or controls. |
04 · SPECIFICATION STARTER
Write the project around performance, interfaces and evidence.
These clauses are a project-planning structure, not a substitute for local professional specifications or exact-system documentation.
Opening and surrounding construction
System type / operation
Weather/wind/security performance
Glazing/panel/material configuration
Threshold/drainage
Motor/control/safety logic
Access/egress/fire interfaces
Finish/corrosion
Fixing/installation/submittals
05 · TENDER / RFP SCHEDULE
Ask bidders for the same controlled information.
A consistent schedule makes technical comparison easier and reduces hidden assumptions.
Opening schedule
Elevations/sections
Exposure/wind criteria
Operation/security requirements
Threshold/drainage
Controls/power
Finish
Local code/access/fire interfaces
Drawing/evidence schedule
06 · OPERATIONS & HANDOVER
Specify how the system will be maintained after delivery.
Maintenance, spares, records and inspection should be defined before purchase, especially for remote or high-use projects.
Track/roller/hinge inspection
Motor/control/sensor test
Emergency/manual operation test
Seal/weatherstrip inspection
Drainage/threshold cleaning
Glazing/panel inspection
Coating/corrosion check
Spare hardware/control register
DOWNLOADABLE PROJECT RESOURCE
Carry the authority pack into the project file.
Export the current project-control structure, then replace planning statements with exact project/system information as the design develops.
