NIGP 42557: Partitions, Hardware

NIGP 42557 Partitions, Hardware is an Item code encompassing hardware components and fastening systems used to construct or modify interior partition assemblies and dividing structures in buildings and facilities. State and local governments procure partition hardware under this code as part of capital projects, facility reconfiguration work, and renovation efforts — typically through facilities departments, school districts, county public works operations, and municipal building and maintenance programs. The hardware itself includes hinges, locks, latches, brackets, rails, slides, and related mounting and fastening components that enable partition walls, sliding doors, folding dividers, and modular barrier systems to function. Issuing bodies span state departments of transportation and public works, county facilities and maintenance operations, city planning and public works bureaus, independent school districts managing facility construction and renovation, and regional purchasing cooperatives purchasing on behalf of multiple member jurisdictions.
