NIGP 91014: Door Installation, Maintenance, and Repair (Metal)

NIGP 91014 Door Installation, Maintenance, and Repair (Metal) is an Item code capturing the full scope of commercial and institutional metal door work state and local governments buy today—from removal, installation, and repair of exterior and interior doors to replacement of fire-rated assemblies, overhead and roll-up systems, and integration of access control hardware. The work runs across school districts, county governments, municipalities, state agencies, and special-purpose districts, all issuing on-call and single-project basis through RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB vehicles. Solicitations emphasize compliance with fire codes (NFPA, ASME, ANSI), ADA requirements, and security standards; most require firm, fixed pricing on labor and materials with parts markup capped at 20 percent, prevailing wage where public works applies, and response-time guarantees (24-hour service calls, emergency response within one hour typical). Insurance thresholds run $1 million general liability and workers' compensation as baseline, with umbrella and professional liability often added. Bidders typically must demonstrate three years of relevant experience, hold state contractor licenses, and provide three references for similar work completed in the past year or three years depending on issuer.

Henry County (Georgia) Purchasing Department issued RFP #27-10 for annual inspections, preventative maintenance, and repair services for overhead, ADA, and specialized doors across 50 county locations, with proposals due September 15 and local-vendor preference (within 5 percent of low bid allowed to match). Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for interior and exterior door installation and repair at state-supported living centers in Lubbock and Terrell, with geographic requirements (20-mile radius) functioning as a de facto local preference and response deadlines in August and September 2026. Activity remains steady across the code with no recent drought in opportunities.
