UNSPSC 30171514: Door closers

UNSPSC 30171514 Door closers, a Commodity code, names a discrete product line, though state and local governments source door closers as components embedded in larger facility renovation, maintenance, and repair work rather than as standalone procurement items. Recent opportunities show that door closers and related hardware appear as line items within broader scopes: bathroom renovations, gym-facility interior door replacement, overhead door system overhauls, and preventative-maintenance contracts for multi-building portfolios. Issuing bodies span city public works departments, county facilities management, school districts (including Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind, which appears twice in recent activity), state departments of corrections and transportation, and special-purpose institutions such as university facilities offices. The work being solicited ranges from emergency repair and maintenance services on existing door systems to full replacement and modernization projects; representative recent activity includes the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind's procurement of electromagnetic door holders and low-voltage controls across five campus buildings (ITB-27-009, due September 10, 2026), the Illinois Department of Corrections' two-year repair contract for LCN Model 4111 door closures at the Kewanee Life Skills Re-Entry Center (due May 15, 2026), and Henry County, Georgia's RFP for annual inspections, preventative maintenance, and repair services covering 50 locations across county facilities including fire stations, libraries, and administrative buildings (RFP #27-10, due September 15, 2026).

Geographic spread of recent activity includes Georgia (City of St. Marys, City of Augusta, Henry County, Forsyth County), Florida (Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind, Clay County), Illinois (Illinois Department of Corrections), Utah (State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of Utah National Guard), Texas (City of Arlington, University of Texas at Tyler), California (County of Santa Clara), Connecticut (Housing Authority of the City of Hartford), Wisconsin (Portage County, Mt. Hood Community College), and Washington state (Sourcewell cooperative). State and local buyers are pursuing standing maintenance contracts with one-year terms and multiple renewal options, time-and-materials service schedules for as-needed work, and fixed-price replacement projects for specific facilities or fleet components. Bid responses typically require proof of state licensing (C-36 plumbing contractor in California, commercial general contractor in Georgia), workers' compensation and general liability insurance in the $1 million to $3 million range, and performance bonds equal to 5 to 10 percent of contract value for construction-oriented work. The activity is steady and distributed across institutional buyers rather than concentrated in one or two high-volume jurisdictions.
