ADA Compliant Doors

The City of Taylor, located in Wayne County, Michigan, is seeking sealed bids from qualified contractors for the installation of ADA-compliant power-operated doors at four city-owned facilities: the Department of Public Works Building, Lakes of Taylor Golf Course, Taylor Meadows Golf Course, and the Animal Shelter. The procurement requires comprehensive door system replacement, including on-site assessments, removal and disposal of existing doors, furnishing and installing commercial-grade power-operated door openers, ADA-compliant push-button actuators, electrical work, motion sensors, and complete system calibration. Bidders must demonstrate a minimum of five years of experience with similar projects and provide proof of licensing and insurance. Key deliverables include fully functional ADA door systems that comply with ADA Accessibility Guidelines and ANSI/BHMA A156.10 & A156.19 standards. The solicitation requires detailed cost breakdowns, product specifications, and five relevant references. Critical dates include a question acceptance deadline of October 31, 2025, and bid submissions due November 27, 2025, at 5:00 PM, with a bid opening scheduled for 10:00 AM that same day. Evaluation will focus on per-unit pricing and overall project advantageousness to the City.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract will be awarded to two responsible bidders, with the City reserving the right to assign projects based on availability and funding. Insurance requirements are substantial, mandating $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate general liability coverage, with the City of Taylor named as an additional insured. Bidders must provide a $5,000 bid surety in the form of a certified check, bank cashier's check, money order, or corporate surety bond. The contract period covers the City of Taylor Fiscal Year from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, with potential extensions for up to three additional fiscal years upon mutual written agreement. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant investment in accessibility improvements.
