Verify

Check a run you've wired against the known-good single-door topology. This is the verifier — separate from the reference builder.

This run

How is the lock controlled?

Pick how the lock is controlled before we check anything.

The correct wiring, the conductor count, and the fail state all depend on the lock topology. Choosing it first is the only way the checklist can mean anything — so we won't verify a run until you've told us how this lock is driven.

Before you wire this

Code and jurisdiction vary. Locking and egress requirements differ by edition and authority — NFPA 101, IBC, and your local amendments do not always agree. This reference confirms only that your wiring matches a known-good electrical topology. It does NOT confirm that the locking arrangement is permitted at this opening. Whether a lock may be installed here — and how it must release on fire alarm, loss of power, and egress — is determined by the Authority Having Jurisdiction and the stamped, approved fire and life-safety design for the building.

If you are unsure how this door must behave in an alarm or power-loss condition, stop and confirm with your foreman or the AHJ before energizing.
