• Locking requirements: Review the available latch and lock options to determine the level of security and access control needed for the application.
• Material selection: Consider optional 304 stainless steel construction where enhanced corrosion resistance is required.
• Door configuration: For oversized openings, consider the optional double-leaf design to better accommodate the opening dimensions and access requirements.

2. Install the BAC-HHD-110 into drywall or masonry walls using fasteners suitable for the wall construction.
