Division 08 by Design

Division 08 by Design is a two-day, hands-on working session dedicated entirely to the systems, decisions, and coordination that shape door, frame, and hardware outcomes in the built environment.

This conference brings together architects, specification writers, manufacturers, consultants, and contractors for focused collaboration across the full Division 08 lifecycle, from early design intent through documentation, coordination, and long-term performance. The emphasis is practical and applied: real assemblies, real constraints, and real project conditions.

Attendees will engage in guided working sessions, technical discussions, and peer exchange centered on how Division 08 is specified, evaluated, coordinated, and supported in practice. Topics include documentation strategy, code application, material performance, sustainability considerations, and the interdependencies between design, manufacturing, and installation.

Rather than passive learning, Division 08 by Design is structured as an active forum, a place to sharpen judgment, align language, and strengthen the technical foundation that supports safe, durable, and well-performing openings.
