How This Automation Works
New Commercial Installation Scheduled → Compliance Report Generated and Stored
Installation Data Capture
The system automatically collects installation details including door type, hardware specifications, mounting heights, clearance measurements, and location information when a commercial locksmith project is completed or scheduled for compliance review.
ADA Standards Verification
Installation specifications are automatically compared against ADA requirements for mounting heights, operating force, maneuvering clearances, panic bar specifications, and accessibility features to identify any compliance gaps.
Deficiency Identification
The system flags any non-compliant elements, categorizes violations by severity, generates detailed explanations of each deficiency, and provides specific corrective actions required to achieve compliance.
Report Generation and Distribution
A comprehensive compliance report is automatically created with findings, photographic documentation, corrective recommendations, and compliance status, then distributed to project managers, technicians, and customers as configured.
Corrective Action Tracking
For non-compliant installations, the system automatically schedules corrective work, assigns tasks to technicians, sets follow-up dates, and tracks remediation progress until full compliance is achieved and documented.
How It Works
Running a locksmith business requires ensuring all commercial installations meet ADA accessibility standards. Manual compliance tracking creates gaps in documentation and increases liability risk. This automation systematically checks installation specifications against ADA requirements for door hardware height, operating force, clearance spaces, and panic bar functionality. The system automatically flags non-compliant installations, generates compliance reports, schedules corrective actions, and maintains audit-ready documentation. By eliminating manual compliance verification, locksmith businesses reduce liability exposure, accelerate project completion, and demonstrate commitment to accessibility standards. Perfect for commercial locksmiths handling office buildings, retail spaces, healthcare facilities, and public institutions where ADA compliance is mandatory.
The Trigger
Activates when a commercial locksmith project is added to the schedule or when an installation is marked as complete, initiating the ADA compliance verification process to ensure all accessibility requirements are checked before final approval.
The Action
The system automatically evaluates installation specifications against ADA standards, creates a detailed compliance report highlighting any deficiencies, assigns corrective actions if needed, and archives documentation for future audits and customer records.
