California Building Code Section 1010 governs door-locking hardware in Riverside County buildings, requiring single-motion egress, panic hardware in assembly uses, and limits on classroom or barricade devices.
Building and Safety inspectors enforce California Building Code Section 1010 for all door-locking hardware. Egress doors must unlatch with a single motion without keys, tools, or special knowledge. Panic hardware is required on assembly occupancies serving 50 or more, educational uses, and high-hazard occupancies. Classroom barricade devices marketed for active-shooter events may not impede egress, fire response access, or accessibility under California Building Code amendments. Electromagnetic locks must release on fire alarm, power loss, and request-to-exit. Schools must follow Department of State Architect rules layered on top.
Non-compliant locks, missing panic hardware, or unauthorized barricade devices trigger correction notices, citations, and possible certificate-of-occupancy holds during inspections.
