Exterior Cipher Locks and Exit Hardware Retrofit, Hawaii

The Department of Defense is issuing a pre-solicitation notice for the retrofit of exterior cipher locks and exit hardware at Schofield Barracks, Building 768, in Hawaii. This small business set-aside project, identified by solicitation W912CN27QA010, requires the installation of 17 fully operational cipher locks and exit devices for the 125th Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Battalion. The scope of work includes the provision of 12 DoD-approved 10-PIN cipher locks with PowerStar self-powered technology, 20 heavy-duty surface vertical locking bars, 5 mechanical/electronic mortise locksets, and a combination of standard and custom bullet-resistant dress plates. Additionally, the contractor must fabricate nine custom tailpieces for bullet-resistant doors and provide three sequentially stamped master override keys and two control keys, all marked as US Property. All installation, core pinning, and alignment work must be performed by GSA-certified lock technicians to ensure compliance with DoD physical security and NFPA 101 life safety egress regulations. Key technical requirements include the application of rust-inhibiting primer to prevent tropical marine corrosion and the assurance that vertical rods show zero drag on floor thresholds. Final acceptance involves a joint functional inspection conducted by the contractor and the Battalion Facility Manager, with deliverables being accepted at the 125th IEW BN and the Schofield Barracks DPW Key Control Facility.
