Sweetwater High School Fire Door Replacement Project

The Sweetwater Union High School District is soliciting firm fixed price bids for the replacement of five fire doors at Sweetwater High School in National City, California. The project is divided into three lots: Lot 1 covers the theater concession door, Lot 2 includes three doors at the administration side, and Lot 3 covers the administration reception door. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision to ensure the replacements meet NFPA 80 standards, the California Fire Code, and local Authority Having Jurisdiction requirements. Award will be based on the lowest total base bid. Key requirements for bidders include the submission of a bid security equal to 10 percent of the maximum bid amount and a Certificate of Reported Compliance from the California Air Resources Board. Contractors must adhere to prevailing wage obligations and ensure all personnel interacting with students obtain DOJ and FBI clearances. Technical deliverables include the performance of drop testing and the issuance of certification results for each door. Payment is processed monthly, with the district paying 95 percent of the verified work value within 30 days. Bids are due by November 19, 2026, with substitution requests required by November 3, 2026.
