Steps

  1. Search BHMA's online Certified Products Directory by the specific ANSI/BHMA standard number or by manufacturer/product name.
  2. Confirm the exact model/series being specified appears as currently certified, not a similar or discontinued model from the same manufacturer.
  3. Note the directory is updated daily, so re-check certification status close to the submittal date rather than relying on a stale printout.
  4. Cross-reference the certified grade/level shown in the directory against the project spec's required grade.
  5. Retain a dated screenshot or export of the directory listing as submittal backup showing the product's certification status.
