Listings

Tony Fallon with Tony Fallon Architecture shared that you probably only have architects refer to asbestos as adverse insulation to keep their liability carriers happy.  It is standard that adverse materials are managed via a prime contract between an owner and the adverse material removal company like Peniel.  The reason that ADA calls for lever sets versus door knobs is to allow a person with other than fully functioning hands to open a door.  Sometimes this can help those with arthritis.
