Working on a Type IA construction residential project with a sprinkler system. If the entrance door is at the property line does it need to have a fire rating?
 
Welcome to the forum. If you find your answer, think of contributing by becoming a paid member.

You cannot have an opening within 3-ft regardless of construction type.

If I keep walking straight,,,,, where does that take me??

Middle of the street??

Or how far till I hit another building?
 
Can you explain that. If the exterior building wall is on the prop line ... no doors allowed?
 
Ok... a bit more of the picture now. If it is facing a public way or street, read through the following code section. If it is 3-ft to a property line where the adjoining parcel may be built upon, see the Table (cropped to only include 0-3 and 3-5).
