ESCUTCHEON PLATES Sample Clauses
The Escutcheon Plates clause defines the requirements and specifications for the installation and use of escutcheon plates, which are protective or decorative covers typically used around pipe or cable penetrations in walls, floors, or ceilings. This clause may detail the materials, dimensions, finish, and placement of the plates to ensure a neat appearance and compliance with building codes. By setting clear standards for escutcheon plates, the clause ensures both aesthetic consistency and functional protection, preventing gaps that could allow fire, smoke, or pests to pass through, and thereby maintaining the integrity and safety of the structure.
