How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Choose packaging by build: heavy crate for large drums and wings; reinforced boxes for lighter KD metal segments. Add internal blocking to stop panel shift.
- Protect glazing: sleeve each lite, add edge guards, and keep glass vertical within the crate or box. Mark “Glass Enclosed” on two sides.
- Bundle hardware kits, pivots, and rails together and label piece counts on the BOL. Include a simple assembly map inside the top container.
- Book at Class 92.5 and list “revolving doors, metal, KD, boxed/crated, NMFC 34340” on paperwork to prevent reclass and inspection delays.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Fixed Class 92.5 rating reduces reclass risk and stabilizes LTL quotes across glazed and non-glazed versions.
- KD format trims oversize handling charges and opens more carrier options, especially for urban jobsite deliveries.
- Crate or box flexibility lets you balance cost and protection: crates cut damage claims; boxes lower packing spend for all-metal orders.
- Non-hazardous status speeds tendering and cross-dock movement, improving transit reliability on construction timelines.
