How early should specialty openings be identified?

As early as possible. Specialty assemblies usually carry longer coordination and engineering steps than standard openings.

What information do you need for a specialty quote?

The performance requirement (protection level, STC value, shielding requirement), the opening dimensions, the wall condition and the intended hardware.

Can specialty doors match the rest of the project's appearance?

In many cases yes. Tell us the finish and appearance requirement with the performance requirement so both are quoted together.
