Help: Hardware - Hardware Sets

Hardware Sets

Hardware Sets are created and managed from the Hardware Set Editor in PRO-TECH TITAN.

Hardware Sets can be assigned to openings in your project. If a hardware set is not assigned to an opening it is considered to be a " Hardware-Only hardware set.

The left panel is used to display the Hardware Set(s) being edited along with the contents of the hardware set(s).

The right panel displays Hardware Items that have been added to your project and can be added to the hardware set being edited.
