Remediation - Manual Procedure

All secure room doors (*containing inspectable SIPRNet assets) must meet the following standards: 

1. The doors to the room (primary and secondary) shall be substantially constructed of wood or metal. 

2. For outswing doors, hinge-side protection shall be provided by making hinge pins nonremovable (i.e. spot welding) or by using hinges with interlocking leaves that prevent removal. There are certain hinge pins made with internal locking pins or locking flanges and are acceptable if they cannot be removed.
