The north entrance of the Capitol, with its level adjacent grounds and projecting portico, was modified to serve as the accessible entrance to the Capitol in the 1995 restoration. In-floor door operators have provided push-button operation of the large, historic, exterior doors.
The obsolete hydraulic door operators--more than 50 years old--were no longer able to be maintained. They are being replaced with modern electric operators. Extensive research confirmed that the larger motors could be accommodated safely within the historic construction.
This work will be complete in time for the 2027 Legislative Session in January.
