NFPA code on core-drilling doors

[Jason]

Does anyone know the code on core-drilling a fire rated door for
installing an electrified lockset or door strike? Does that same code
apply if you are installing a maglock and drilling through the door to
install the armeture? I searched through the NFPA
http://www.nfpa.org/index.asp but couldn't find it.

Thanks,
Jason

You could try contacting a local building inspector or fire chief...
