Healthy Buildings

 

Infection control has long been a challenge in health care facilities but has increased even more in recent years.  Doors can be a contributing factor in high traffic areas where people frequently must touch the door or hardware to pass through.  However, there are door opening solutions that can help reduce the spread of germs, bacteria and viruses. 

  • Hands-free openings
  • Touchless openings
  • Antimicrobial finishes
Operating Room & ICU Doors

We know the intricacies of keeping a health care facility up and running—and that's why top hospitals partner with us to design unique, efficient, and most importantly, safe patient experiences. We have hospital doors that meet the demands of all areas of health care facilities including entrances, interior corridors, ICU/CCUs and isolation rooms, emergency rooms, and enhanced security integrations. With smoke-rated, positive and negative pressure-rated, and trackless configurations, our doors are a fitting addition to your health care facility.

Flexible Design in Exam Rooms

Patient-focused spaces need environments that are quiet, comfortable and maintain patient privacy and accessibility. Health care settings often have unique requirements such as smoke or fire ratings, lead shielding, air tightness and anti-microbial hardware. Sliding door solutions made especially for clinics, medical office buildings and other health care applications can save space and allow patients and health care workers to navigate the building with ease.
