Types of Hospital Doors We Service
- Automatic Sliding Doors: Ideal for entrances and exits, these doors facilitate smooth traffic flow and offer ease of use for patients and staff.
- ICU Doors: Specially designed to support controlled environments, ICU doors play a crucial role in infection control and efficient space management.
- Swing Doors: Versatile and functional, swing doors are used in various hospital areas, offering both single and dual-directional opening options.
Revolving Doors: Providing excellent climate control and aesthetic appeal, revolving doors are an energy-efficient choice for hospital entrances.
Hospital Entrance Doors
Hospital entrances need doors that are reliable, accommodating, secure, and able to handle patients, staff, visitors, wheelchairs, gurneys, and equipment around the clock. The right system depends on traffic flow, available space, climate, infection-control needs, and emergency access.
- Automatic sliding doors: A practical choice for wide, high-traffic entrances. Sensors provide hands-free access and allow people and equipment to move through quickly.
- Automatic swing doors: Well suited to entrances where wall space is limited or an existing hinged opening is being upgraded for accessible, touch-free operation.
- Revolving doors: Help manage continuous pedestrian flow while limiting drafts and improving climate control and energy efficiency.
- Hermetic doors: Designed for spaces that require airtight sealing and controlled pressure, such as isolation, sterile, or other specialized clinical areas.
When comparing hospital entrance doors, consider opening speed, clear opening width, durability, automatic locking and security options, and the door’s ability to meet accessibility and life-safety requirements. Edelman-Lyon can help facility teams select, install, and maintain the right entrance system for the building and its daily operations.
