Healthcare Facility Solutions from DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards require building owners to have some egress doors and all fire and smoke doors inspected and tested annually.

The FireCheck® Program addresses a building owner’s legal obligation to properly maintain such doors. Certification of openings includes visual inspection, testing and a comprehensive report that complies with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and The Joint Commission regulations.

Occupied healthcare facilities must take special care to control environmental hazards by adhering to Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) protocols during and after construction projects.

American Association of Automatic Door Manufacturers (AAADM) certified inspectors provide annual inspections of sliding, swinging, revolving and bi-folding automatic doors.

First, inspectors perform visual inspections and functional testing. Then they provide an inspection report that addresses all the openings, as well as how to bring any deficient areas into compliance. DH Pace’s local technicians at Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™ can make any repairs necessary to ensure that all doors in a facility are certified.

Save substantial time and money with planned maintenance. In the long term, planned maintenance reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) by mitigating costly breakdowns and loss of time.

Extend the operating life and efficiency of all doors, gates, operators and dock equipment with scheduled visual inspections, testing, adjustments, and lubrication.

With years of experience and unmatched technical expertise, our professionals will help identify your ideal solution, from perimeter openings to restricted access control and special care units.

Sliding, Swinging, Bi-Folding, and Revolving Doors

Moving patients is a sensitive process. High-quality, well-maintained automatic doors are crucial to keep your operations running smoothly, especially when experiencing immense traffic.

Integrated Entry Doors

Well-designed, constructed and maintained corridors control the spread of fire and smoke. They also allow patients and staff to efficiently navigate hallways with ease before and after procedures. DH Pace’s local team from Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™ will inspect and maintain all cross-corridor system components. This can include doors and hardware, automatic operators, and even integrations with fire alarms and security systems.

Manual ICU Doors

Intensive care units present a unique set of concerns. With a variety of product options, the DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™ team will deliver expert healthcare solutions for any combination of ICU door requirements. Hardware products with anti-microbial coatings and touchless activation reduce direct contact with doors. This mitigates the risk of bacteria growth and spread of disease, while anti-static systems protect devices against electrostatic discharge in sensitive areas.

DH Pace, through our local team at Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™, consults with health care organizations on a local, regional and national basis to help them navigate the unique building material requirements in behavioral health care settings. Our experts can recommend the appropriate products and solutions to help protect patients from performing self-harm using patient room doors and to maintain CMS compliance.

Access Control

Security in a healthcare facility can be as essential as patient care itself. From staff access control to patient tracking and parking systems, DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™ will design a customized key and credential management system to match your healthcare facility’s specific needs. This application can also include the administration of documentation and records as required by The Joint Commission.

Entry Doors

Doors in constant use require planning for the correct hardware in order to mitigate risk. Carefully chosen hardware can even mean the difference between life and death. For example, emergency rescue hardware is invaluable if a patient falls behind an inward swinging door, just as anti-ligature hardware provides protection from self-harm in behavioral health applications.

Doors and Dock Equipment

Ambulance bays and loading docks are an essential component for healthcare facility operations. From transporting patients to receiving medical equipment and reducing contamination, DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Atlanta™ can help you identify the most efficient solutions and services for your healthcare facility. This can include doors, dock seals & air curtains to keep dirt and debris out. We can even advise on, install, and maintain specialized openings and equipment to support the lowest total cost of ownership.
