Bordon, Hampshire, UK — Specialist Door Solutions (SDS) has expanded its range of fire rated hospital doorsets with the introduction of Shieldoor® lead-lined, x-ray doors. Shieldoor® not only shields against harmful radiation but protects against the demanding and challenging environments within hospital and radiology facilities.
Shieldoor® is unlike any other lead-lined doorsets, as many existing products fail to meet expectations and market demands. With over 40 years in the industry, we have utilised our knowledge and expertise to design Shieldoor® with several unique features to exceed these demands. Our team’s in-depth knowledge and expertise underpins our entire product range including Shieldoor®.
Shieldoor® offers a seamless transition between our Dfendoor® and Lamdoor® ranges, meaning clients can have the luxury of a uniform design across their environment.
Shieldoor® was designed in consultation with several individuals within the healthcare sector including Radiation Protection Advisors (RPAs), healthcare designers and hospital estates and their input helped inform our design.
In addition, the doorsets successfully underwent fire testing under the BM Trada Q-Mark scheme achieving FD30 and FD60 certification.
Laurie Ware, Technical Manager, Specialist Door Solutions, commented:
“Shieldoor® is manufactured in our workshop located in Hampshire, using only the highest quality of materials and provides radiation shielding from Code 3 up to Code 8. The doors are pre-built, providing reassurance that the doorsets will meet the requirements of the RPA every time.”
He went on to say:
“By streamlining our processes, our highly skilled craftsmen can manufacture Shieldoor® in just six weeks.”
The team are already assisting clients with their schedules ensuring that Shieldoor® meets all of their requirements including key features such as, integrated warning lights and vision panels.
