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

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 and Overhead Door Company of Albuquerque™ technicians 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.

Revolving, Sliding, Swinging, and Bi-Folding, Doors

In areas experiencing high levels of incoming and outgoing traffic, high quality and well-maintained automatic doors are crucial to a smooth operational flow.

Integrated Entry Doors

Critical in controlling the potential spread of smoke and fire are well-maintained corridors, as they allow patients and staff to navigate hallways with ease. Overhead Door Company of Albuquerque™ technicians will inspect and maintain all cross-corridor system components, which can include doors and hardware, automatic operators, and even integrated fire alarms and security systems. Some options for your cross corridors include:

Manual ICU Doors

Not only does an Intensive Care Unit space need to be efficient, but it also must be safe and sanitary. DH Pace, together with Overhead Door Company of Albuquerque™️, is highly experienced in tackling the unique-but-critical operational challenges faced by our partners in healthcare. With a range of products, our team can offer expert solutions to keep direct contact with doors minimal—and therefore, the growth and spread of bacteria low.

With our customized security solutions for both the interior and exterior of the facility, Overhead Door Company of Albuquerque™ is able to help. As required by The Joint Commission, this application can also include the administration of documentation and records. Some of our options include:

Entry Doors

The importance of entry doors in a healthcare facility cannot be understated. These doors, which are in near-constant use, require sophisticated planning solutions in order to mitigate risk. Even the hardware of a door can make all the difference in patient outcomes. Emergency rescue hardware can prove essential should a patient fall behind an inward swinging door. Anti-ligature hardware can protect patients from self-harm in behavioral healthcare facilities. By working with the experienced team at DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Albuquerque™️, mitigating risk and minimizing interference is not only achievable—it’s our standard.
