1、 The core features of steel ward doors are:
1. Material advantages
-High strength steel plate: Usually hot-dip galvanized steel plate (thickness 1.5mm-0.8mm) is used, which has strong impact resistance, anti-collision and anti damage properties.
-Fire resistance performance: Some steel doors can meet the Class A/Class B fire resistance standards (fire resistance time of 1-2 hours) and meet the hospital's fire safety requirements.
-Antibacterial coating: Surface sprayed with antibacterial powder or epoxy resin to inhibit bacterial growth, suitable for medical environments.
2. Sealing performance:
-Install rubber sealing strips between the door frame and the door leaf to prevent dust, sound insulation, and aerosol penetration (especially suitable for isolation wards).
3. Easy to clean design:
-The surface is smooth and seamless, and can be directly wiped with disinfectant to avoid residual stains.
2、 Functional classification and applicable scenarios:
|Type | Functional Features | Applicable Scenarios|
|Ordinary steel ward door | Basic anti-collision and sound insulation, with observation window (transparent glass or acrylic) | Ordinary ward and nurse station|
|Airtight steel door | High airtightness design to prevent air cross contamination | Isolation ward, laboratory, negative pressure ward|
|Fireproof steel door | Passed national fire certification (such as GB 12955-2008) | Staircase, pharmacy, equipment room|
|Radiation resistant steel door | Embedded lead plate or special shielding material to block X-rays and other radiation | Radiology department, CT room, nuclear medicine examination room|
3、 Key design details
1. Observation window design
-Standard configuration includes double-layer tempered glass or explosion-proof acrylic, typically measuring 200mm x 900mm, making it convenient for medical staff to check indoor conditions.
2. Door locks and hardware accessories
-Antibacterial door handle: made of copper or stainless steel to reduce the risk of contact infection.
-Escape function: Some doors are equipped with emergency escape locks (push bar type), which comply with fire safety regulations.
3. Accessibility design
-Door opening width ≥ 1200mm, convenient for wheelchair and hospital bed access.
-Threshold height ≤ 5mm, or adopt a threshold free design.
4、 Precautions for selection and installation**
1. Compliance certification
-Must comply with the General Technical Requirements for Medical Doors (GB/T 34616-2017) and fire and antibacterial standards.
2. Customization requirements
-Customized according to the size of the door opening (common sizes: 2100mm × 1000mm/1200mm/1500mm).
-Optional single open, double open, or parent-child door structures.
3. Installation points:
-The door frame needs to be firmly connected to the wall (fixed with expansion bolts and filled with foam adhesive).
-The airtight door needs to adjust the pressure of the sealing strip to ensure a tight closure.
5、 Maintenance suggestions:
-Regularly check the lubrication of the hinge to prevent abnormal noise from the switch.
-Avoid corrosion of surface coatings by strong acid and alkali cleaning agents.
6、 Compared with other materials for the door:
|* * Material * * | * * Advantages * * | * * Disadvantages * * | * * Applicable Scenarios * *|
|Steel doors | High strength, fire-resistant, antibacterial | Heavy weight, requiring rust prevention treatment | Areas with high protection requirements (such as wards/isolation wards)|
|Wooden door | Lightweight and beautiful | Easy to get damp and not resistant to impact | Ordinary clinic and office area|
|Glass composite door | Good transparency, strong modernity | Weak sound insulation/fire resistance | Outpatient hall, observation room|
