Industry solutions

Be it for clinics, physician practices or nursing institutions: Innovative door, window and safety systems for health care

As varied as the requirements for health care facilities can be, they all have one thing in common: Safety, hygiene, accessibility and convenience are essential for all building users,– regardless of whether they are patients, nursing personnel or physicians. As an international company with extensive expertise in building planning and construction in the health care industry, we understand the requirements and regional regulations applicable to window, door and safety systems in hospitals or nursing institutions. We can advise you in every phase of your project and serve as your partner, starting with the planning of a new project, right up to the renovation of an existing building.

Hygiene

All about hygiene: Tight sealing sliding doors, non-contact electric strikes and healing architecture

Hygiene and the protection of everyone using a facility are the top priorities when in contact with particularly vulnerable groups. From practice offices to operating rooms or patient rooms – we offer state-of-the-art solutions for different requirements.

Hygienic Doors

Hermetic or tightly sealing sliding doors protect sensitive areas, such as operating rooms, from germs. Low-contact operation, easy hygienic cleaning and large opening widths ensure that everyday work remains safe and convenient.

Healing architecture

Well-designed building planning is essential in health care, to ensure the well-being of all building users. Employees, patients and residents benefit from a healing atmosphere.

Non-contact sensors are used whenever manual activation is required – for instance, for hygienic reasons – but needs to be non-contact.

Non-contact operation

Doors in indoor and outer areas can be used without contact, thanks to non-contact proximity switches and sensors. This improves hygiene in health care facilities and provides barrier-free access to all building users.

Convenience

Smart planning: convenience and accessibility for all building users

Convenience is highly important in health care and nursing facilities. On the one hand, personnel need functional and practical architecture for their everyday work processes; on the other, the environment also needs to be convenient, accessible and liveable for patients, residents and visitors. We offer you the right products and comprehensive consultation on convenience and optimising building processes.

Barrier-free access

A barrier-free environment in accordance with 18040-1 for accessible building improves quality of life for everyone. After all, everyone can benefit from improved accessibility. Sliding doors that open widely and hygienic, non-contact proximity sensors simplify everyday life and work in the health care sector.

Automatic ventilation

Natural ventilation, using automated windows, ensures an optimal indoor climate in hospitals and similar facilities, with low energy usage. This not only improves well-being and makes the indoor climate healthier; it also reduces the risk of infection by air-borne viruses.

The door closer offers optimum ease of access and blends perfectly into the overall surroundings with its minimalist design. The TS 5000 EFS 3-6 makes it possible to operate the door with little force thanks to its free swing function.

Low-noise environments

Self-locking doors can save lives in the event of a fire. They also impress with excellent convenience: Very quiet door closers, such as the GEZE TS5000 SoftClose, are the ideal choice for noise-sensitive areas, or to minimise the noise level for patients and employees.

Safety

Safety first: Safety in health care facilities

The safety of people and the building itself are particularly important in health care – after all, these requirements ultimately protect the lives of people in special need of protection. The exact safety requirements vary, depending on the type of health care facility (such as a hospital, surgery or nursing home) and local regulations. Our experts ensure that all relevant laws and standards are fulfilled.

Fire protection

Preventive fire protection saves lives in case of an emergency: Fire protection doors play a key role, as they prevent the fire from spreading. During normal operation, they offer barrier-free access, yet close reliably in the event of a fire. Our fire protection experts are happy to advise you on all of the fire protection regulations relevant for your building.

Building automation

Smart building automation increases safety and offers convenience, in addition to saving energy and (personnel) costs. A central building management control unit, for example, ensures access control for sensitive areas, keeps escape and rescue routes free from smoke in case of a fire, or monitors indoor air quality.

Sensors

Activation devices and sensors like photoelectric barriers, radar movement detectors or programme switches ensure sliding doors work safely and conveniently. The different product categories offer the right solution for any application. Let our experts advise you in line with your individual needs.

Energy efficiency

Optimising energy efficiency: Saving costs and protecting the environment

Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important for building operators, planners and architects alike. The good news: By implementing energy-saving measures, building operators at health care facilities can not only reduce costs; they also contribute to environmental protection.

Indoor air quality

Thanks to smart sensors and custom setting options, ventilation, using automated windows, is fully automatic. The heating system is turned down when the windows are open, and the windows close when it gets too cold. This improves the indoor climate and facilitates reducing heating and cutting energy costs.
