Service for Healthcare Facilities in Kansas City

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. Overhead Door Company of Kansas City™ 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

In any healthcare facility, navigability can be crucial to patient outcomes. Both your staff and your patients should be able to efficiently and easily travel through hallways before and after procedures or appointments. DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Kansas City™️ can provide an in-depth inspection and/or maintenance of any and all cross-corridor components, including doors and hardware, automatic operators, and more.

Plus, a facility with well-designed, constructed, and maintained corridors can help control the spread of fire and smoke in times of emergency. That’s why our team also provides healthcare partners with fire alarm and security system integrations.

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 Kansas City™️, 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. From hardware products with anti-microbial coatings to touchless activation and even anti-static systems to protect devices against electrostatic discharge, we are well-versed in the solutions necessary to maintaining the integrity of sensitive areas.

There are a variety of unique building requirements to navigate when constructing a behavioral healthcare facility. Through our local team at Overhead Door Company of Kansas City™️, DH Pace often consults with healthcare partners to help navigate the unique challenges they face and recommend solutions to help protect both patients and staff. The appropriate doors and security systems can help maintain CMS compliance and, more importantly, protect patients from self-harm.

Access Control

Both external and internal security solutions are essential to the safety and efficiency of a healthcare facility. DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Kansas City™️ offer customized key and credential management systems that integrate patient tracking, parking systems, and staff access control. When necessary, our team can also include the administration and documentation/records required by The Joint Commission.

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 Kansas City™️, mitigating risk and minimizing interference is not only achievable—it’s our standard.

Doors and Dock Equipment

Another essential component of a healthcare facility is the ambulance bay and loading dock, which fulfills essential duties such as transporting patients, receiving medical equipment, and mitigating risk of contamination. By working with DH Pace and Overhead Door Company of Kansas City™️, our partners discover the most efficient and effective solutions for this mission-critical area. Our team provides advice, installation, and maintenance of these highly specialized openings. Where appropriate, we can also recommend specific doors, air curtains, and dock seals to keep dirt and debris out.

We see our healthcare facilities as partners. In this regard, we go above and beyond to ensure that our products and installation services are practical and cost effective in order to contribute to the lowest cost of ownership.
