Shielding Doors for Radiation

Shielding doors for radiation are a crucial component in labs, hospitals, medical facilities, and industrial settings that handle radioactive material on a regular basis.

When properly installed and maintained, shielding doors block harmful emissions, preventing radioactive particles from spreading from one area to another, for the protection of personnel and the surrounding environment.

Because of the critical role they play in ensuring health and safety, shielding doors require regular maintenance to remain functional. Vortex service teams prevent leaks and weaknesses from compromising your operation by checking and servicing essential parts before they break and expose your facility to harmful emissions.

Our proactive approach identifies potential problems before they escalate into significant occupational hazards, allowing for timely repairs and replacements that optimize performance while also extending the lifespan of your doors. Our expertise extends to all aspects of shielding doors, including:

  • Radiation Seals. Seals prevent dangerous particles from leaking out through gaps in the frame. However, repeated use can damage their integrity, increasing the likelihood of leaks. To restore their function, Vortex teams remove the old seal and clean the area before replacing it to ensure proper containment of radiation.
  • Hinges. Loose, damaged, or misaligned hinges prevent doors from closing properly. Tightening and lubricating hinges allows doors to operate smoothly, while replacing worn screws, pins, and hinges ensures they maintain an effective seal.
  • Electronic Components. Faulty sensors, wiring, and control panels undermine the safe operation of radiation doors. Vortex teams inspect the door’s power supply, calibrate sensors, tighten loose connections, replace bad wires, and check for corrosion that could interfere with electronic communication.

Vortex works with businesses across a broad range of industries, ensuring their shielding doors remain an effective barrier against radiation. We have been providing best-in-class commercial door repair and maintenance services since 1937. Fast, reliable, and professional, our technicians are trained with the latest knowledge and equipment necessary to repair and upgrade doorways designed to contain hazardous materials.

I can't recommend Vortex Doors highly enough. We had a burglary happen at our business and the door was damaged. Vortex gave us a couple of options to repair it or replace it. We decided to try the more inexpensive route they recommended and the fix they did greatly exceeded my expectations. It flawlessly fits in with the rest of the door and no need to replace the whole door. I am impressed that they didn't try to upsell me and they offered this as an alternative. AJ showed up on time and was very professional. His skills are evident in the way he fixed the door. This is the third or fourth time we have had them out for various reasons and each time I am very satisfied with their work.
