Radiation Shielding Doors

Radiation shielding doors 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, radiation 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.

Eric and Ismael were super kind and efficient. Another company installed a door at our warehouse, poorly, which caused us to shut our business down for a few hours. We called Vortex to come and fix the door for us, within an hour they were here and these guys knew what they were doing, fixed all the issues, and got us back in business quickly.
I really appreciate the professionalism, efficiency and knowledge.
