Security has become a higher priority for all kinds of institutional and commercial building, including healthcare facilities, according to an article from Facility Maintenance Decisions on the FacilitiesNet website.
As a result, maintenance and engineering managers are taking a closer look at all systems and components that play a role in protecting all facility occupants. This is especially true in the case of door and hardware systems, the entry and egress of choice for welcome occupants and intruders alike.
How can you leave the welcome mat in place and, at the same time, deter intruders? The process starts with effective inspection and testing procedures for door hardware, including locks, handles, hinges, and operators, and identifying common trouble spots related to door hardware.
Once facility managers have addressed these processes, they can put in place effective guidelines for maintaining and repairing these components to ensure peak system performance.
