Specifying door products that are durable enough to withstand the rigorous demands of high-traffic applications in the healthcare and hospitality industries is crucial to the long-term success of each installation. This course reviews traditional doorway materials and doorway protection options, and provides design solutions that utilize engineered polyethylene terephthalate (PETG) components that extend the life of the door assembly and minimize health and safety issues for the building occupants.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Define the components of door construction and the options of core materials, including lead-lined, bullet-resistant, and sound transmission class rated.
  • Identify the industry guidelines and performance standards related to door specifications that must be met to satisfy fire safety and the stringent demands of high-traffic applications.
  • State the causes and consequences of door damage, including harbored bacteria and compromised aesthetics and fire ratings.
  • Contrast the green features, durability, and performance of doors made with traditional materials versus engineered PETG, designed to withstand heavy facility traffic.
  • Discuss doorway design solutions and specification considerations that promote durability and longevity of door assemblies in healthcare and hotel environments.

Approximately 1 hour, 15 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
