The particularity of a building varies depending on the purpose it is intended for. Buildings designed for medical care, such as hospitals, clinics, or laboratories, have controlled environment rooms. These spaces are meticulously designed to maintain specific environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, pressure, lighting, and air purity.

In this context, it is of utmost importance that the entrances and exits to these rooms ensure the preservation of the controlled environment, in order to prevent the entry of contaminating particles and maintain appropriate conditions.

When designing the entrances to these rooms, architects and builders often resort to installing automatic airtight doors. For example, in areas such as isolation wards and intensive care units (ICUs), automatic airtight doors allow precise control of the entry and exit of staff and supplies, maintaining a sterile and safe environment for patients. In addition, these doors become critically important in quarantine and infection control areas, where unauthorized access could put public health at risk.

Automatic doors improve hygiene in hospitals
