Cleanroom Doors

To Suit Your Needs

If you can see it, you can clean it: Plascore Pharma doors and windows feature easily cleaned hardware. Plascore Pharma offers two lines of single and double cleanroom door types designed specifically for pharmaceutical environments.

Aluminum Profile Cleanroom Doors

Crafted in custom aluminum extrusions with double perimeter seals and optional door bottom drop seal, this Plascore Pharma door design features a flush jamb and leaf assembly. Available with upper and optional lower flush glazing and finished with an epoxy powder coat for maximum durability and chemical resistance, this cleanroom door style is the most economical solution for less stringent classification areas. Installation into any of Plascore Pharma wall systems, with at least one side of the door frame and door leaf being flush with the adjoining wall surfaces, is readily accomplished utilizing one of Plascore’s proprietary fastening methods.

Stainless Steel / Powder Coated Metal Doors

Pharmaceutical cleanroom door frames and leafs are clad in stainless sheet metal for the most damage- and chemical-resistant performance. Door faces are laminated to a honeycomb core for structural stiffness, providing the most monolithic design without seams and ledges, flush with at least one surface of adjoining cleanroom walls. Cleanroom windows can be sized up to 50% of the door surface, flush with both leaf surfaces. This leaf design is well-suited to allow air passage around its perimeter. This style is also available with a powder coated aluminum skin.

Door Hardware

Plascore Pharma cleanroom doors can be delivered with most standard mortised or surface mounted hardware to meet customer requirements. Surface mounted hardware is preferred for easy access, adjustment and cleaning. Cleanroom door hardware can be provided to meet your specific needs and functions:
• Stainless steel push/pull bars
• Mortised door locksets and strikes, with door handles or magnetic interlock
• Surface mounted door closers
• Surface mounted electric door operators
• Internal double door extension bolts

Flush Double Glazed Cleanroom Windows

Plascore Pharma cleanroom window units for doors and studless walls consist of two panes of 1/4″ (6.4mm) tempered glass, bonded and sealed to an aluminum frame filled with desiccant to reduce moisture. Windows have the same thickness as the door/wall, providing a flush installation. Cleanroom window units are replaceable in nonprogressive systems, can be adjusted with leveling bolts and are sealed with a silicone caulk. Windows for utility and liner walls are typically single pane on an aluminum frame, installed flush with a silicone caulk seam.

 

Clean Room Doors

When it comes to Clean Room Automatic Sliding Doors, the two most important things to know are the cleanliness rating (ISO 3, ISO 5, ISO 7 are common, lower rating is better) and whether the spaces are going to be pressurized or not.

It is also important to understand the difference between well-sealed sliding doors, clean room sliding doors and doors that are rated for both. STANLEY Access Technologies offers Clean Room Certifications on our Dura-Glide 2000/3000 Series and Dura-Glide 5200/5300 Series automatic sliding doors. We offer Clean Room Certification (with Isolation Package) and Leakage Rating on our ProCare 8300A automatic ICU door, making it both clean and well-sealed. 

Airlocks & Interlocks - Cleanrooms Doors

Mecart offers several clean room door and window options, ranging from our famous Teardrop Shape Window to the conventional rectangular rounded-corner-shape. Our specialists can help you determine which type of doors and windows will best suit your purpose.

Cleanroom Door Options

Mecart-made clean room doors can be configured as single or double swing doors (manual or motorized) and can be 100% customized. Sliding doors and high speed rollup doors are also available. All doors are airtight, easy to clean with smooth surfaces as well as corrosion resistant.

Doors are important in cleanroom design. Their role is not limited to the access of personnel and merchandise. Door vision panels are important to see obstacles, for supervising personal, monitoring processes and maximising natural light.

Airlocks & Interlocks

To maintain cleanroom pressure differentials, passage should be through airlocks (and ideally controlled by interlocks). Airlocks are mostly used for the coming and going of personnel in gowning and degowning areas and material transfer airlocks. Our wall panel and door system can easily be configured with an interlock system, with two subsequent sets of doors, each opening separately with airspace between them. Interlocks prevent potential particle migration between two clean rooms which happens when two doors are accidentally opened at the same time.
