Samuel Heath’s Powermatic Free Swing controlled, concealed door closers have been used at a new £48 million state-of-the-art psychiatric care building at Royal Edinburgh Hospital.
The new facilities will provide accommodation for the adult acute mental health inpatient service, older people’s mental health assessment, Intensive Psychiatric Care Service and the new Robert Fergusson national brain injury unit.
Powermatic Free Swing door closers have been used on the main entrance doors to all 185 residential care rooms throughout the new building.
In addition to impressive fire and accessibility performance, the door closers are totally concealed when the door is closed, helping to create a more therapeutic, less institutionalised ambience to the interiors.
