Lead Lined Sliding Doors
Ray-Bar Industrial Lead-Lined Sliding Doors are custom manufactured to meet heavy lead requirements and weight capacity for sliding track and hardware in new and retrofit applications. These doors provide effective radiation shielding while offering a space-saving alternative to traditional swing doors. Ray-Bar's lead-lined sliding doors are built to meet shielding requirements while supporting the daily demands of healthcare and industrial environments.
Lead lined healthcare sliding doors are available in custom thicknesses for proper radiation shielding. All calculations for shielding requirements should be determined by a qualified health radiation physicist currently recognized by the state in which the project occurs. See Ray-Bar Industrial Type Lead Lined Doors Specification for more information.

Applications for Lead Lined Healthcare Sliding Doors
Healthcare facilities use lead-lined sliding doors to protect patients and staff from radiation in X-ray imaging rooms and radiation treatment areas. Sliding doors are ideal for rooms with limited space as they do not swing open and allow smooth and quiet operation. In emergency settings, sliding doors also allow quick and easy access for medical staff and equipment. Common applications for healthcare sliding doors include:
- X-ray and fluoroscopy rooms
- Cancer treatment facilities
- Dental offices
- Research and testing laboratories
