Secure, Shielded Access Solutions for Medical, Industrial, and Nuclear Environments
Client Success Stories
Lead lined doors are a critical component in any radiation-shielded facility. Whether you’re managing a hospital imaging suite, an industrial testing lab, or a nuclear containment zone, properly constructed doors ensure that radiation remains safely enclosed—without compromising accessibility.
At Risdom Tech, we provide high-performance lead-lined doors designed to meet safety standards and fit seamlessly into your facility layout.
What Are Lead Lined Doors?
Lead lined doors are specially engineered doors with integrated lead sheets layered within the core and frame. They are built to block ionizing radiation such as:
- X-rays
- Gamma rays
- Other high-energy particles
They are commonly installed in environments where radiation exposure must be controlled without restricting access.
Where Are Lead Lined Doors Used?
1. Medical Imaging Facilities
- X-ray rooms
- CT & MRI suites
- Interventional radiology departments
2. Industrial Sites
- Non-destructive testing (NDT) labs
- Radiation inspection booths
- Shielded manufacturing zones
3. Nuclear & Research Centers
- Reactor buildings
- Hot cells and containment rooms
- Isotope storage areas
Each application may require a different lead equivalency and hardware configuration based on radiation intensity and room size.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much lead do I need in my door?
It depends on the room’s radiation intensity. Most medical doors use 1/16” (1.5 mmPb), while nuclear doors may require 1/4” or more.
Q: Can the doors be fire-rated?
Yes, we offer fire-rated lead lined doors that meet local building codes.
Q: Do you provide frames and hardware?
Yes. We supply complete door systems including frames, hinges, locks, and seals.
Q: What about automatic doors?
We offer both swing and sliding doors with automatic systems for hands-free operation.
