The production process is related to the height and influences security. Sometimes, door locks, hinges and other hardware are hard to release. Corners and corners need to be rounded for transition; Screw welding and fixation can not be used around the door leaf, because the opening frequency of the hospital door is very high. If the screw is loose, there will be safety problems when placing the solder joint. Now, the high-end medical steel door basically has a bite structure, which can be used without separation. The door frame is embedded with a sealing buffer strip, which is convenient for later embedding.
