By installing touchless door activation devices on your doors, you’re eliminating the need to touch extremely vulnerable and commonly touched items such as handles, push bars and other access methods. This helps eliminate cross contamination and reduce the spread of healthcare-associated infections. As germs grow more aggressive and resistant to antibiotics and other treatments, it’s imperative to safeguard your facility as much as possible. Touchless activation plates are an extremely effective way to do this. ![Nearly 80% of sickness causing germs spread via hands](https://www.easterslock.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/hands-1024x674.png) ## **Uses** #### Healthcare Environments ![Commercial Door Entries Easter's Lock & Security Solutions](https://www.easterslock.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/LawyerBlog.png) Upgrade existing push plates to touchless actuators anywhere spreading germs is a key concern. From the waiting room to the ICU, patients, clinicians and visitors can be exposed to harmful germs and bacteria when good hand-hygiene practices fail. This can be critical for patient safety and care and in worst cases, lead to HAIs. #### Clean Room Environments ![Hospital Security Easter's Lock & Security Solutions](https://www.easterslock.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/healthcare2-1024x682.jpeg) Reduce touch-points throughout a facility in order to reduce your opportunities to spread germs and bacteria by hand. Cleanroom settings require strict standards be followed to maintain the integrity of the environment’s sterilization. By removing traditional door handles and automating doors with touchless activation, you minimize the risk of cross-contamination via touch. #### Industrial Environments ![Industrial Security Easter's Lock & Security Solutions](https://www.easterslock.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/industrial.jpg) Busy industrial facilities can contain a number of touch-points, increasing the likelihood of separating germs and bacteria throughout a facility. By upgrading to touchless activation in place of pull cords and push plates, you reduce the surfaces susceptible to harboring these and other potential contaminants. #### Commercial / Retail Environments ![Retail Security Doors Easter's Lock & Security Solutions](https://www.easterslock.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/retail.jpg) Enhancing accessibility and user experiences in commercial and retail environments can increase traffic and improve pedestrians’ interactions within these facilities.
