Design Ideas for Senior Living Facilities

ActivWall products add versatility to spaces in residential and senior living facilities. The operable wall units let in light, while ADA-compliant sills ensure a safe barrier-free environment for residents and caregivers. Here are some examples of how facilities across the nation are using our custom windows, walls, and doors.

A set of wood and frosted glass Horizontal Folding Doors was designed to connect the atrium and auditorium of this retirement community in Georgia. The unit has a 3L-3R configuration. 

The two center doors are opened for entrance to the space as French doors, and for larger events, all six panels can be opened to connect the two rooms.

Several sets of thermally-broken aluminum Horizontal Folding Doors were designed to connect the interior spaces of this Virginia retirement community with an outdoor patio. The units have a 2L-2R configuration and are floor mounted. 

When there is not enough structural support in a building’s header to install a top-hung system, we offer floor-mounted systems which support 90% of the unit’s weight at the base.

Our Sliding-Stacking systems were used for this retirement community in Virginia to divide a gathering space into smaller breakout rooms for small groups and workshops. 

Each segmented panel in the Sliding Stacking product is independent of the others, enabling the versatile doors to be used for straight or curved applications.
