16" x 16" BA-ALD-DF Anti-ligature Door With Drywall Bead Flange
Keeping people safe in mental health facilities, prisons, and other secure spaces is a big responsibility. Standard doors can be a risk, with edges, hinges, and locks that could be misused, leading to serious safety concerns.
The 16" x 16" BA-ALD-DF Anti-Ligature Door with Drywall Bead Flange is designed with safety and security in mind. Its tamper-resistant design removes potential risks, helping to prevent self-harm and unauthorized access.
Made from heavy-duty steel, it’s tough enough for high-traffic areas, while the gasketing around the frame helps reduce noise, making spaces feel calmer. Plus, with custom sizes available, it’s easy to get the perfect fit for your facility.
Why Choose the 16" x 16" BA-ALD-DF?
- Prevents Self-Harm & Tampering: Designed to eliminate ligature points and resist tampering, making spaces safer for at-risk individuals.

- Position the Door: Carefully place the 16" x 16" BA-ALD-DF Anti-Ligature Door with Drywall Bead Flange into the rough opening. Ensure the drywall bead flange sits flush against the surrounding wall or ceiling, ensuring a seamless, clean installation.
- Secure the Frame: Fasten the door frame to the wall or ceiling structure with the appropriate screws or fasteners. Double-check that the continuous piano hinge is properly aligned, allowing the door to open and close smoothly without obstruction.
- Finish and Inspect: Apply joint compound over the drywall bead flange to create a smooth, blended appearance with the surrounding surface. Once it dries, sand it down and paint as necessary for a clean finish. Test the key-operated latch and ensure the gasket seal.
