How PDQ Hardware Secured North Georgia Medical Plaza's Eight Specialty Offices
A multi-specialty medical facility in Dawsonville, Georgia needed door hardware durable enough for daily clinical traffic across eight distinct physician practices, while still meeting fire-rated code requirements on every exterior and interior egress door. PDQ's GT and MR Series locks, 6300 Series exit devices, and 7100 and 5300 Series closers now secure every opening in the building.
About the property
The North Georgia Medical Plaza brings a wide range of specialty care to the North Georgia area under one roof. The facility houses eight physician offices spanning Family Medicine, Heart and Vascular Care, Pain Management, an Eye Center, Dermatology, ENT and Allergy, Digestive Care, and a Pharmacy.
The Challenge
Eight different specialty practices sharing one building means eight different daily rhythms. The hardware spec had to hold up across all of it: physician offices, common areas, storage and utility rooms, and every interior and exterior door without delaying efficiency or sacrificing security.
The Solution
North Georgia Medical Plaza was outfitted with a coordinated PDQ hardware package built to flex across that mix:
North Georgia Medical Plaza opened in 2021 with a single coordinated PDQ hardware standard spanning eight specialty practices covering every office, common area, and utility room in the building.
