As the new school year begins, ensuring the safety and security of our children and educators is a top priority for school administrators and facility managers.
At Seven Oaks, we understand the unique challenges that schools face when it comes to maintaining secure, accessible, and durable entryways.
With over three decades of experience, we specialize in providing top-quality doors and hardware tailored to the specific needs of educational institutions across North Carolina, South Carolina, and south central Virginia.
The Importance of Secure and Durable School Doors
School doors are more than just entryways; they are critical components of a school’s safety and security infrastructure. From the front entrance to classrooms, gymnasiums, and emergency exits, each door must meet stringent safety standards while remaining functional and easy to use. Properly installed and maintained doors can prevent unauthorized access, reduce the risk of accidents, and even help manage energy efficiency by maintaining climate control within the building.
One of the most pressing concerns for schools is ensuring that doors are equipped with the right hardware to support lockdown procedures and emergency responses. In the event of an emergency, doors must be capable of locking quickly and securely, yet still allow for safe and efficient evacuation when necessary. At Seven Oaks, we offer a wide range of high-quality hardware solutions, including advanced locking systems, panic bars, and access control systems that are designed to meet the highest safety standards.
Upgrading Old Infrastructure: Retrofitting for Modern Needs
Many schools in North Carolina are housed in older buildings, where door systems and hardware may not meet current safety codes or the demands of modern use. Retrofitting these doors with newer, more robust solutions is an essential step in enhancing school safety. Our team at Seven Oaks specializes in upgrading and retrofitting existing door systems to meet today’s stringent security and accessibility requirements.
We work with top brand-name door manufacturers and suppliers to ensure that our retrofitting projects deliver the highest quality results. Whether it’s replacing outdated locks with state-of-the-art access control systems or installing new doors that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing, our solutions are designed to withstand the daily wear and tear of a busy school environment while providing peace of mind to administrators, teachers, and parents alike.
Custom Solutions for Every School
No two schools are exactly alike, and each educational institution has its own set of requirements when it comes to door systems and hardware. That’s why we offer customized solutions that cater to the specific needs of each school we serve. Whether you need specialized doors for a new construction project or are looking to enhance the security of an existing building, our team will work closely with you to develop a plan that meets your exact specifications.
We understand the importance of balancing security with accessibility, ensuring that all students, including those with disabilities, have safe and easy access to all areas of the school. Our expertise in ADA-compliant hardware solutions ensures that your school meets all necessary regulations while providing an inclusive environment for every student.
Back to School: A Time for Safety
As students and teachers head back to school, now is the perfect time to assess and upgrade your facility’s door systems. Ensuring that every door is secure, functional, and up to date is a crucial step in creating a safe learning environment. At Seven Oaks, we are committed to helping schools across North Carolina achieve this goal. With our extensive experience and dedication to quality, we provide the solutions you need to protect what matters most—our children.

By partnering with schools to provide top-quality doors and hardware solutions, we’re playing our part in building a safer future for our communities.
