Product Overview
Ultraray’s lead lined doors and frames are engineered for radiation shielding applications requiring dependable protection, structural durability, and long-term performance. Commonly used in X-ray rooms, CT suites, PET/CT facilities, nuclear medicine departments, industrial radiography installations, and research laboratories, these shielding systems help maintain continuous radiation protection across controlled access points.
Doors are available in both wood and steel construction with lead thicknesses ranging from 1/32″ to 1/8″. Standard veneer options include Birch, Red Oak, and plastic laminate finishes, while steel door configurations are recommended for heavier shielding applications exceeding 1/8″ lead thickness.
All standard door slabs are 1¾” thick and can be prepared for cylindrical locksets when supplied with matching lead lined frames. Ultraray’s standard continuous hinge system helps support precise alignment and smooth long-term operation in high-use environments.
Lead lined frames are fabricated from 16-gauge cold-rolled steel with optional heavier 12- or 14-gauge construction available for more demanding applications. Frames are available in both knock-down (KD) and welded shielded configurations to accommodate varying installation requirements.
Shipping options are as follows:
- Door shipped alone
- Door and frame, but we never just ship the frame
*Packaged with hinges, but never pre hung.

Built with High-Purity Sheet Lead
Ultraray manufactures lead lined doors and frames using our own 99.9% pure sheet lead and lead rolls to help ensure dependable radiation shielding performance and long-term product durability.
Our high-purity sheet lead for radiation protection is commonly integrated into shielding doors, frames, walls, ceilings, and custom fabricated assemblies throughout medical, nuclear, industrial, and security environments. By maintaining a large in-stock inventory of sheet lead and lead rolls at our Oakville, Ontario facility, Ultraray supports fast production timelines and custom fabrication capabilities for projects across Canada and the United States.
Lead lined door systems are often integrated alongside lead lined drywall, lead lined plywood, lead glass shielding, and custom sheet lead components to create complete radiation protection environments.
