Secure Door & Access Solutions for Mental Health Institutions
Sensitive Environments Require Specialized Expertise
In behavioral health facilities, doors aren’t just points of entry — they are critical to patient safety, staff protection, and regulatory compliance. At Wagner Door and Security, we specialize in delivering turnkey commercial door and access control solutions that meet the unique demands of mental health institutions across Virginia.
From psychiatric hospitals and residential treatment centers to secure outpatient clinics, we help create safer environments with
fast, secure, and compliant service.
Why Mental Health Facilities Rely on Wagner
Because we understand what's different.
Carl Wagner, the founder of Wagner Door and Security, has responded to urgent requests from behavioral health hospitals where access control failures compromised patient and staff safety. Our experience in these high-stakes environments means we don’t just install doors — we solve real problems with precision, urgency, and accountability.
We’ve handled jobs where access control systems failed at inpatient psych wards — and the call wasn’t about a door; it was about restoring control to a vulnerable space.
