From hospital administration floors to primary care exam rooms — HAMILTON manufactures precision casework that meets ADA requirements, supports infection control, and installs on schedule. Trusted by NYU Langone, Oak Street Health, and healthcare facilities across the country.
HAMILTON manufactures custom casework for every area of a healthcare facility — from administrative staff lockers to clinical exam rooms to front-of-house reception desks. Each project is designed to the exacting tolerances healthcare environments demand.
Hospital administration and clinical staff need secure, functional storage that fits the way they work. HAMILTON designs and builds counter-height locker systems — including alternating panel-and-locker runs, double-sided access, and integrated coat hooks — for environments where precision fit and clean aesthetics both matter.
Exam room casework must satisfy ADA requirements, infection control protocols, and the realities of a busy clinical environment — all while looking clean and professional. HAMILTON's exam room casework is designed from the floor to the ceiling with these demands in mind, coordinating with modular walls, plumbing, and data throughout.
Reception desks in healthcare facilities do more than make a first impression — they manage patient check-in, power clinical devices, and control building access. HAMILTON designs custom reception and nurse station casework with the power, data, and security features healthcare operations require.
NYU Langone Health renovated two floors of hospital administration space in New York City — and the standard product catalog wasn't going to cut it. The design called for 20 to 30 multi-functional countertop huddle spaces with integrated lockers distributed across both floors, and every run had to fit precisely between structural floor columns.
The challenge was column-to-column precision. Countertops ran end-to-end between existing floor columns — each span a different measurement — and the casework had to match exactly. Off-the-shelf locker products couldn't accommodate the variation. HAMILTON's manufacturing precision and willingness to build to field measurements made the difference.
The locker design itself was purpose-built for the environment. Counter-height lockers were sized to fit a full winter parka — a non-negotiable in New York — with mechanical locks and interior coat hooks. Rather than grouping lockers side by side, the design called for alternating panels and lockers along each run, creating a cleaner visual rhythm when walking down the aisle.
Each countertop run also incorporated double-sided storage — accessible from both faces of the countertop — and integrated trash and recycling receptacles within the same unit. Overhang knee space under the countertop allowed staff to stand or sit for impromptu meetings at the huddle surfaces.
The project came to HAMILTON through Empire, a furniture dealer who recognized that the column-to-column complexity required a manufacturer with genuine precision capabilities. They trusted HAMILTON — and the installation delivered.

Oak Street Health, in partnership with Walmart Health, brought a bold clinic concept to the Dallas-Fort Worth market — primary care clinics designed around MMA Architects' patented "Hyperpod" layout that reduced the linear footage of the traditional clinical corridor by up to 35%. The architecture was innovative. The FF&E package needed a manufacturer who could make it buildable.
HAMILTON took the architect's specification and filled the gaps. On the first walkthrough, HAMILTON's team noticed soft-close hinges were missing from the spec — a small detail that would have caused problems at installation. HAMILTON overnighted the hardware and had it installed before the next walkthrough. That pattern of proactive gap-filling defined the relationship throughout the project.
The scope covered exam rooms, reception desks, blood labs, and break rooms. Exam rooms were designed for ADA compliance throughout — counters with integrated solid-surface sinks fabricated without seams at the sink joint, eliminating crevices where bacteria can collect. Slope tops on overhead casework minimize horizontal dust surfaces and speed daily cleaning. A removable front panel under each sink provides plumbing access without disrupting the countertop.
Every installation ran on a one-week-per-space schedule — fast, predictable, and cost-reducing. Pre-coordination of casework with modular walls, plumbing rough-in, ceiling work, and data was essential: the floor was leveled, items were run through the ceiling, modular walls were erected, and then HAMILTON casework was set — each trade in sequence, none waiting on another.
All products carry GREENGUARD Gold certification for indoor air quality and low emissions, and materials are FSC certified under HAMILTON's chain-of-custody certification (FSC-C110583). OSHPD certified components are available as specified.
Every exam room met ADA compliance requirements — knee clearance, accessible reach ranges, and full coordination of plumbing and blocking through modular wall systems.
Counters with integrated solid-surface sinks were fabricated without seams at the sink joint — eliminating the crevices where bacteria collect and simplifying daily cleaning protocols.
Pre-coordinating casework with modular walls, plumbing, and data rough-in enabled HAMILTON to install each clinical space in one week — predictable, cost-reducing, and on schedule.
Soft-close hinges were missing from the original FF&E spec. HAMILTON caught it on walkthrough, overnighted the hardware, and had it installed before the next site visit — one example of filling spec gaps before they become field problems.
HAMILTON healthcare casework carries the certifications healthcare procurement teams, infection control officers, and sustainability coordinators require — not as special-order options, but as standard across our product lines.
GREENGUARD Gold certification confirms that HAMILTON casework products meet strict chemical emission limits for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) — supporting safe indoor air quality in occupied clinical and administrative spaces. This is the highest GREENGUARD certification tier and the standard most healthcare IAQ specifications require.
HAMILTON holds FSC chain-of-custody certification (FSC-C110583), ensuring that wood-based materials in our casework products are sourced from responsibly managed forests. FSC certification supports LEED and sustainable design credits for healthcare facilities pursuing green building recognition.
For California healthcare projects subject to review by the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development, HAMILTON can provide OSHPD-certified components as specified. OSHPD certification ensures casework components meet California's seismic and structural standards for acute care and skilled nursing facilities.
Healthcare casework must do more than look clean — it must be genuinely easier to keep clean, and it must not harbor contaminants. Every HAMILTON healthcare casework decision is evaluated for how it performs under real clinical cleaning protocols.
Countertops and sinks are fabricated as a single solid-surface unit without a seam at the sink joint — eliminating the crevice where bacteria, biofilm, and cleaning product residue accumulate in traditional undermount sink installations.
The tops of upper casework units are specified with a forward slope rather than a flat horizontal surface — minimizing the area where airborne particulates and dust settle, and making any accumulation visible and easy to wipe during routine cleaning.
The front panel beneath the sink is designed to be removed for plumbing access without disturbing the countertop or adjacent casework — enabling maintenance and repair without disrupting clinical operations or triggering a partial renovation.
All materials in HAMILTON healthcare casework — laminates, adhesives, substrates — are selected to meet GREENGUARD Gold emission limits, ensuring that the casework itself does not contribute to degraded indoor air quality in patient care and clinical staff areas.
Proper knee clearance under sinks and work surfaces, accessible reach ranges, and smooth transitions between surfaces ensure that ADA requirements are met while also supporting the mobility and workflow of clinical staff using casework throughout a busy shift.
Laminate and solid-surface specifications are selected for chemical resistance to standard healthcare disinfectants — including quaternary ammonium and bleach-based products — without surface degradation over the life of the installation.
Yes. ADA compliance is a core design requirement for HAMILTON's healthcare casework — not an option or upgrade. Exam room casework includes proper knee clearance under sinks, accessible reach ranges, and full coordination of plumbing and blocking to meet ADA standards. Every healthcare project is reviewed against applicable ADA guidelines during both the design and manufacturing phases.
HAMILTON's healthcare casework products carry GREENGUARD Gold certification for low chemical emissions and indoor air quality, FSC certification (FSC-C110583) for sustainably sourced materials, and OSHPD-certified components are available as specified for California healthcare projects. These certifications are standard across our healthcare product lines — not project-by-project add-ons.
Yes — and we do it regularly. HAMILTON's team reviews FF&E packages closely and fills specification gaps before they become field problems. On the Oak Street Health project in Dallas-Fort Worth, HAMILTON took the architect's FF&E package and made it buildable — identifying specification gaps like missing soft-close hinges during the design phase and resolving them before they reached the job site. We coordinate casework with modular wall systems, plumbing, electrical, and data throughout the entire process.
HAMILTON specifies solid-surface countertops with integrated sinks — fabricated without seams at the sink joint, eliminating the crevice where bacteria and biofilm collect in traditional undermount installations. Slope tops on overhead casework minimize horizontal dust collection surfaces and speed daily cleaning routines. Removable access panels under sinks enable plumbing maintenance without disruption. All surfaces are selected for resistance to standard healthcare disinfectants, and GREENGUARD Gold certification confirms low chemical emissions throughout the life of the installation.
On the Oak Street Health clinic buildout in Dallas-Fort Worth, HAMILTON completed installation in one week per clinical space. Because the majority of construction happens in HAMILTON's US Midwest factory — not on the job site — on-site installation is fast, predictable, and cost-reducing. Pre-coordinating casework with modular walls, plumbing, and data rough-in before delivery is a core part of how HAMILTON installations consistently run on schedule in active healthcare construction environments.
