I've recently used the following so that only the clef and key signature appear at the first system.

Document Options > Clefs > Display Clef Only on First Staff System

Document Options > Key Signatures > Display Key Signature Only on First Staff System

I've also enabled left barlines using:

Document Options > Barlines > Left Barlines: > check Display on Single Staves

But, I'm wondering if it is also possible to also enable double barlines on the left side of the system.

From the Measure tool, select All, then double-click on any measure and pick Left Barline: Double. This will only affect barlines that begin a system.
