PRODUCTS FOR LIGATURE REDUCTION

The Coborn Centre for Adolescent Mental Health selected our anti-ligature en-suite bathroom doors as, finding it the only solution to balancing safety with patient privacy and dignity.

A mixture of old locks and handles needed replaced due safety concerns with clutched cylinders and the insufficient grip some older handles offered service users. They chose our 5-way SOS (Staff Override System) anti-barricade locksets and Pinch grip anti-ligature handles throughout.

When Newbridge House was being refurbished they wanted bathroom fittings that offered superior safety whilst also creating a homely and welcoming environment. That's why they chose our load release fittings, minimising the ligature risk whilst looking like traditional bathroom fittings.

As part of an ongoing capital improvement program, the trust replaced 100 of their existing wedge-shaped push button anti-barricade stops with our retrofit anti-barricade stop – enabling them to overcome the limitations of push button stops, which can fail to operate if there’s internal pressure.
