Definitive statistics on the number of annual finger crush incidents which occur in the UK are difficult to determine . Many go unreported but they contribute to one of the most frequent workplace injuries . It ’ s also been identified that between 30,000 and 50,000 finger crush incidents per year involve children . Many require hospital treatment and some result in partial amputation of fingers or permanent nerve damage .
Fitting finger guards on the hingeside of doors prevents fingers being accidentally trapped . Health and safety experts recommend fitting finger protection and door stops to help prevent accidents . Most of our roller blind system devices incorporate a strong flame retardant fabric which extends or retracts under tension to cover the gap between the door and the frame .
All our products have an easy-clean aluminium housing and many are tested to 1,000,000 operations and comply with EN16005 , EN16654 , BS8613 and the German Safety Mark . built environment , which is why our finger protection devices provide the ideal finishing touch . Most of them are available in standard finishes - Satin Anodised Aluminium ( SAA ), White ( RAL 9016 ) or Dark Bronze Anodised ( DBA ) but other RAL colours and anodised finishes are available as a special to order item .
This means our finger protection sits in complete harmony with its environment – it doesn ’ t have to stand out like a sore thumb to prevent one ! Most of us will have been through the doors of a popular fast food chain or high street store – companies that have been using them for many years – and probably never noticed them . And yet , they are fixed to entrances and fitting rooms , powder coated to colour match their frames - hidden in plain sight .
