Fingershield Finger Protector 100° Brown
We all know that standard doors are a part of everyday life, but they often come with a hidden risk that we rarely think about until it is too late. The hinge side of a door can act like a trap when the door closes, especially for little ones who might not realise the danger. Whether you are managing a busy school corridor, a bustling nursery, or simply want to add an extra layer of security to your home, accidents involving fingers getting caught in hinges happen far more often than we would like to admit. It is a frightening thought for any parent or teacher, but the good news is that you can take simple, effective steps to stop it from happening.
The Fingershield Finger Protector 100° Brown offers a smart and reliable way to cover that dangerous gap. By creating a physical barrier that stops fingers from ever reaching the hinge area, you can rest easy knowing that your doors are much safer for everyone to use. It is designed to work seamlessly with your existing door setup without getting in the way of how the door opens or closes. For anyone looking to upgrade their safety standards, this product is a straightforward and practical choice that makes a real difference in high traffic areas.
Why Finger Safety Matters
It is easy to underestimate the power of a closing door, but the force generated at the hinge side is surprisingly strong. When a door moves, the gap between the door leaf and the frame changes, which creates a natural pinching point. This is where most accidents occur. For children, whose hands are smaller and more curious, this gap is a major hazard. According to RoSPA, studies have found that approximately 40,000 child safety door accidents occur every year throughout the UK. These are not just minor bumps, as they can lead to serious injuries that require urgent medical attention. By installing the right protection, you are not just adding a piece of hardware, you are investing in peace of mind.
The FG1 is therefore particularly suited to environments such as:
- Schools
- Nurseries
- Children's centres
- Primary schools
- Childcare facilities
- Hospitals
- Healthcare premises
- Care homes
- Public buildings
- Commercial properties
Designed for Seamless Integration
One of the best things about this protector is how discreet it looks once it is fitted. We know that nobody wants their interior design ruined by bulky or ugly safety gear. The brown finish is specifically chosen to blend in with wooden doors, dark frames, or even standard brown finishes. Because it has such a clean and unobtrusive look, it sits quietly in the background while doing its job. It is a fantastic option for both new building projects where you want to get the safety features right from the start, and for older buildings where you are retrofitting safety measures to meet modern standards.
Key Features of Your New Safety Guard
- The protector is designed to provide full coverage along the hinge side of your door to prevent accidental finger trapping.
- It comes in a standard length of 1960mm, which is perfect for most full height interior doors found in homes and commercial buildings.
- The dark brown colour ensures the unit blends in perfectly with wood grain or darker door frames for a tidy finish.
- It is engineered to accommodate doors that open up to a maximum angle of 100 degrees, keeping them functional while safe.
- You will find the system is very easy to incorporate into your existing door hardware without needing to replace your doors.
- This product is an essential addition for any environment where safety for children or vulnerable adults is a top priority.
Where to Use Your Finger Protector
You might wonder if your specific space requires this type of protection. In truth, any environment with high footfall or where children spend time can benefit from this upgrade. Schools and nurseries are the most obvious candidates, as they have constant movement throughout the day. However, offices, community centres, and healthcare facilities are also high on the list. If you run a care home, you know that safety is paramount for residents who might have limited mobility or awareness. Even in a busy family home, having these installed on internal doors can prevent those heart stopping moments when a toddler wanders too close to a closing door.
