by Safety Assured Find Best Door Safety Products

According to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), approximately 40,000 children encounter door-related accidents ending in finger trap injuries every year throughout the UK. In many instances, the injured children will live with impairment for the rest of their lives.

Whether you have a baby in the home or you run a school or a day-care centre, door safety products are a pragmatic solution to prevent finger trap injuries. That being said, considering the wide range of door safety products in the market currently, how can you find the right one to childproof your premises?

Whether you’re purchasing door finger guards, anti-door slam devices or hinge cavity products, you need to make sure they are durable and even a few years down the line, their mechanism and all the screws are still in place. It would be ideal if your door safety product is also supplied with a warranty. Of course, you would want them to be functional yet unobtrusive. There are many door safety products out there that are barely even noticeable when the door is closed. Not to mention, they are available in a wide range of colour options so you can choose one designed to match (or contrast) with the colour of your door.

Once door safety products are installed, the finger-trapping risk is instantly eliminated and you can rest assured that they will protect any fingers for many years to come.
