Baby-proofing the doors with finger guards
Lively, reckless, curious, and brimming with zest – children are undaunted explorers. Unfortunately, this same excitement for life can easily result in accidents. Young children often grip and feel their surroundings, so when they are near a closing doorway, they are at risk of suffering severe injuries such as crushed and fractured fingers or fingertips. Each year, tens of thousands of kids trap and crush their fingers in doors both at home and in public places such as school, shops or clinics. Trapped finger injuries can be very excruciating and terrifying for the kid – and an even more nerve-racking experience for the parent.
The good news is, despite being a very critical hazard, door-related finger injuries are unusually simple to avoid with door finger guards. As the name suggests, finger guards or hinge guards can effectively prevent traumatic finger injuries on the hinge side of the door. This straightforward preventive measure blocks doors slamming shut on fingers, eliminating finger trapping injuries. Door finger guards are also simple and quick to install with no tools or screws required. On top of that, finger guards are unobtrusive and can discreetly fit in all of your doors at home. Door finger protection products can be installed anywhere the child is likely to get into contact with closing or slamming doors
So, what are you waiting for? Set up door hinge guards to all the doors in your residence and rest assured that your kids are safe from extreme caught finger injuries.
