Description

Doors are used everyday by everybody but they are potentially dangerous and according to RoSPA there are over 30,000 finger injuries every year.


Teachers, parents, and carers have become increasingly aware of the danger of children trapping their fingers in closing doors and to avoid accidents recent legislation BS7036 Part 4: item 7.1 recommends "the use of a finger defender that either fills the finger trap or minimises the gap so as not to create a finger trap.


Astro Finger Defender is a high quality, resilient blind that prevents fingers entering the cavity formed between the edge of the door and door frame. The blind is mounted in a robust aluminium housing unlike a concertina style blind, which is constantly exposed and can suffer damage as a result. A robust housing protects Astro Finger Defender when not in use.


Independently tested to over 1 million opening & closing cycles and prevents fingers entering the cavity formed between the door and the frame by means of an inflammable blind, which opens and closes with the action of the door.

The robust housing protects the blind when not in use. It has concealed screw fixings and comes complete with end caps for that even neater finish.
