KINGSPARK ADDITIONAL SUPPORT NEEDS SCHOOL
Dundee City Council

When Kingspark Additional Support Needs School in Dundee was being rebuilt, they were looking for the best door finger guards for schools. By installing Alumax integral finger guards, they benefit from saving over £100,000 in maintenance costs. The designers praised Alumax for being "aesthetically neat, unobtrusive and effective".

LIMITATIONS OF OTHER FINGER PROTECTORS

Plastic Finger Guards

Plastic guards covered the gap between the door and frame.
In domestic environments, they're safe and do the job.
However, they're not durable enough in high-traffic areas,
like schools or retail environments:

They crack and split
They are a maintenance liability
Feedback is that they look cheap and obtrusive

Rubber Finger Guards

Flexible rubber door hinge covers are hard-wearing and tough.
Visually, they cover the door hinge. However, a finger can still
be inserted in the gap with enough force.

It doesn't solve the larger problem
They are highly visible (usually in bright contrasting colours)
They gather dust and grime - presenting additional cleaning and hygiene considerations

Roller Blind Finger Gaurds

The single roller blind uses fabric tension to resist fingers pushing into the gap.
And when you consider the cost of hinges, the roller blind finger guard, and the fitting,
the price is similar to our integral finger guard – which designs out the problem,
offering superior safety and aesthetics. Roller gaps are inferior, as they:

Just hide the gap
They affect the opening force
They are a costly compromise
