Robust metal bead for vision panel – Non-institutional and fire rated

ROBUST METAL VISION PANEL (SUREVIEW)

Thanks to our passion for feedback, we see things the way our customers do. That’s why we designed a robust metal vision panel with no visible metal fixings on the bedroom side – just like the inside of a front door at home.

The robust metal bead is available in a range of finishes to match every doorset, from RAL colour powder coat to an oak timber effect. Each option blends in seamlessly, proof that robustness does not need to be institutional.

They can be square or rectangle shaped, allowing better observation and light flow. Available glass panel designs vary from standard plain colours to soothing graphic options helping to create a high quality, recovery-focused environment.

RIGOROUSLY TESTED FOR ROBUSTNESS

All panels are rigorously tested under extreme conditions to ensure they’re suitable for challenging environments.

OFFERING SUPERIOR SAFETY AND AIDING RECOVERY

Although the vision panel looks more residential than institutional, our vision panels are designed to offer superior safety to reduce self-harm.

UNIVERSAL STAFF-KEY

Our vision panel uses our universal staff-only Lifeline key, compatible with our window locks and anti-barricade stops.

Explore Testing methods

We've tested it thoroughly – following (and exceeding) the requirements set by the Department of Health.

And they're all fire tested and certified with Vistamatic’s vision panels.

How does it reduce self harm?

All fixings are on the corridor side, eliminating additional metal work and from the bedroom space, aiding recovery
Beading has a curved edge on bedroom side, minimising the risk of self harm
The thumb-turn is set back from the door surface, making it harder to use for self-harm
The improved edge detailing creates a softer design that’s safer and reduces the opportunity for self-harm.

What is lifeline key?

Designed to resist tampering and keyway blocking, Lifeline closed keyway locks can only be operated by a staff-only key – enhancing security and giving staff peace of mind that locks will work when required.

Using five spring-loaded forward facing pins, the keyway is automatically closed off when the Lifeline key is removed from the lock. So foreign objects, like tissue paper or chewing gum, don't block the keyway.

The patented Lifeline key is only available from Safehinge Primera, reducing the risk of illicit online purchase. This ensures only staff can operate locks, improving both security and privacy.
