Healthcare — Anti ligature environments

Anti ligature environments

Ward, bedroom and bathroom refurbishments with anti ligature doors, hardware, sanitaryware and finishes integrated into full mental health and acute hospital projects.

Safe fixtures integrated into full ward refurbishments

We design and deliver anti ligature solutions as part of whole ward, bedroom and bathroom refurbishments, not just product swaps. Doors, ironmongery, sanitaryware and furniture are selected with clinical teams, suppliers and estates so they reduce risk and work with existing layouts.

Typical scopes include patient bedrooms and en suites, seclusion and high observation suites, day and lounge areas, circulation and nurse bases. We coordinate anti ligature products with wall linings, ceilings, ventilation, call systems and lighting so details are robust, repeatable and maintainable.
