Working on a range of bespoke projects in environments such as schools, academies, nurseries, colleges and universities has given us a wealth of experience in the education sector.

Doorsets within these environments are often exposed to a high volume of footfall, hence durability and strength are a primary consideration.

Finger trapping is also an important consideration in areas where children regularly frequent. The statistics presented by Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) indicate around 30,000 children trap their fingers in doors each year, in the UK.

Incorporating finger protection into the design of a doorset can be a challenge however using an innovative solution such as the Fields Safety Hinge eliminates the dangerous gap on the hinge side of the door, preventing fingers being trapped.
