Oldham Sports Centre in Greater Manchester has seen the installation of Fingershield Safety's award-winning door safety devices, joining clients such as Virgin Active, Esporta and Total Fitness.
Explaining the move, Sports Centre chief executive, Ian Kendall said: "In the increasingly unforgiving litigious culture we live in these days, managing a leisure centre is a huge responsibility, and staying in control of Health and Safety risks is one area in which too many people repeatedly fall down.
"Leaving your doors unprotected quite simply leaves children open to one of the most traumatic of accidents, which, in turn, leaves your leisure centre wide open to personal injury claims, totalling up to £7,000 in some cases."
He continued: “Having witnessed first hand just how traumatising it can be for a child to get their fingers trapped in a door, and knowing there is an extremely effective solution to this type of accident, I cannot believe that doors continue to remain unprotected.”
The Fingershield device is designed to completely cover the dangerous gap created on both the front and rear hinge side of a door when it is in the open position.
Features and specifications include:
- guaranteed to fit 95 per cent of door types
- also specifically designed to protect many types of external gates
- easily fixed
- maintenance free
- easily removed if necessary
- zero rated fire certification
- acts as a secondary smoke inhibitor and draught excluder
- available in ten different colours - red, yellow, dark blue, light grey, teak , beech, black, white, brown and beige
- contains no cadmium or lead-based materials
It also has a unique ten-year warranty free of charge.
