When installing blinds, rails and dividers, safety is paramount for Brighter Blinds, which is why they supply the Yewdale Kestrel Anti-Ligature system.
This system is designed to protect service users by removing the potential of death where secure care is required.
This anti-ligature system prevents rails, blinds and other equipment from locking or jamming, and therefore will quickly release when sudden loads are placed upon them. Used widely in detention centres and mental health facilities, the anti-ligature system helps to save lives by ruling out the chance of self-harm.
This magnetic system does not have any sockets which could allow it to jam, instead, two flat surfaces make up the fail-safe element, ensuring they cannot be jammed by any other product.
If a Yewdale product is brought down due to an increase in the supported weight capacity, the product simply needs to be held next to the magnetic brackets, where it will reconnect immediately. This eliminates any down-time required to replace or repair a product. And with a range of curtain rails, blinds and wall brackets available, you can ensure that every need is covered.
Brighter Blinds supply the Yewdale Kestrel Anti-Ligature system as it is not subject to “wear and tear”, it uses unbreakable parts and no system should be able to support a downward force of more than 400 Newtons (around 40kg).
With a range of products available, there is no safer option when considering safety in facilities where self-harm or similar accidents are possible. From care homes and nurseries to hospitals and mental health facilities, Brighter Blinds can come out to assess your needs, ensuring the safety of staff and patients.
