Anti-ligature solutions
FLR Group is a leading specialist in supplying and fitting fixtures for use in sensitive environments, such as mental health facilities, prisons and schools. The fixtures and fittings in this type of environment have to be safe for normal use but also be something that cannot be used by residents to harm themselves or others.
One of our best-known customers in this field is the Priory Group. FLR Group refurbished 10 bedrooms at the Priory Hospital in Bristol to make them safe and suitable for the patients who would use them, within the eating disorder treatment unit.
Quality-assured products
We work with a number of leading suppliers to provide and fit a range of safety products including anti-ligature solutions. Examples of anti-ligature products include:
• floor-to-ceiling showers
• door and window hardware
• full-height door hinges
Expert, DBS-checked fitters
Our fitting staff are trained to fit products by:
• Primera (for example, their Movastop Safety Rebate system, which provides privacy for patients and has a quick and easy release mechanism for opening a door that has been barricaded)
• Dartvalley (for sanitaryware that is designed to look attractive and similar to domestic products yet is robust, vandal-proof, safe and secure)
• Wallgate (for anti-ligature solutions in bathrooms and toilets, plus electronic water controls for added safety)
These companies have solid reputations for manufacturing top-quality products that meet stringent quality checks, and all FLR Group staff are qualified to ensure that these products are fitted correctly. We can also advise on what types of products would be suitable for your needs, whether you need them for a prison, custody cell, secure children’s home, immigration centre or mental health unit.
Our fitters often work out-of-hours to keep disruption to a minimum and all are DBS-checked and approved.
