Preventing trapped fingers, knocks and bumps
Every year almost 20,000 children in the UK require hospital treatment for trapped
fingers. To avoid some of the risks you can fit the following:
- Finger protectors - these can be fitted on the inside door hinge to
prevent trapping and over the top of a door to prevent the door from slamming shut on
fingers accidentally
- Childproof locks - can be fitted to
sliding patio doors to secure them either open or closed
- Corner protectors - these are fitted with adhesive pads to any item of
furniture with a sharp corner to cushion against bumping. Transparent styles are the least
obtrusive in appearance
