Description

Areas of particular concern include:

• Schools or child care centres. Children suffer a disproportionate
number of finger entrapment injuries because of their lack of
understanding of the dangers presented by doors, young
children may put their fingers into the gap between a door and its
frame without any awareness of the possible consequences.
• Homes or residential facilities for the aged or disabled. Those,
particularly with walking difficulties often use the door frame as a
support when negotiating a doorway and inadvertently put fingers
into the jamb, this is especially true of those doors fitted with door
closers
• Where automatic swing doors are fitted, it is a requirement of BS
EN 16005 that fingertrap protection be used at the hanging
stile(s) of the doorset
