Finger Entrapment Door Stopper 180cm

“Door finger guards”, also known as “door finger protection”, serve as shield protection to cover the opening on the hinge side of the door. By installing finger guards on doors, finger entrapment is prevented. In schools and kindergartens, many kids still get their fingers pinched between the door. Children often grab and touch their surroundings, which can result in injury when they are near a closing door.

Clear evidence from the Netherlands shows the importance of having door finger protection in Early Childhood Services. Since door finger guards became mandatory in kindergartens in the Netherlands (2008), the number of registered visits of children for finger entrapment injuries decreased by an amazing 40% (2008-2014).
