Somerset Special Needs School

This project was initiated with the goal of enhancing safety through the provision of anti-ligature roller blinds. In environments where security is paramount, particularly in sensitive settings such as care facilities or educational institutions, it is crucial that window furnishings do not present a risk of self-harm. The brief was to supply a solution that not only met stringent safety standards but also harmonised with the existing décor in each room.

The Challenge

The primary challenge was to deliver roller blinds that were compliant with anti-ligature requirements while ensuring that their appearance was both modern and aesthetically pleasing. The blinds needed to provide a safe environment without compromising on design, as each room demanded a unique colour scheme that complemented its interior style.

The Solution

To address these requirements, we supplied and installed specially designed anti-ligature roller blinds. These were available in a range of colours, enabling a tailored approach that matched the décor of each individual room. The blinds were engineered with safety in mind, incorporating features that minimise the risk of ligature points while maintaining a sleek, contemporary look.

Benefits and Outcomes

  • Enhanced Safety: The anti-ligature design significantly reduces the risk of self-harm, ensuring that the blinds contribute to a safer environment.
  • Customised Aesthetic: With a variety of colours available, the blinds were installed in a manner that complemented and enhanced the interior design of each room.
  • Improved Compliance: By adhering to strict safety standards, the solution meets the regulatory requirements expected in environments where safeguarding is essential.
  • Seamless Integration: The installation process was carried out efficiently, resulting in a harmonious integration with the existing furnishings and overall room décor.

The successful supply and installation of safe anti-ligature roller blinds exemplifies our commitment to merging functionality with design. By offering a solution that is both secure and visually appealing, we have enhanced the safety and aesthetic quality of each room, delivering a practical and stylish upgrade that meets both regulatory and design objectives.
