Manufacturer of anti-ligature products and door and wall protection, Intastop, will show its new Door Top Alarm, ‘developed through consultations with a variety of customers from the mental health industry’.
Sarah Barsby, marketing director, said: “Established for over 20 years, Intastop has gained a reputation as an innovator in door and wall protection for the healthcare and anti-ligature markets. The Door Top Alarm is an antiligature product for use on the tops of doors to detect if weight is applied. The mains-powered system has a tamperproof element with a variable alarmed delay setting, and is compatible with most staff attack systems that can alert staff via an audible alarm, visible light, staff indicator panel, or via a pager or main computer.” Suitable for both retrofit and new build, the Door Top Alarm is compatible with a variety of additional anti-ligature products from Intastop, such as its single or double swing hinge. Sarah Barsby added: “We view this new conference and exhibition event as a perfect opportunity to address the issues of mental health from a practical standpoint. We know from our work with UK hospitals and mental health facilities that environment really does have an impact on recovery rates.”
