Anti-ligature blinds that release before they become a risk

Designed for the mental health sector and specified into SEN and higher-risk healthcare settings: under excess pressure, the head rail or track separates from the magnetic brackets that hold it — leaving no remaining point of ligature.

How it works

Load-release, explained plainly

Each system mounts on magnetic brackets rated to hold the blind or track in normal daily use. Apply sustained downward load — a weight a person could hang from it — and the rail releases cleanly from the wall or ceiling fixing. Staff simply lift it back into place afterwards; nothing breaks, nothing needs refitting.

Roller blinds

Anti-ligature rollers with no accessible operating cords or chains where required.

Vertical blinds

Wand, chain or crank operated verticals on load-release head rails.

Curtain tracks

Heavy-duty, light-duty, cubicle divider and shower tracks with the same fail-safe release.

Cubicle & shower curtains

Anti-ligature curtains for bathing and privacy areas, including disposable antimicrobial options.

Specification support

Surveyed against the risk assessment, not the window schedule

The right anti-ligature specification depends on who uses each room and how it's supervised. We survey with your clinical or SEN risk assessments in hand, recommend room by room, and provide the product data your compliance process needs.
