Built for the places children learn and play

  • Schools, kindergarten to junior high: classrooms, washrooms, gyms and hallways.
  • Daycares and nurseries: play rooms, nap rooms and kitchens.
  • Play areas and family venues: indoor play centres, restaurants and leisure centres.
  • Care homes: protection for residents and visitors as well as children.

Why the hinge side?

Most people watch the handle side of a door. But on the hinge side there's a gap between the door and the frame that opens and closes like scissors every time the door swings. Fingershield guards cover that gap along the full height of the door, so fingers and hands can't get trapped in it.

The Door Protection Pack: one door, fully protected

Each pack contains one Push-side guard and one Pull-side guard, covering the hinge side of both faces of the door. It costs less than buying the two separately.

  • Sizes: 79" (for 80" doors) and 83" (for 84" doors). Guards can be trimmed for shorter doors.
  • Materials: uPVC and nitrile rubber, calcium-zinc stabilized, no cadmium or lead.
  • Have fire-rated doors? Contact us before ordering and we'll help you check.

Design guidance

The City of Toronto's Child Care Design & Technical Guideline recommends, under Openings: "Doors: Provide fully glazed with hinge guards."

This is a design guideline for child-care spaces, not a regulation. Check your own licensing and building requirements.
