As a key part of its radiator guard offer, Contour has developed a specialist range of solutions for use in secure environments such as NHS or private mental health facilities, prison and other secure custody services, where reducing the risk of potential ligature and tamper opportunities is of paramount importance in reducing the risk of harm to vulnerable individuals.

Grilles and external TRV’s on all radiator guards are areas that should receive particular scrutiny, as these have been identified as potential ligature points.

These risks have therefore been analysed and addressed on all Contour anti-ligature radiator guard solutions, including:

Secure anti-ligature mesh or grilles – our latest anti-ligature guard designs incorporate a grille using 2mm diameter holes at 4mm centres, set in a triangular formation, punched directly into the body of the guard. This obviates the need for a separately welded mesh in the body of the guard. The grilles holes exceed the requirements of the BS IP3x test.
Anti-ligature TRV shrouds
Internal fixings as standard
Range of security fastenings – including pin-hex locks
Anti-ligature base plates
