Anti-Ligature Product Innovation

From the introduction of the world’s only hinge-side anti-barricade door system, to the launch of our KOSMOS Smart Monitoring System, our history at Kingsway Group Australia is dotted with carefully designed innovations in ligature resistant and anti-barricade technology, centered around the specific needs of clinical staff and patients.

By considering these needs at every step of our process, and through close collaboration with our mental health partners and people with lived experience, we have been able to develop the widest range of life-safety Complete Door Systems available to meet the extensive demands of the most challenging environments.

Collaborative Innovation

Our range of anti-ligature and anti-barricade solutions are developed in collaboration with leading health authorities, building designers, people with lived experience, and our mental health partners to ensure every requirement down to the finest of detail is considered. We call this process collaborative innovation, and it’s one of the things that’s helped us create solutions that are trusted across the globe and help enhance the healing environment.

We work closely with our partners to continuously advance our offerings and through this process we are able to deliver bespoke solutions that meet the unique needs of your facility, its staff, and its service users.

Design Review Panels

Our Design Review Panels welcome people from a variety of backgrounds and qualifications, including people with lived experience, ward nurses, health and safety officers, directors of estates, project managers and more to assist in critiquing our designs prior to launching to the market.

The Design Review Panels help us bring you products that will succeed in your environment, enabling us to hone our designs and ensure our products and solutions work for everyone in each department, from architects drawing plans, clinical teams and service users operating the doors, project stakeholders managing facilities, to friends and relatives visiting their loved ones.

Utilising Smart Technology

Beyond physical products, our efforts to improve safety and reduce risk within mental health facilities extend to the use of smart technology to assist clinical teams in delivering the best possible care.

Following extensive research with many of our mental health partners, we have developed the next generation patient monitoring software to allow clinical teams to fully monitor ligature alarms whilst providing early warning indicators of ligature attempts.

In addition, KOSMOS provides management teams with invaluable data by logging a full audit trail of door activity, staff observations, and ligature alarm activations to help review patient care quality and highlight key trends on wards, such as service users leaving their rooms at specific times during the night or remaining in their room more than usual.
