Versatility
The Complete Single-Action Anti-Ligature Door for Mental Health
SOLO’s versatility makes it fit-for purpose in a range of locations across mental health facilities, whether it be corridors, communal areas, staff areas or more.
When combined with our clear-glazed Pyrolux Vision Panels and attack-resistant side or over panels, SOLO delivers the perfect balance between performance and safe observation within challenging environments.
With an extensive range of customisable finishes available and a choice of elegantly designed yet durable anti-ligature hardware, SOLO serves functionally whilst maintaining a well designed appearance to contribute to the healing environment.
Ligature alarm capabilities
SOLO is fully compatible with our SENTRY Full Door Edge Alarm System to help further reduce the risk of loss of life.
Designed through research with our NHS Trust partners to support clinical teams in improving the safety of those in their care, the SENTRY ligature alarm system is an assistive technology that alerts staff when a ligature attempt takes place against any of the door edges.
When fitted with a ligature alarm, SOLO is fully compatible with our KOSMOS Smart Monitoring System, allowing clinical teams to monitor ligature alarms and record an audit trail of patient activity and staff observations, helping management teams 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.
