Anti Ligature Pull Handle Grade 304 Stainless Steel 150mm 100mm C/C Bolt Fixings Supplied

Standard door hardware often presents significant risks in behavioral health settings. The 150mm Anti Ligature Handle addresses these risks through a specialized “sloped-top” geometry. Unlike traditional handles that project at a 90-degree angle, this safety handle features a tapered profile and enclosed ends. This design ensures that any material—such as clothing, cords, or bedding—placed over the handle will slide off under tension rather than providing a point for ligatures.

The compact 150mm length is ideal for internal doors, cupboards, or smaller service hatches where space is at a premium but safety cannot be compromised. By utilizing 100mm Center-to-Center (C/C) bolt fixings, this handle provides a rock-solid, through-door connection that resists heavy-handed use and physical abuse common in high-security environments.

Why the 150mm Grade 304 Handle is the Clinical Standard

• Tamper-Proof Bolt-Through Fixings: Every 150mm Anti Ligature Handle is supplied with heavy-duty bolt-through fixings. This ensures the handle is clamped securely from both sides, preventing it from being pried off or used as a lever.

• Corrosion-Resistant Grade 304 Steel: Forged from premium stainless steel, the 150mm Anti Ligature  Handle is built to withstand rigorous infection control protocols. It remains rust-free and structurally sound even after repeated cleaning with industrial-grade disinfectants.

• Compact 100mm C/C Fitting: The 100mm C/C (hole center to hole center) dimension is a standard specification, making this handle an excellent choice for both new builds and the retrofitting of existing safety doors.

• Fully Radiused Safety Edges: To prevent accidental injury or the intentional creation of sharp edges, the 150mm Anti Ligature Handle features smooth, chamfered edges and a satin finish that is gentle on the hands while remaining non-grip for ligatures.

• Fire Rated Compliance: This handle is fully tested and certified for use on timber fire doors, ensuring that your facility meets both life-safety and fire-compartmentalization regulations.

Professional Installation and Safety Maintenance

To maintain the high-safety standards of a mental health facility, the installation of the 150mm Anti Ligature Handle must be flawless.

1. Zero-Gap Fitment: It is vital that the handle sits perfectly flush against the door leaf. Any gap between the stainless steel plate and the door could allow a thin thread to be wedged behind it, creating a potential ligature point.

2. Security Screw Alignment: Always use the provided security bolts. These require specialized drivers (like Pin-Hex or Security Torx) to prevent unauthorized removal by service users.

3. Routine Inspection: Facilities should implement a monthly audit. Check each 150mm Anti Ligature Handle for signs of tampering, scratches that could provide grip, or loose fixings caused by building vibration.

4. Cleaning: Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Maintaining a smooth, polished surface is essential to ensuring the “slip-off” safety feature of the sloped design remains effective over time.
