Abstract: There is provided a method and system for monitoring a clinical response in a mental health environment. The method comprises receiving alarm data indicative of a triggered alarm associated with a door mounted within a door frame; receiving, from an angle sensor, angle data indicative of a measured angle of the door relative to the door frame; detecting an entry through the door in dependence on a change in the measured angle of the door indicated by the angle data; and outputting an indication of a clinical response in dependence on the detection of the opening of the door.

Abstract: There is provided a controller, a system, computer software and a method for detecting a ligature on a door mounted within a door frame on mounting means. A load applied by the door to the mounting means is detected by a load sensor. An angle of the door relative to the door frame is detected by an angle sensor. Baseline load data is obtained, the baseline load data being indicative of an expected load applied by the door to the mounting means as a function of the angle of the door. The method comprises determining a threshold load value indicative of a ligature on the door for the measured angle in dependence on the baseline load data and the detected angle of the door; determining whether the detected load exceeds the threshold load value for the detected angle; and outputting an indication of a detected ligature event if the detected load exceeds the threshold load value.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-barricade door handle assembly which comprises an integrated auxiliary door handle for use in an emergency. The auxiliary door handle can be configured between a stowed configuration and an activated configuration. The auxiliary door handle is operable to operate a lock when in the activated configuration and inoperable when in the stowed configuration. The auxiliary door handle can only be configured to the activated configuration by an authorized user. The auxiliary door handle is configured to override a primary door handle which operates the lock in normal, non-emergency use.

Abstract: A method of detecting a ligature on a door is provided whereby the load applied by the door to a load sensing means and the movement of the door relative to the door frame are used to determine whether a ligature is being applied to the door to thereby trigger an alarm. Apparatus for carrying out the method is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a door jamb assembly comprising a door stop member movably mounted thereon, configured such that the door stop is selectively operable to move from an extended, door-engaging position into a retracted door-disengaging position, and where the door stop member is adapted to initially move directly away from the face of a door with which it is in contact during use. Associated methods, door assemblies and suchlike are also provided. The door jamb assembly of the present invention is of particular use in situations where a door may be barricaded.

Abstract: A safety device suitable for use with hinged doors or windows, as well as methods of installing such a device. The device comprises an elongate exclusion member that is adapted to fit within the hinge gap in an open door and acts to prevent or significantly reduce the risk of injury to a subject through entrapment of fingers of other appendages in the hinge gap present in many door and window systems. The device of the present invention is particularly suitable for retrofitting to existing door and window systems.

Abstract: A dispensing system for liquid materials comprising a container, a dispensing assembly, a cap member, and base material. The container defines a primary opening, a secondary opening, and a product chamber. The dispensing assembly is selectively attached to the container to cover the primary opening. The cap member is selectively attached to the container to cover the secondary opening. The base material is introduced into the product chamber through the secondary opening. The base material is dispensed from the product chamber through the primary opening using the dispensing assembly.
