Holdfire, the specialist company producing door systems for residential care has just been awarded places in the highly coveted Innovation Zone of the London and Birmingham Care Shows.
Carefree Plus is a swing free door system developed by Holdfire specifically for bedroom and communal doors.
This amazing system leaves the door free and easy for residents to open, close or leave open in any position. When the fire alarms activate the doors close. Crucially unlike any other system on the market, Carefree Plus also incorporates key safety features that prevent the door from being slammed maliciously or accidentally, overcoming this serious risk to residents’ safety.
The door closers we inherited were much too heavy for residents to manage and one resident narrowly escaped injury from a slamming door. This innovation from Holdfire is just amazing. The doors are so easy for residents to use and now we can safely leave the doors open, the whole home has a lovely light, airy feel. The best thing of all is that with the anti-slam feature we never have to worry about anyone being hurt by a door again. Christine Hanwell, Arbory Residential Home
Carefree Plus is a market leading system for bedroom doors in a care home but the innovation from Holdfire does not stop there. They have carefully thought through their installation techniques and systems to provide a fast, concealed installation service to operational care homes.
Using specially manufactured wire, their installers are expert in hiding their infrastructure to leave the décor of the home undisturbed.
“The (bedroom) doors are invisibly held open and there is no trace of the wiring whatsoever” and “the installation engineers were very courteous to both residents and staff and fitted the system without disruption to our daily routine” M. Maxwell, Dumfries Holdfire can now offer financing options reducing the cost of this amazing system to less than 29p plus VAT per door per day*. If you are having to fit door closers and hold open systems to meet fire regulations or you just want to make life easier for staff and residents, Carefree Plus is worth serious consideration.
