A whitepaper created to help you make better and more informed decisions for your mental health facility.
Our new research-led report brings together fresh industry insights with two decades of frontline experience to help teams navigate choosing windows for mental health environments with clarity and confidence.
The Safevent electric sliding window system comprises a double fronted window and a free sliding external sash.
The double window has one glazed area and the other is fitted with a fixed stainless steel visomesh. The sliding sash is glazed, sealing the mesh side when closed and is weather tight and draughtproof.
In this way, the window provides natural light and ventilation which can be controlled by service users, yet it also helps to maintain a safe, secure and anti-ligature environment to meet the requirements of secure facilities.
All Safevents are fabricated in-house at our Warrington manufacturing facility to ISO 9001 standards, and most importantly, always installed by our own Britplas employed fitting teams.
We have installed tens of thousands of Safevent windows in new build and refurbishment projects for public and private healthcare providers in the UK and across the globe.
Here are some of the reasons why the Safevent continues to be the benchmark window product for supervised care environments.
GlassShield is a patented and trademarked product comprising a deep PVC bonded to the window and glass to prevent any object being trapped between them to create a ligature point.
The system also protects the edge of the glass from mental on glass impact, should any force be placed upon the Safevent, reducing the risk of the glazing becoming damaged.
