Ligature-resistant Bathroom Door for Behavioral Health by Safehinge

May 2022
Product / Project Innovation Highlights

With 91% of inpatient suicides taking place in the patient bedroom or bathroom and 49% occurring using the door or door hardware, doors present the highest ligature risk in behavioral health.1 Safehinge Primera’s Bathroom Door is designed to reduce the risk of suicide in inpatient behavioral environments and ultimately save lives.

Through years of research, experience, and working together with clinical staff, Safehinge Primera learned that to be truly ligature-resistant, a move away from solid, fixed doors was needed. This prompted their load-release concept.
