10 COMMON DOOR SAFETY
MISTAKES SCHOOLS MAKE
Presented By - Safety Assured Ltd
Educational institutions have stringent safety protocols
to create a safe environment for both kids and adults.
However, door safety is a seemingly harmless aspect that
needs more attention. Doors can be a major hazard if not
properly managed. Here are ten common door safety mistakes
that educational institutions like schools make and also
how to rectify them:
1. Neglecting Door Risk Assessment
Schools often conduct major safety audits but overlook
things like heavy or poorly maintained doors. Many
injuries arise because schools do not recognise doors as
potential hazards. However, it is crucial to assess all
doors in busy corridors, classrooms, changing rooms, and
toilets for proper safety.
2. Lacking Door Safety Guards
Securing doors requires installing durable door hinge
guards, dampeners, and other safety measures. Unprotected
doors can lead to excruciating finger-trapping injuries.
So, authorities must install protective devices on all
doors to safeguard kids and adults.
3. Using Heavy Doors Without Checking
Heavy doors may be a reliable choice in schools, but are
also a safety hazard. Improper handling can increase
slamming risks, leading to painful injuries. It is
essential to comply with security standards to prevent
accidents and maintain all doors with proper checks for
safe functioning.
4. Overlooking Fire Door Safety
Fire doors are, again, heavy and can be poorly maintained.
They help prevent fires from spreading and offer a safe
exit, but they can also fail during emergencies or cause
injuries. Ensure installing automated devices to aid the
door’s functioning while minimising risks.
5. Inadequate Door Visibility
Doors without visible markings or panels can risk
collisions in tight corridors or high-traffic areas. So,
during safety planning, authorities must make an effort to
reduce the likelihood of accidents and ensure the doors
are precisely marked and remain visible.
6. Failing to Educate Staff
No matter how stringent your safety protocols are, they
can all fall short if the staff isn’t aware of them. Your
employees must know how to use all doors and be vigilant
during emergencies. Therefore, proper training is
essential for both new and old staff.
7. Having Doors with Protrusions
Some old doors can have exposed/rusted hardware, worn-out
edges, and damaged frames, risking cuts, scratches, and
other injuries. These minor issues can easily turn into
significant hazards. So, replace old doors or schedule
timely repairs to minimise risks.
8. Delaying Maintenance
Poorly maintained doors and components like handles,
locks, closers, hinges, door frames, etc., can compromise
safety. You might delay repairs due to oversight or budget
constraints. However, it is essential to resolve issues
promptly and schedule routine maintenance for safety.
9. Failing to Educate Students
Apart from training staff, it is crucial to help even kids
understand the safe operation of all doors and their
components. Schools often neglect this aspect, but with
some basic demonstration, you can keep kids informed and
out of danger.
10. Lacking Child-Centric Design
You might be having doors with standard designs. But these
doors can be unsafe for smaller kids or any vulnerable
adults. Install child-friendly, easy-to-use, lightweight
yet durable doors with door finger guards for schools and
soft close mechanisms to enhance safety and keep
liabilities away.
To Conclude
Door safety could often take the last spot on the priority
list, but it’s crucial in maintaining secure environments.
Addressing common door safety concerns helps reduce risks
for those on the premises and ensures compliance.
