Yeoman Shield were assigned by main contractors Bauvill Construction to install a wall and door protection system as part of the scheme to create a new Cardiac Critical Care Unit (CCU) and Cardiology ward along with an access corridor at William Harvey Hospital in Kent.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The access corridor was fitted with Yeoman Shield\u2019s Guardian Twin Handrail in a stunning colour combination of burgundy and mid grey with matching accessories and attractive stainless steel connective brackets helping to add a unique touch to the d\u00e9cor of the area.<\/p>\n

Chosen for its dual functionality the Guardian Twin handrail incorporates an ergonomic upper handrail as support for people who require assistance and a lower robust protection rail, which sitting slightly forward guards both the handrail and the walls from marking and damage caused by the passage of wheeled equipment.<\/p>\n

The same Guardian Twin Handrail system was also deployed in the CCU this time with a red lower rail, a striking contrast to the mid grey handrail. Matching red Corner Protection Angles, both 90\u00b0 and 135\u00b0, were installed to vulnerable corners protecting from impact damage.<\/p>\n

Fire doors in the unit also benefitted from the installation of Yeoman Shield\u2019s fire rated door protection products, shielding the door from impact damage that can be detrimental to the functioning of a fire door.<\/p>\n

Fire rated door edge protectors to both meeting and hinged edges as well as door protection panels were added to the door without affecting the integrity of the original fire door.<\/p>\n

Yeoman Shield were able to assist with exacting time scales on the project by a quick turnaround of product and service with a site survey, manufacture and installation of the product being completed in 2 weeks.<\/p>\n

Paula Stone, Head of Operational Facilities Management at East Kent University Foundation Trust commented \u201cThe lower wall protection element of Yeoman Shield\u2019s Guardian Handrail now fitted in our high traffic areas will reduce the cost of repairs and maintenance overtime. The upper handrail of the system will help less abled patients get around hospitals giving them something to grab on to if needs be, helping to prevent falls.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe design of the rail has the added benefit of being easy to clean which adheres to our infection control policies.\u201d<\/p>\n
