Hallmark Manufacturing, a proud member of Made in Britain, is thrilled to shine a spotlight on one of its primary licence holders, Holdsdoors. This innovative British company is transforming home safety with its ingenious product designed to prevent a common, yet often overlooked, household danger: trapped fingers in doors.
The inspiration behind Holdsdoors stems from a deeply personal experience. The founders, parents themselves, keenly observed the alarming ease with which young children could sustain traumatic finger injuries from closing doors, particularly on the hinge side. Their search for a suitable solution quickly revealed a significant gap in the market. While products existed to prevent doors from latching shut, there was nothing truly effective to securely hold a door open, eliminating the dangerous gap on the hinge side.
"It wasn't until we had children that we realised the dangers around the home," recounts a Holdsdoors representative. "The biggest one being doors and how easily it was for our little pride and joys to lose their fingers. We soon noticed that the only products available were those preventing a door from closing shut. But what about the products to keep a door open securely, preventing fingers from being crushed? What about the hinge side of the door, that little gap that can cause such a devastating injury"
Driven by this critical need, the founders set about inventing Holdsdoors. The result is a completely unique, self-supporting design that can keep a door open at a secure 90 degrees. This ingenious mechanism eliminates any chance of fingers (children's or otherwise) being trapped in the hinge gap.
One of the most compelling features of Holdsdoors is its remarkable ease of use. Thanks to its self-supporting design, it can be placed anywhere on the hinge side of the door in seconds and removed just as quickly. Crucially, it can be positioned well out of the reach of children, adding an extra layer of safety. Furthermore, its innovative design means there's no need for any permanent fixings, making it a versatile and convenient solution for any home.
Hallmark Manufacturing is proud to support Holdsdoors in bringing this vital safety solution to market. As a Made in Britain member, Holdsdoors exemplifies the ingenuity and dedication to quality that British manufacturing represents. Their commitment to creating a safer environment for families aligns perfectly with the values upheld by the Made in Britain organisation.
This collaboration highlights the strength of the Made in Britain network, where established manufacturers like Hallmark can champion and support groundbreaking innovations from within the UK. Holdsdoors is not just a product; it's a testament to the power of identifying a problem and developing a clever, effective, and proudly British solution.
