In spite of the hook’s ‘normal’ appearance, and attractive design, the meticulous choice of material combined with very specific design details makes it both safe and functional. The patented self-harm and suicide resistant hook is designed with the aim to add color and design to the environment, while still fulfilling the need for safety. The hook holds the weight of = several garments or towels, but when an excessive force is applied in a downwards direction its anti-ligature function releases. The hook does not break but bends, forcing the ligature to slide off. Installation hardware is not included.

• Size: H 2.6 in, W 0.8 in, D 1.4 in
• Vertical load tests on the hook with a 1 mm string, a shoelace 8 x 1 mm or a rope made from cotton sheets released between 18.7 lbs and 21.6 lbs
• Tested at RISE/SP to withstand 1000 releases, still retaining its shape and function. Patented.
• Hooks are mounted on a flat wall surface to obtain a tight fit to the wall and thus prevent the possibility of attaching a string or the like between the wall and the hook.
