A fire detector base that cannot be used to hide contraband or assist in self-harm has been re-designed and launched by Gent by Honeywell. The S-Quad Anti-Ligature Base is made for buildings that accommodate individuals who are considered to be at risk, such as hospitals, prisons, mental health units and other secure facilities. It features no points where a cord, rope, or bed sheet could be looped or tied. Additionally, the device does not afford any spaces to hide drugs, knives, razor blades or any other items that could be used for self-inflicted damage; it also incorporates an anti-tamper lip. A built-in magnetic switch provides loop continuity even when multiple devices are removed; this ensures full loop integrity without the need for a separate T-breaker. As well as being easy to install, it is certified to 6.4kg release load and it is easy to reinstate the device if removed.
