A tough Fingerguard type, should you need a finger guard for the automated entrance doors of your corporate headquarters or for a similar high-visibility and prestigious location this is one to consider.

It fits any door up to 180° opening and there are standard (260mm) and wide (320mm) opening versions. The guards use a retractable, fabric shield housed in a slim, stylish and robust anodized housing.
