Corner Protection And Looking After High Traffic Corridors
November 20, 2009
Building maintenance costs a lot of money and can be a real strain on resources so it always god when you can save money. we waste huge amounts of money trying to keep walls looking in pristine condition by regularly painting them, filling holes and smoothing down uneven surfaces. Building managers are constantly on the lookout for loose tiles, plaster or sharp corners because they can be a lot of bother. If someone comes into contact with defective walls they can be injured and on a less serious note they are unsightly to look at. To reduce the amount of regular maintenance work carried out you can use Corner protection, bump rails and plastic wall panelling to reduce the damage that impacts can cause.
Busy buildings include hospitals, schools, offices and supermarkets. people, wheelchairs, hospital beds, shopping trolleys and a number of other moveable objects move through the rooms and corridors of the buildings. When people or these moveable object hit the corners of buildings there can often be a lot of damage done to the structure of the wall as plaster chips off and paintwork becomes unsightly. When corner protection is not in use, this can lead to expensive repair work by the building’s maintenance staff or contracted labourers.
To save this money you should use protective materials which can absorb high impacts and save the wall underneath from damage. Choose corner trims and angles which are made from PVCu like Vinylac because these are resistant to abrasion and impacts. Your building will stay looking in great condition because there are no marks of damage on the inner walls or the outer protective units. This helps because there is no need to replace the corner trim or angle every year and you should be protected by a guarantee.
The colour, finish and size of corner protection you choose can be tailor made to your needs. The most common angles in most buildings is 90° and 135° which are what most units are manufactured to. You can attach the protective rails using industrial strength double sided tape or super glue. You can also choose between a range of thicknesses if you know that very high impacts occur in your building.
