Question

What is the Patient Safety Lever (SPSL)?

Answer

The SPSL Series consists of both a mortise lock and a cylindrical lock. The SPSL meets the needs of resisting ligature engagement on the lock trim while providing patients and staff with easy-to operate hardware. The patented design meets the intent of ADA by eliminating the operational requirement “pinch & grasp” motion.
