The COVID-19 pandemic will change the way we design our businesses and alter human interaction with things that were once an after-thought, like a door handle. Rethinking spatial design to ensure the free-flow of traffic while reducing the number of times multiple people interact with a physical object will help keep your staff, customers, and guests safe. Reducing the use of physical contact that hands make with doors can have an immediate impact toward reducing transmission of germs. FlyLock are here to help with the installation and modification of door hardware that limits the use of hands, including:

PREVENTING THE SPREAD OF GERMS IS CRUCIAL THESE DAYS, HANDS-FREE HARDWARE CAN HELP
Foot Pulls
Stainless steel door pulls are attached to the bottom of a door and assist an operator to open the door with their foot. These are ideal for situations where a user requires sterile hands, would typically have their hands full, or in an effort to reduce touchpoints of a user’s hands.
Arm Pulls
Similar to foot pulls, arm pull handles give a user the option to utilize their arm or elbow to open a door as opposed to having direct contact with their hand. This can reduce the transmission of germs since pathogens are less likely to be centered directly on one’s arm.
Push Plates
Push plates help support doors while providing a user a cue as to how to operate the door ahead of them. Knowing they have this option, an operator often opts for an arm or elbow in order to limit hand-to-hardware exposure. Typically constructed out of stainless steel or copper alloy, push plates are easily cleaned and sanitized in order to kill and prevent the spread of any germs that have been spread to them.
