Washroom Washroom unlocks potential<br />

with smartLOK<br />

Washroom Washroom has added an innovative new cubicle lock<br />

to its washroom accessories collection and it is now available to<br />

see at the new Saneux showroom in Clerkenwell.<br />

smartLOK combines high quality mechanics and electronics to<br />

enable the user to lock and unlock the cubicle door just with one<br />

touch. Simply pressing the<br />

handle activates the contact<br />

plate to lock or unlock the door<br />

smoothly.<br />

With a number of different<br />

handle choices, all<br />

ergonomically designed with the<br />

user in mind, smartLOK adds an<br />

extra dimension to any<br />

washroom or changing area. The<br />

stylish lock is designed to look<br />

like a door handle from the<br />

outside rather than a traditional bolt indicator, opening up new<br />

possibilities for architects and designers alike.<br />

The new lock can be installed quickly in the same way as a<br />

standard lock. As an added safety feature, the lock set has been<br />

designed in such a way that the lock plate will break off cleanly if<br />

the door has to be forced open in an emergency situation. The<br />

lock plate section can then be easily replaced and clicked on to the<br />

cubicle door, causing minimal fuss, cost and downtime.<br />

Hygienic solution to toilet guidelines<br />

Guidelines on school toilet provision have been updated for new build<br />

and refurbishment/conversion projects. In addition to changes to the<br />

specifications, the revised recommendations say it is better to have<br />

fewer, bigger, and better rooms than an over-provision of small<br />

compromises.<br />

Closomat, Britain’s<br />

leading provider of<br />

accessible toileting in<br />

and out of the home,<br />

delivers a complete<br />

package - design<br />

advice, supply install,<br />

and<br />

servicing/maintenance<br />

- to help<br />

commissioners and<br />

providers meet the<br />

new guidelines, with<br />

best value.<br />

“School toilets really matter,” says Robin Tuffley, Closomat marketing<br />

manager. “New research shows teenagers with continence issues are<br />

at risk of underachieving at school. And what about hygiene, not just<br />

for the child, but the member of staff helping them? What about<br />

privacy? Independence? Learning personal care skills?”<br />

The new British Standard notes that replacement of a conventional<br />

WC with a wash and dry toilet, certainly in a Changing Places,<br />

enhances dignity and independence for the user.<br />
