With over 45 years experience, Yeoman Shield can certainly claim to have wall and door protection in its genes and also has one of the UK’s most comprehensive range of systems designed to be durable, attractive and cost effective.

Walls and doors in public building such as hospitals, nursing homes, GP surgeries and Medical Centres are highly susceptible to unsightly and expensive damage (which in some cases can run into thousands of pounds) often caused by a lethal combination of high pedestrian footfall and wheeled equipment. With budgets being slashed, protection from such costly damage is now a number one priority.

The wide range of durable Yeoman Shield systems (including rails, strips, panels and angles) can combat this problem and ensure that interiors maintain a professional appearance, whilst saving the need of costly repair and redecoration.

Walls often become scuffed and marked at various heights. However, this can be prevented with Yeoman Shield Wall Protection Panels which can be installed above skirting to mid height or floor to ceiling, if necessary.

Yeoman Shield products are easily retrofitted for refurbishment projects – saving money and time – by not having to replace and repair existing damaged areas. Long term savings can also be made by specifying Yeoman Shield at design stage on new build.

As well as supply only, Yeoman Shield also has its own directly employed expert installation team. Friendly and impartial expert advice on projects is readily available from the Yeoman Shield team.

Doors succumbing to damage, occurring from everyday use, can compromise fire integrity leading to them being condemned by Fire Safety Officers for not meeting RRO – Regulatory Reform (fire safety) order 2005 regulations.

Yeoman Shield offers an ideal range of fully tested, fire rated door protection products - including door edge protectors and door panels,  which can help to bring fire doors back up to standard without affecting the fire integrity. This not only prevents the costly need of having to replace door sets but continues to protect the door well into the future.

Yeoman’s latest innovative product, the Yeoman Shield Glazing Bead, offers the ideal solution to combating damaged glazing beads on fire rated doors (which  can render doors unfit for purpose).  When it comes to repair, refurb or overhaul this new product offers the ideal opportunity to replace traditional timber glazing beads with the Yeoman Shield PVCu encapsulated version.  This product has also passed stringent fire testing for both ½ and 1 hour fire rated doors (test data available). 

More cost effective to fit than a new fire door, the Yeoman Shield Glazing Bead reduces the need for repetitive and costly maintenance.

Yeoman Shield manufactured materials are readily available, have been fully fire tested and also undergo further testing in the application in which they will be used i.e. Door Edge Protector.

A team of experts in the Head office in Leeds can offer advice on the wide range of Yeoman Shield products available. Alternatively, you can request a visit from your Area Sales Manager to discuss solutions to improve the longevity of existing doors.
