Door Protection Panels and Door Kick Plates
Door protection panels, kick plates and finger plates work perfectly in tandem with the Yeoman Shield Door Edge Protectors. Together, they ensure the entirety of your door is protected from damage.
They protect the vulnerable face of the door and can be installed at either full or half height. Smaller plates can be used to protect just those areas which have a lot of wear and tear such as the middle of the door (push plate) or the bottom of the door (kick plate area).
Yeoman Shield’s 2.0 mm door protection plates have surfaces specifically designed to conceal scratches, scuffs and markings. They are fitted to the face of doors to help keep them in good repair and looking great.
Plates can be shaped to a specific design or can be inlaid with an imagery design or signage. This can be just for added design interest, or to provide useful information such as door numbers or WC signage.
Our door protection panels are fire rated, having been tested to the required current standards. Fire door protection does not affect the integrity of the fire door when installed and can keep fire doors undamaged, reducing expensive maintenance work and keeping buildings safe in the event of a fire.
Cutting door protection plates to size often leaves us with stock residue material. It may be possible to meet your requirements for Push/Mid/Kick and D Plates from such residue, at a reduced cost.
Door Edge Protectors
On top of that, the pushing open of doors with trolleys, equipment and even feet can cause severe damage to the existing door edges. Door edges an easily splinter, posing a health and safety hazard, as well as looking shabby and unclean.
The structural integrity of fire doors is especially important, for the safety of the building and the people inside it. Door edge damage can result in a widening gap to that of between 2-4 mm (as is the industry recommended standard), between the meeting edges or the edges and frame, leading to non-compliance of the fire door.
Architrave and Door Frame Protection
Avoiding such damage can be achieved by fitting a Yeoman Shield Frame/Architrave protector resulting in a hygienic and easy to clean finish.
A range of systems to suit all configurations are available.
Glazing Beads
A damaged Glazing Bead alone can render a fire door not fit for purpose by affecting the seals around the glazing.
Yeoman Shield PVCu clad Glazing Bead Protectors (P) are designed to reduce damage and expensive maintenance costs to the vision panel apertures of fire doors.
The PVCu clad Glazing Bead can be installed to both new fire doors and doors in need of repair. We can tailor the refurbishment of damaged timber beads and fire glass to your requirements by replacing just one bead, both beads or bead/s and glazing.
Fire tested to EN and BS Standard tests. Full details are available on request from our Sales Office.
Vinylac around a hardwood inner core.
Relevant fire seals supplied.
Clapping Lath Protection
The Yeoman Shield Clapping Lath neatly attaches to the “pull side” of a double door to close the smallest of gaps, acting as a privacy guard.
A lead-lined version is available to be fitted to X-ray & Laser room doors in conjunction with lead-lined door edge protectors. This helps to eliminate gaps that the radiation may seep through.
Dimensions:
Made to your required size
Recommended − 15 x 65 x 2100 mm high
Standard thickness for the outer cover is either 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm, which is formed around an 11.0 mm inner core.
Fire Door Services
Harrison Thompson (brand name Yeoman Shield) are a FIRAS accredited company whose directly employed fixing operatives can carry out remedial and installation work under FIRAS and BM TRADA best practice guidance for fire doors.
All work carried out by our fixing operatives will be issued with a Certificate of Conformity which will offer assurance on the condition of a building’s fire doors.
Chequer Plate
With a “tread plate” pattern the Aluminium sheet is perfect for manufacturing and back of house service areas which experience wear and tear from the movement of people and equipment, or indeed where an industrial design element is sought.
Wall Protection Panels
FalmouthEx is a 2.0 mm thick wall protection panel and has a fine textured surface to help protect against impact damage, making it one of our most popular forms of wall protection.
HessianEx is also a 2.0 mm thick wall protection panel and has a more defined textured surface which is ideal to protect against damage in areas where décor is important.
Pair your wall protection panels with wall protection strips and corner protection for a complete low-maintenance solution.
Being easily fitted both at new build stage and retrospectively to older walls, both wall panelling sheets protect against bodies and equipment brushing past. Our wall protection plastic is incredibly durable and can be cut to required sizes easily.
Fitted at different heights and widths and cut to any size required, Yeoman Shield’s wall protection sheets can also to be formed to accommodate bends or to go round circular columns.
Wall Protection Strips
Wall protection helps prevent bumps and scrapes and also reduces maintenance requirements, saving both time and money in the long-run by eliminating the need for ongoing repair. Our wall protection strips are a simple, easy to install solution for parts of facilities that either cannot accommodate or do not want to use full wall protection panels.
In a choice of widths and colours, Yeoman Shield wall protection strips can be supplied complete with adhesive tape, making them quick and easy to install.
Imagery
Signage (including Braille) can also be incorporated within certain wall protection rails.
Imagery is where the fun can begin and you can start using your imagination. Inlaid into our wall protection panels, you can create a design or logo of your choice or use one of our standard patterns.
Imagery does the job of a standard wall protection panel with a slice of colour and variety added.
The option of Digital Print onto a Protection Panel is also available allowing photographs and designs to be copied onto a Yeoman Shield Protection Panel using either FalmouthEx, HessianEx or Smooth finishes.
N.B. Please ensure that any photography for digital print can be supplied at a minimum of 150dpi to ensure a quality reproduction.
The imagery wall protection comes with a matching joint cover strip and the fixing option of double-sided tape or Yeoman Shield mastic adhesive.
200mm & 125mm Bed Head Protectors
200 & 125 mm Bed Head Protectors are the benchmark product of the collection, giving a wide rail to absorb the collisions from hospital metal bed frames. Supplied to be fitted either flat back to the wall or as a stand off preference giving a larger scope on protecting both walls and medical equipment.
This no-fuss bed head protector is available in two sizes; 200 mm and 125 mm wide. Based on the original Wall Protection Rail this product is supported by an MDF core adding to the sturdiness of the bed head protector.
The Bed Head Protector is suitable for the head of beds or down the side walls where beds are pushed up to and can be fitted horizontally (not recommended when used with motorised beds) or vertically, in singles or pairs.
Guardian Bed Head Protector
The Guardian Bed Head Protectors with stylish, curved contours are a durable and versatile solution to halting damage to bed bay walls.
Guardian Bed Heads can be installed flat to the wall or on 60 mm spacers allowing protection to hospital services equipment which is typically placed at a bed head.
Can be fitted horizontally (though not recommended when motorised beds are in use) or vertically and are available in singles or pairs.
Plastic Skirting
UPVC skirting boards reduce ongoing maintenance costs in your building − and they can be fitted from the development stage or can be installed later to replace damaged skirting. Upvc skirting offers a far more durable alternative to traditional timber cores, which helps reduce the risk of damage from both pedestrian traffic and the impact of objects such as trolleys.
The extruded PVCu skirting board option complete with a solid core is an alternative to traditional timber skirting.
Perfect for new build projects, it can also be retrofitted if severely damaged skirting need replacing. Paired with our wall protection panels and wall protection strips, facilities managers can form a
With the ability to absorb knocks and bangs, these protection products will help to reduce decorating costs.
Smooth Wall Protection Panels
Suitable also as a protection system for interiors that experience only medium to light impact damage, these panels are well suited to washroom, kitchen, restrooms and cafeteria environments.
Available in pastel or accent colours, the inclusion of Smooth Wall Panels can add flare to interior design schemes.
Please see below for colours available in Gloss (G) or Satin (S) finish.
Ultra 60 Bed Head Protector
The Ultra 60 Rail can be fitted horizontally, but more usually vertically in pairs.
N.B. We would not recommend installing an horizontal Bed Head Protector if adjustable morotised beds are in use. In such circumstances we always advise fitting vertical pairs.
uPCV Work PODS
Our workstation pods help stop the spread of the virus by creating isolated and hygienic workstations. Acting as a divide between desks, these help to prevent the spread of Coronavirus by providing a physical barrier to halt the virus from transmitting via coughs, sneezes or being in proximity to work colleagues for extended periods.
Hand Wash Station Signage
They also provide protection and increased hygiene in the area. The high traffic that handwashing stations see means that the area around them can quickly start to show signs of wear and tear; not only does this mar your building’s aesthetics, but it also negatively impact hygiene. The scrapes and dents on walls can harbour harmful bacteria and are difficult to clean and disinfect, however our protection panelling shields against this kind of damage and therefore contributes to a more hygienic environment.
Ultra Corner Protectors
Having an Aluminium retainer running through the centre of this corner angle offers extra impact absorption properties.
Corners are often caught by trolleys, carts and other moveable equipment which makes the ultra corner protection products that we provide a must in hospitals, warehouses and schools.
Fire Door Maintenance
Many people believe that fire doors cannot be repaired.
This is not always the case.
Using approved repair and maintenance techniques and trained staff ,Yeoman Shield can maintain and repair your fire rated timber doorsets with certification provided under the FIRAS fire door maintenance and installation schemes.
Repair is a more cost efficient and environmentally sustainable solution than replacement.
Contra Wall Protection Rails
Signage can also be incorporated into this system.
Ultra 60 Rail
With its accentuated angled shape, the Ultra 60 rail is a superb option for a low-level wall guard.
Rub Rail

Guardian Handrail
