Despite the Safety Hook's 'normal' appearance, and attractive design, the meticulous choice of material combined with very specific design details makes it both safe and functional. The patented self-harm and suicide resistant hook is designed with the aim to add color and design to the environment, while still fulfilling the need for safety. The hook holds the weight of several garments or towels, but when an excessive force is applied in a downwards direction its anti-ligature function releases. The hook does not break but bends, forcing the ligature to slide off. Vertical load tests on the hook with a 1 mm string, a shoelace 8 x 1 mm or a rope made from cotton sheets released between 18.7 lbs. and 21.6 lbs. Tested at RISE/SP to withstand 1000 releases, still retaining its shape and function.
