Fewer chipped edges and patch repairs
Coverage where impacts land
We choose guard height and width around nearby equipment and traffic flow.
Straight, even fitting
Each corner is measured so the guard does not twist or leave open edges.
Joined with wall finishes
We coordinate guards with sheets, skirting and nearby door frames.
Protect the corners that traffic always catches
External corners sit directly in the path of beds, carts and hurried trolleys. Once the edge chips, routine decoration rarely survives the next impact for long. We install corner guards over these exposed points to protect the finish beneath. Coverage can run full height or focus on the level where equipment makes contact. We consider the direction of traffic, width of the guard and surrounding wall finish before fitting. In rooms with hygienic sheeting, guards can also be planned around the sheet edges rather than added later as an afterthought.
Measured to sit straight and hold securely
A guard will only look right if the corner beneath has been checked first. We measure the angle, assess existing damage and prepare the surface before setting the section evenly. Fixing must hold the guard securely without leaving it twisted, gapped or proud along one side. We also look at nearby door frames, skirting and wall sheets so the ends finish sensibly. This small piece of planning can prevent a protected corner from creating two untidy junctions beside it.
Frequently asked questions
Should corner guards cover the full wall height?
Not always. Full-height guards suit some settings, while targeted coverage may be enough where impact occurs at trolley or bed height. We consider traffic and the surrounding finish before discussing the extent.
Can a damaged corner be protected afterwards?
Yes, but the existing condition needs checking first. Loose material, uneven repairs or badly broken edges may require preparation so the guard can sit straight and fix securely against the corner.
Can guards be fitted with hygienic wall sheets?
Yes. We can plan corner guards with the sheet layout so adjoining edges and heights meet neatly. Coordinated fitting is particularly useful where both cleaning and impact resistance matter.
