Protec's Refra

Protec brought to the UK Market an item called the Refra, what is it?, basically a door stop.


REFRA was designed  as police door stop£6.95 from Protec Police Supplies


On a daily basis they are used to indicate where police staff have entered a building or room. Discreet enough not to draw attention to an unwanted presence, the REFRAs bright yellow outer shell is a clear indication to the trained eye that there is a police presence behind a door. This is an ideal tool for night duty when searching for house numbers in the dark can be impossible. The unit can be clearly identified in torch light and even be left attached to a garden gate near the roadside.


Now the Refra has been adapted for the Ambulance/Paramedic pre-hospital field.


PROTEC were kind enough to give us a number of these items for us to review, you may recall us offering them out. now that some of the staff have had the unit for around two to three weeks we will bring you their reviews

Have used the Refra several times , some difficulty on some of the newer doors but alas failure last week . Last used the device about 6 mths ago went to use it last week and found it has become so hard and brittle on applying some pressure to go over the door it snapped ! Seems the end of a small clever device for me . CFR Vale of Glam .

 

Superb

My name is Steve and I am an EMT in the Vale of Glamorgan, we have a large number of premises in our area, usually flats, where there is a single entry door and off that can be a number of flats with their own entry doors. This piece of kit is so simple to look at, you would be forgiven for saying "what is all the fuss about, it's a bit of plastic, that's all", well this bit of plastic has been used on EVERY shift I have done since obtaining it, and it has allowed the next crew or service immediate access to the property without having to ring a bell and wait.

Not only that it has proved very useful not just for following services/crews but for me and my partner, I have gone back to the vehicle to get stretcher / carry chair, but because of this door stop I no longer have broken pens, nor do i have to scout around for anything to shove in the door like a newspaper, as inevitably another occupant comes along and opens the door, drops whatever was wedging the door, and back to square one....

This simple piece of plastic is invaluable in our job and would recommend it to anyone.
