Proximity Reader Shroud for Paxton Readers
A ligature-resistant shroud designed to protect Paxton proximity readers in mental health and high-security environments.
These robust shrouds provide a safe, durable, and professional solution for healthcare settings, while ensuring LED indicators on the readers remain fully visible. Chamfered edges and a narrow profile reduce ligature risks and make the product suitable for sensitive areas.
Available in Black and Silver to complement your facility’s design.


Product Description
The Point 5 Plus Paxton Proximity Reader Shroud is engineered for use in high-risk environments such as mental health facilities, secure wards, and other healthcare settings. It fits precisely over existing Paxton readers, protecting the device from accidental or intentional damage while allowing staff to operate it efficiently.
Made from strong, tamper-resistant polycarbonate, the shroud is durable enough to withstand everyday wear and tear in busy facilities. The chamfered edges, smooth contours, and narrow profile minimise ligature risks, helping create a safer environment for both patients and staff.
The shroud is surface-mounted using security screws to ensure a stable and secure installation. Its unobtrusive design ensures that it blends seamlessly with interior finishes while providing reliable protection.
