Norsound NOR200 Finger Protection Single Set – 1950mm is a surface-mounted safety device designed to help prevent fingers from entering the hazardous gap created between a timber door leaf and frame as the door opens.
The flexible PVC protector bridges the changing hinge-side gap throughout normal door operation. When correctly selected, fitted and maintained, it helps reduce the risk of fingers becoming trapped or crushed as the door closes.
The Single Set is supplied in a fixed 1950mm length with a choice of Silver Grey or White.
The NOR200 Single Set protects the main hinge-gap side of a door.
It is suitable where:
The product does not include the separate knuckle-side protector used on the opposite face of the hinged edge.
Where both sides are accessible, use the appropriate additional knuckle protector or the NOR200 Full Set.
NOR200 is manufactured from flexible PVC. The material is designed to extend and fold as the door moves while maintaining a protective barrier across the hinge gap.
The flexible construction allows it to accommodate suitable timber doorsets with different hinge and frame arrangements, subject to the product’s fitting requirements.
The protector must remain free to move without:
NOR200 is fitted to the surface of the door and frame rather than being recessed into a routed channel.
This makes it suitable for installation on compatible existing timber doorsets where the available surfaces and door geometry allow the protector to be mounted correctly.
The manufacturer identifies two fixing methods:
The exact fixing arrangement should follow the current fitting instructions supplied with the product.
The NOR200 is designed for suitable doors opening up to 180 degrees.
Actual compatibility depends on:
Check the door through its complete operating range before completing the installation.
The NOR200 has been tested through 250,000 operating cycles.
It is also listed as SKG certified to EN 16654 and NEN 8654.
Cycle testing demonstrates durability under the applicable test conditions, but the protector must still be inspected regularly. Frequently operated doors may require more frequent checks of the flexible PVC and fixing points.
NOR200 may be used on suitable internal timber doors where a hinge-side finger-trapping risk has been identified.
Typical locations can include:
Final selection should form part of the site’s door-safety risk assessment.
The stocked colour options are:
Select the finish that best coordinates with the door leaf, frame and surrounding ironmongery.
Both variations are supplied in a fixed 1950mm length.
Before ordering, confirm that the protector will fit the intended door while remaining clear of:
Only trim the product where permitted by the current fitting instructions.
NOR200 is a finger-protection accessory rather than an intumescent or smoke seal.
Before installing it on a fire-resisting door, confirm that:
NOR200 does not independently provide a fire-resistance or smoke-control classification.

The manufacturer states that one NOR200 should be installed on either side of the door where protection is required for pivoted or double-swing applications.
Confirm the complete door geometry and fitting arrangement before specifying multiple single sets.

Continue removing the liner progressively while maintaining a straight vertical alignment.
Do not stretch the flexible PVC during installation.
Align the second fixing edge with the corresponding surface on the door or frame.

Confirm that:
Stop and correct the installation if the protector interferes with the door or begins to detach.
Check that:
Inspect the NOR200 regularly, particularly on frequently operated doors.
