Summary:
Maintaining a safe and clean environment is essential for students, staff, and visitors. Entryways and high-traffic areas often become hazardous due to tracked-in dirt, moisture, and debris, especially during inclement weather. Walk-off mats serve as an effective solution to mitigate these risks by trapping contaminants at the door and preventing slip-and-fall incidents. Walk-off mats will be installed at (1) Main entryways of all school buildings, (2) Multi-Use Buildings and Gymnasium entrances. Key Benefits: (1) Improved Safety: Reduces the risk of slip-and-fall accidents, promoting a safer environment for students, staff, and visitors. (2) Enhanced Cleanliness: Minimizes the amount of dirt and moisture tracked into buildings, reducing cleaning costs and maintaining facility integrity. (3) Cost Savings: Proactively reduces potential liabilities and maintenance expenses related to floor damage and safety incidents. Proposals for walk-off mats were received by multiple facilities vendors and BradyPLUS (Waxie Sanitary Supply) was the most cost effective.
