Equilibria Products Company Ltd

There is a saying 'Build a better mouse trap and the world will beat a path to your door' but how do you know if you have a better mouse trap if you are never in the situation to use it?  We've built a better Gate Catch to make the path to your door more accessible.

Have you ever had to physically lift a gate in order to open it?  Have you ever been through a gate that you've had real difficulty closing behind you?  Have you ever got home from work and had to put down your laptop, briefcase and/or shopping in order to open the gate so that you could get to your front door - or do you just leave the gate permanently open to avoid the problem?   

The Equilibria Products Company Ltd (EPC) has developed a range of products to ensure that you never have to endure these experiences again.  By designing products in perfect balance, their gate catches allow the gate to open equally easily in either direction, and are closed simply by the gate being pushed shut. 

Designed by an agricultural engineer, the EPC products are patented and endorsed by the National Trust, Countryside Agency, and the Country Landowner and Rural Business Association.    Their products also help councils and public bodies meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act.  'Opening a gate that has an awkward catch can be hard for many of us, but for anybody with a disability the difficulty can be insurmountable.  Walkers and wheelchair-users in the countryside often have to pass through a number of gates on pathways, so a straightforward and easy means of access is very welcome' (Elizabeth Edwards, The Oxford Times, 25/5/06).
