Why Choose the UrZone®
Safety beds, particularly those for children, should not look scary. We have designed the UrZone with maximum effectiveness with a ‘fun’ appearance so there’s no psychological impact for the user or carer. The occupant can also take themselves into it during the day during a meltdown, giving them back some autonomy when their body is feeling overwhelmed and out of control, therefore keeping them safe and those around them.
Ease of use – knuckle ‘folding’ joints means it’s easy to assemble / disassemble (in only a few minutes).
The UrZone folds down into 1 suitcase if required, but more comfortably into 2 suitcases (supplied).
With the weight of the UrZone being just under 20kg, using the 2 suitcases spreads the weight evenly with room to spare for further items.
To make it easier to wash in most standard household washing machines, the UrZone splits into 3 sections (bedsheet, base, and roof / sides). It can also be tumble dried.
Optional features include hoist access and double-headed zip heads (for individuals with danger awareness who want to be able to enter and leave at will but who need the safety and security of a UrZone during the night for seizures). The standard UrZone and these additional features ensure
the UrZone is the perfect choice for individuals with many different conditions, including autism, epilepsy, Smith-Magenis syndrome, Angelman syndrome, cerebral palsy, Downs syndrome, Alzheimers and other forms of dementia, sensory processing disorder, sleep-walking (somnambulism), nacrolepsy, global developmental delay, brain injury, head trauma, brittle bones, neurofibromatosis, and many more.

UrZone® gives you 'me time' wherever you are
With a user-led design, HKD Solutions Ltd. have created a low sensory multi-functional safe space for sleep, calming down and relaxing. Designed for both children and adults, the UrZone ensures safe, comfortable sleep for individuals with additional, often complex needs and frequently for challenging behaviour. Hand-crafted in the UK, each UrZone can be tailored to the specific requirements of the individual.
Getting a break when you have a child with a disability which means they need familiar, safe surroundings when they sleep can be incredibly difficult. The beauty of the UrZone is that it disassembles into 2 x 360 spinner suitcases supplied – or just the larger one if required – which means that it is very portable, your loved one is taking their own bed with them so their stress is reduced,
and wherever they go, whether it’s on holiday, respite / to stay with an ex-partner / grandparents / friends, you know they’ll be safe and sound. This also applies at home – if you have an individual who has a tendency to wander during the night, this will disturb the sleep of others in the household but the worry will most likely disturb your sleep as you wonder what they’re doing. If you know your loved one is safe, you can sleep more soundly, or at the very least you can rest in the knowledge that they can’t harm themselves or others through a lack of danger awareness.
The UrZone is approx. 1m high. There is a very good reason for this. From personal experience and from speaking with many health professionals, a person is more likely to settle to sleep quicker and go back to sleep if they’re not getting sensory feedback from running about / bouncing off walls of a higher-walled bed. In terms of being enclosed, we’ve had claustrophobic people inside and they have felt absolutely fine due to the mesh all the way around. The diffuse light coming through the mesh actually has an excellent calming effect.

UrZone® Technical Details
We have a UK single model (to fit a standard UK mattress of 190 x 90 x 20cm, min. 17cm high - a standard profiling mattress of 200 x 86/88 x 15/17cm, min. 15cm high, will also fit). We have a UK double model (to fit a standard UK double mattress of 190 x 135 x 20cm, min. 17cm high). Extended access versions are available for both the single and double models. We also have a school model which has a base of 190 x 96cm. Hospitals purchase the extended access model due to its versatility. We are also able.
We have tested the material for strength and the mesh result was approx. 495 pounds of pressure (PSI) and the opaque material was approx. 562 pounds of pressure (PSI). The weave of the mesh means that it is very difficult to rip / tear, even if bitten or chewed. The strength testing we have carried out on the frame has proven to us that it is incredibly strong and durable - more than any comparable product on the market. The gas struts and flexibility of the joints means that it can take more strain without breaking. If you have any.
The UrZone is flame-retardant to a very high standard - CRIB 7 (maximum risk, e.g. use in prisons). In a fire, if you had a baby in a cot, you would be responsible for helping them out the building. This is the same with the UrZone with the added bonus that at least you will know where they are - they won't be hiding in a small space somewhere, potentially not answering to their name. We also recommend families contact their local Fire Station and alert them to the fact that they have a safe enclosed bed in their property.
Absolutely! There's a 'Sunday best' standard called Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, Class 1 (highest safety level - for textile items for babies and toddlers up to 3 years, i.e. items that they will be in close skin contact with) and the UrZone material passed with flying colours but we weren't happy with just this. This only tests with alkaline testing and we wanted to test with acid testing (if someone managed to get a piece of material and swallowed it) so we added in the standard for EN71 part 3 (nursery toy testing in case a toy is chewed and swallowed).
