CONTROLLED ENTRY

Managing access to school grounds is the first line of defense. The ability to keep a tight rein on which individuals can enter is invaluable. Electronic locks and access control automatically control entry points with key cards and remote management. As a result, students and staff can quickly get to their classes, and administrators can grant special access as needed.

THE UNBLINKING EYE

Even with dedicated education and rigorous training, our human senses are fallible. Fatigue and familiarity can cause a lapse in observation. As a result, details are missed as our eyes tire. Video surveillance is an unblinking eye, allowing you to keep watch on every corner of the grounds and building.

Modern cameras with 4K ultra-high-definition imaging give your team the ability to identify potential issues clearly and the people involved. For example, any concerns about blind spots or distant perimeter fencing are resolved using lensing and camera options. In addition, network-based video recorders store high resolution footage, making facial recognition and evidence archiving more effective.

DE-ESCALATION

The biggest fear of every safety officer is an active shooter event. During such a situation, it is critical to identify the exact location to initiate safety procedures effectively. Gunshot detection systems provide pinpoint identification using infrared, acoustic, and shockwave sensors. Early detection gives first responders the ability to quickly and accurately isolate any threat. 

In addition, the alert system triggers emergency messaging, initiating text message warnings, digital signage, prerecorded audio messages, and calls to police and fire. Clear and direct information can quickly and efficiently launch lockdowns, evacuations, and other safety procedures to save valuable time and lives.

It is an unfortunate fact of modern life that serious threats exist against schools and students. However, an expertly designed, managed, and maintained school security system gives you the tools to prevent and protect.
