Lock down solutions for schools and other facilities.

Tragedies happen. We can only learn from them and try to improve the security features and products to help prevent future tragedies from reoccurring.Lockdowns may be used to prevent a crime from occurring or to mitigate further disorder as well as to protect people inside a facility from attackers.There are different levels of door lockdown. A partial lockdown may involve a specific door, for example the door to a office or classroom, or a group of doors, for example the exterior doors to a school building. A full lockdown could involve all the doors in a school building or on a campus.In correctional facilities like jail houses, lockdowns are very common and may happen daily, full lockdown is employed in the event of a riot or uprising.In Hospitals and other healthcare facilities, lockdowns may occur if the following happens:
