School Lockdown Alert Systems
Eurocoms is committed to the safety of schools and the education markets in case of any emergency situation or incidents that may arise in a precise and efficient manner. Emergencies can be informed immediately to a central operator, within or external to the building and measures can be initiated immediately.
A growing number of schools, businesses and public spaces in the UK have been the subject of major incidents and threats of violence in the last year alone. Due to the random nature of these events, there is little that can be planned to prevent them. By having a clear and effective communication system installed alongside a robust lockdown alert and evacuation procedure, Eurocoms are improving the way business, staff and pupils react to such events.
To use a school as an example, where a fire alarm bell is sometimes used for break times and class change, to also use this in an emergency situation, can lead to confusion. In the event of a possible violent intruder on the premises, the last thing any school wants is pupils streaming out onto a playground and gathering at assembly points.
To solve this issue, Eurocoms have created a Lockdown solution which broadcasts a unique Lockdown School Alert. Our multi-button control panel enables you to broadcast emergency alerts, such as lockdown, evacuation and panic alarm at reception. As well as routine announcements such as class change, lunch or the end of school, in the event of an emergency this enables specific alarms to be broadcast across the entire site. That way, both staff and pupils know what’s happening and what action to take.
