Every school and university has unique challenges and needs in a dangerous situation, but the common requirement is urgency to act swiftly, decisively, and without hesitation during a crisis.
A wide spectrum of emergencies presents an increasing threat to schools and campuses. Preparedness is vital to mitigate the risk of an active, critical incident.
The escalation in violent situations has forced building owners to take the necessary steps to create a safe environment for students, staff, and visitors. Mass notification for lockdown, emergency, police, and panic buttons is consistently gaining traction nationwide amid a surge in public building violence.
In the midst of chaos, the urgency to act swiftly, decisively, and without hesitation is crucial to saving lives.
Permit the power of early warning with STI’s Stopper® Station push buttons. Capable of being activated with an elbow, the easy-to-use buttons aid in rapid response to critical incidents. The buttons allow users to perform an effective and confident action when needed.
The purpose of a lockdown, emergency, police, panic, or other push button is to help reduce the risk of danger to those on the site, to signal a critical incident, alert law enforcement of a threat, or to safely secure the operation of a public building under duress.
The multipurpose push buttons are available in red, green, yellow, white, blue, or orange, with several button activation choices (including weather-resistant), and standard or custom labeling (in virtually any language). Optional illumination allows users to easily find the push button when lights are turned off for safety reasons or while in a dark corridor. The 12-24 volt LED insert illuminates red, green, or white. Choose to illuminate as a status light (always on) or select a color change when activated (i.e., glows green then changes to red when activated).
Several tough polycarbonate protective covers with or without a siren are available to help combat accidental activation or malicious intent. Stopper Station push buttons are listed to UL and cUL standards and are ADA Compliant.
