Why are schools wide open?

We have the technology to lock down all the classroom doors when anything triggers an elevated concern. Classrooms doors will allow anyone to exit, but no one to enter during this time. Access Control companies want thousands per door to do this, but it can be done for 10% of that using an idea that no one else thought of. A simple idea that I am patenting as we speak. And our kids can be safe.

But schools are horrible, laborius labyriths to do ANYTHING with. Technology enters the school setting very slowly, if at all. Even when the price is low.

This is the time when technology should be embraced to protect our children. Gunmen should not be allowed to roam through schools or universities killing teachers and students. There is no excuse for this total lack of concern for safety.

My product lets lockdown occur by building, school, district, city... It is a hierarchical system, and the lockdown can be invoked by first responders, teachers, administrators or anyone with permission to do so.

Very simple, very safe, very effective. Many lives would have been saved already.
