Campus Safety and Security Systems
Campus security is not about hardware presence. It is about controlling movement, maintaining visibility, and preserving accountability across large, dynamic environments. Schools and institutional campuses face unique challenges where systems must function during normal operations and hold together under stress. We design and correct campus safety systems with those realities in mind.
Many campuses inherit access control and video systems built in isolation. Doors function independently of cameras, policies rely on assumptions, and visibility breaks down the moment something unexpected happens. These gaps are rarely obvious until an incident forces the system to perform.
Access Control for Schools and Campus Environments
Access control is the foundation of campus safety. Doors, gates, and controlled entry points must enforce who can move, when they can move, and where access is permitted. We evaluate and correct access control systems based on real use, not paper policy. This includes door hardware, panels, credential handling, schedules, and auditability.
Systems are designed to support lockdown procedures without improvisation. When a lockdown is initiated, access control must respond immediately and predictably, securing designated areas while maintaining control at perimeter points. Every access event is logged and attributable, allowing administrators to review decisions made during and after incidents.
Video Surveillance for Visibility and Documentation
Video surveillance on campus must provide more than recording. Cameras are positioned for identification and documentation at entrances, corridors, common areas, and perimeter zones where activity concentrates. Attention is given to angles, lighting, and resolution so footage is usable during investigations and compliance review.
AI-driven analytics surface after-hours movement, loitering, and repeat behaviors that blend into daily activity. Facial recognition and license plate recognition may be deployed where appropriate to identify known subjects or vehicles without relying on constant live monitoring.
Environmental sensors
Environmental sensors extend campus safety beyond doors and cameras. Air-quality and vapor detection sensors are used to identify smoking, vaping, and unauthorized substance use in restrooms, locker rooms, and other low-visibility areas. When triggered, these sensors generate time-stamped events that are correlated with nearby video and access activity, allowing staff to verify incidents without constant patrols or confrontation. This creates enforceable documentation while reducing disruption to daily school operations.
