Unfortunately schools, colleges and universities have become increasingly vulnerable to crime and violence and security breaches in schools do happen, both during class time and after hours.
Currently in the US a school is three times more likely to be burglarized than a business, and vandalism costs to schools total more than $1 billion a year. Fortunately the numbers are far better here in Western Canada, but we still have to be aware that security is now part of our every day lives and that educators need to concentrate on teaching, not on how to make their environment safer.
Here at Sonitrol we understand the unique challenges faced by public and private schools, universities, colleges and educational institutions. We specialize in providing innovative alarm systems and security solutions that secure public and private buildings, that will improve overall safety, and protect students, educators, and the general public.
We can help secure educational institutions with the best security systems available and stay within your budget. We offer protection against fire, theft, vandalism and unwanted visitors for your school with a fully integrated Sonitrol system. The cost of repairing vandalism by far outweighs the cost of the security systems that can prevent vandalism from happening.
Sonitrol CCTV camera systems offer daytime video surveillance, emergency-only surveillance, night-time recording, alarm-activated recording and many more video monitoring options. We will work with you to find the right system to accomplish your security goals and keep your facilities safe for students, faculty, staff and visitors. SonaVision can detect taggers and vandals who damage school property and sports fields.
Vandals, trespassers and thieves can't hide from Sonitrol. Our unique audio detection approach provides comprehensive coverage and detects attempted break-ins through ceilings, walls, doors and windows. The moment questionable sounds are detected, such as a window being broken, the system will alert a Sonitrol operator at our central monitoring centre who will determine the nature of the threat and immediately contact the Police.
Controlling and monitoring people in buildings and sensitive areas is becoming critical to school security. Sonitrol's managed access control systems allow educators and administrators to limit access to designated areas or throughout facilities by time of day, employee, or other criteria and can report all activity in protected areas by individual, delivering a vital management reporting tool.
Arson is a leading cause of damage to educational facilities. Sonitrol's early detection and verification capabilities are crucial to preventing serious loss. We offer around-the-clock monitoring of smoke and heat detectors, sprinkler systems, temperature monitoring and pull stations.
When a crisis happens, it is imperative that help gets there fast. We offer panic buttons to make sure that the Police are notified of emergencies, even if a phone is not accessible.
