The SITEPROTECT Lockdown alarm system has been developed primarily for the education market to protect and warn of an intruder or other critical event. The system comprises of a control panel and remote devices that connect to each other through a wireless mesh network. Alarm devices can be located in each teaching area, so when the alarm is activated the staff and pupils will follow the lockdown procedure. An alarm device also has a call point which can be activated by the staff member in any area just like a fire call point system. Once a lockdown alarm is activated, up to 480 units can sound simultaneously throughout a school or college. The SITEPROTECT Lockdown Alarm control panel can also notify a responsible person of an active alarm, to quickly identify the location of the activation, and to alert the authorities.

The system can be interfaced with the premises public address system using an Input/Output device, this allows a voice message to be broadcast in the event of a lockdown. Further features can be added such as the Auto Dialler, which can communicate an emergency to up to 50 users.
