Deter Active Shooters

Our mission is simple: deter an active shooter until the police can respond. By equipping schools with cutting-edge protection systems, we provide a tangible layer of defense that not only delays potential attackers but also empowers school staff to act swiftly and effectively.

The Growing Threat

The increase in active shooter incidents in schools is alarming. Data from the K-12 School Shooting Database shows fatalities inside schools occur at three times the rate of those outside. This stark reality emphasizes the urgent need for proactive and enhanced security measures to safeguard students and educators.

How Do We Help Schools Stay Safe?

Protecting people by providing innovative solutions to deter and defend against active shooter threats is what we do.

We are dedicated to creating state-of-the-art door and window shields that blend seamlessly into classroom environments, offering safety without disrupting the nurturing atmosphere essential for learning. By empowering schools with discreet and advanced security systems, we prioritize both safety and educational growth. Our commitment goes beyond providing products; we aim to instill peace of mind in school communities by fostering an environment where safety and education coexist.
