Applications for Jails, Prisons or Correctional Facilities

The system can help you centralize the control of people in high-security applications like correctional facilities. Centralizing your foot traffic control efforts benefits your security detail, and enhances your staff’s life safety program. This can also be beneficial in reducing the staff required to observe visitors and inmates.

Furthermore, during times of inmate unrest, remote door access control from a central location allows you to lock down the facility. Because of the volatile nature of the stockade, controlling entry to various locations is a valuable practice that helps to protect the guard staff.

When you can control access to different areas of the facility during riots and normal correctional activity, you can maintain the highest quality of service and safety of your coworkers. Typical uses are shown in the table below.
