Door Security for Schools: Technology Features to Increase School Safety
Life Check is a simple but powerful door security system for schools and universities. Fully customizable, it utilizes wireless door sensors, NFC location tags and mobile devices to ensure doors are checked and locked and sensitive areas are regularly monitored.

Simple. Adaptable. Accountable.
Locked doors in schools are a first line of defense for security threats on campus. As a simple and affordable technology solution, Life Check helps schools comply with security policies and regulations, and ensures that door checks happen on time, every time.

Unequaled School Door Security
Create an unlimited number of doors and other locations to monitor. To ensure door safety in schools, personnel must physically touch a mobile device to a mounted location tag to log a door check.
Additionally, a plug-and-play Life Check gateway connects all door sensors without needing the school’s Wi-Fi network. These sensors proactively alert personnel when a door opens at a time it is programmed to be closed. Exclusively a Life Check feature, triggered door sensors must be cleared with a physical tap, adding an extra layer of security.

No Limit on How Many Users can Download the App
Life Check can be used by an unlimited number of SROs, law enforcement officers, and school staff to keep your campus secure. That means one flat rate to put our system in the hands of your entire security community.
-
Quick and Customizable Data Entry
With a single touch, SROs or school personnel can confirm doors are locked or report security issues. Add prompts to make data entry fast and easy. You can also require photos and/or videos with every door check.
-
Customized Alerts and Notifications
Customize the alerts and notifications that are triggered when a policy is not followed or a door sensor is activated. You can use discrete, USB-powered notice lights, app notifications, and emergency alerts by call, text or email. Location tags must be scanned following an alert to show that a door has been secured.
Officers on patrol can move a slider in the app settings to set when they will get alerts, based on how many miles from a school site they are (e.g., give me the alert if I am within 3 miles of any of my schools).
Monitor school security in real time.
-
Administrative Dashboard
Administrators and supervisors have a centralized, live view of the status of every door check. They receive instant alerts for missed checks and triggered door sensors.
-
Real-Time Reports
In addition to instant alerts, administrators and supervisors receive emailed reports highlighting any missed checks or irregularities around school classroom door security.
-
District-Wide Access for Law Enforcement and District Administration
Principals and teachers will only have access to their school’s system, while law enforcement, district administrators and superintendents will have access to real-time views with up-to-date maps for all schools in their district.

“As a school system, the added security and accountability are welcome as we work daily to keep our students safe. The team at Life Check has been excellent as we have implemented this system.”
