Kids don't respond well to shrieking alarms and flashing lights. They respond to clear instructions: "Walk calmly to the nearest exit." Our voice evacuation systems guide students and staff with spoken directions, and integrate with lockdown systems so everyone knows exactly what to do.
"Fire in building B. All students please exit through the south doors." Clear, calm instructions work better than panic-inducing alarms.
Fire and security threats require different responses. Our system coordinates both so administrators make informed decisions about which doors to lock and which exits to use.
24/7 protection in residential buildings with interconnected alarms. Fire in one room alerts the entire floor. RAs get mobile notifications even when off-duty.
Bunsen burners, chemicals, wood shop equipment—labs have unique fire risks. Our detectors are calibrated for these environments, reducing nuisance alarms while catching real hazards.
Cooking smoke is the biggest source of school false alarms. Our heat detectors in kitchen areas and intelligent smoke sensors in dining areas distinguish between lunch preparation and actual fires.
High ceilings need specialized detection. Beam detectors cover large open spaces that would require dozens of ceiling-mount units. Perfect for gyms, theaters, and assembly halls.
Standard protection with discrete ceiling-mount detectors that don't distract from learning. Wireless options for older buildings where running cable would be disruptive.
"We had fire drills where half the students didn't know what was happening. The voice system changed everything—'This is a fire drill. Please walk to your assigned exit.' Now drills take 90 seconds less and students actually know where to go."

Young children respond better to clear spoken instructions than loud alarm bells. "Walk calmly to the west exit" is more effective than a shrieking tone. Voice systems also allow different messages for different situations—fire evacuation is different from lockdown, and students need to know which is which.
Our pull stations can include tamper-resistant covers that require intentional action to activate. More importantly, every activation is logged with location and time, making it easy to identify patterns. Schools report 80% reduction in false pulls after installation.
Sadly, this is common. Our photoelectric detectors are better at distinguishing between cooking smoke and fire smoke, but we also recommend regular student education. The system logs all alarm events, so RAs can identify problem rooms and address the behavior.
Yes. A lockdown and a fire can happen simultaneously—and the response is very different. Our system integrates with your security platform so coordinators see both situations and can make informed decisions about which doors to lock and which evacuation routes to use.
