As we highlighted previously in our master key systems blog, these systems can be a viable option for educational premises due to the ease of use when working with several locks.
Not only are they very secure against external break ins, but restricting the level of access pupils and visitors have to certain areas, means you can combat any internal theft that might be occurring.
A key cabinet increases security and staff accountability by allowing keys to be signed in and out; some of our larger (deeper) key safes are designed to accommodate bunches of keys, which would be suitable for a janitor or head teacher who had several keys.
Security cabinets are an essential to maintain a high level of security in educational establishments & buildings with numerous rooms.
Key Cabinets or key safes come in various sizes with the capacity to hold over 200 keys.
Sensitive documents such as staff and student information are kept on school premises, multi-purpose security cabinets are an ideal solution to guard against unauthorised access to documents, or any other valuables.
The dimensions of our range start at 1000mm in height, allowing the security cabinet to sit comfortably in the corner of a room with minimal disruption.
Unfortunately, arson is not uncommon in schools – along with the impact it has on the students and cost to repair the premises. Documents such as student information, exam papers, important learning resources and staff documents can be lost.
Our fire safes offer protection against fire for up to 120 minutes; meaning there is a better chance the documents will be retrieved. Not only this but with high cash ratings they can also protect against thieves.
In schools, some buildings may be left unprotected at night, such as outdoor sports facilities like pavilions – padlocks are classic simple and effective deterrents of theft, vandalism and unauthorised entry.
