About
Lockdown Alert turns the screens a school already has into a lockdown alarm.
Staff start a lockdown by dialling a number on the existing phone system, pressing a wireless panic button, pressing a door intercom button, sending an email or tapping a button in the web portal. Within seconds every Windows PC, Android device, interactive panel, TV and signage screen at the site shows a full-screen alert with a siren. On Windows PCs it wakes sleeping screens and shows over the lock screen, without anyone signing in.
Drills appear in amber with a TEST badge, so nobody mistakes practice for the real thing. Every alert is recorded: who started it, how, when, and how many screens showed it, giving a drill history to show governors and inspectors. In a multi-academy trust each school is its own site.
It deploys through Microsoft Intune and Google Admin, and data is hosted in the UK. Schools pay from £395 a year per site, with no cabling and no installation visit. 30-day free trial, no card needed.
