MINNESOTA LAWMAKERS PROPOSE SCHOOL SAFETY LEGISLATION

"3D Response Systems works with school districts to create a multi-layered plan which focuses on cover, concealment and communication. Polinksi explained they equip classrooms with a police button that immediately sends a message to 911 and alerts law enforcement of the room number that called for help.

“Once they hit that button, it sends the message and it also activates 1,200 pounds of magnetic pressure on the door and it sets off the alert system inside and outside of the building,” he said. “There’s [also] ballistic panels, magnets, window enhancements, so on and so forth, that are installed in a school and installed very tactically through the eyes of a SWAT type of mindset.”
