New installation at a school
Plan activities with school leadership or facility management and keep student routes free. Discuss differences between school days and holidays. Explicitly define responsibilities; a functional arrangement does not mean that every staff member needs the same access. For new installation, we first discuss detection zones, access points and who responds to alerts with school management and facilities management. We start with the situation and then only choose equipment and mounting points. Wireless does not mean random placement: metal, floors and distance determine the reliability of each detector. We also consider how authorized users can arm and disarm the system and know who handles an alarm.
