ERA LAUNCHES LOCKDOWN –
EMERGENCY DOOR SECURITY
» » ERA, THE UK’S LEADING
home security specialist, has
launched Lockdown, the UK’s
first emergency barricade
device designed to provide
high performance security
in the event of a threatening
situation.
ERA’s Lockdown product
is designed for use in
commercial/community
settings with high footfall from
schools and hospitals to travel
hubs, offices, workplaces,
hotels, shopping centres and
leisure/ tourist attractions
including theatres, cinemas,
pubs, bars and restaurants.
Lockdown is simple and
easy to fit (no fumbling with
keys or padlocks) making
doors inaccessible to intruders
and creating a safe hiding
place for civilians in the event
of an attack.
Robust and lightweight,
Lockdown is available for
both single and double doors,
whether inward or outward
swinging and fitted with or
without traditional locks.
ERA’s Group Marketing
and Innovation Director, Will
Butler, said; “Sadly, we now live
in a world where terror isn’t a
distant menace, it can strike at
the heart of our community.
Public and businesses are being
advised by the government and
associated bodies to be extra
vigilant and pre-plan how they
might react if caught up in a
threatening situation. The over-
arching advice being to RUN,
HIDE, TELL and when hiding,
barricade yourself in.
“For example, we are seeing
dummy-runs in schools
where pupils are being
taught what to do in certain
scenarios and the National
Counter Terrorism Security
Office (NaCTSO) has updated
safety advice for employees
suggesting that they develop
dynamic lockdown procedures
and use secondary devices
for ‘invacuation’ rather than
evacuation to barricade
people in a room safely and
keep the external threat out.
“Here at ERA, community
safety is at the heart of our
products, so we are very
pleased by the overwhelmingly
positive response received
at the Security and Counter
Terror Expo at London’s
Olympia earlier this year.”
Tested to PAS24 impact
resistance standards, single
door Lockdown fits doors
from 650mm-1100mm width,
weighs 4kg and takes seconds
to fit. The double door option
fits doors up to 60mm, weighs
1.6kg and again takes seconds
to create a secure barricade
to outside entry. Pricing for
the Lockdown varies and
depends on numbers and
configurations required.
