Can a Barricade Device really help keep your school safer?
Video ads for these devices show a "Bad Guy" trying with all his might to gain entrance to a classroom protected by a barricade device, only to fail repeatedly. But what happens if the Bad Guy was to use the device to lock himself INSIDE a classroom...with hostages? Now nobody can get inside...
Barricade devices can't tell whether you're trying to get in to help, or to cause harm.
Or what if someone inside desperately needed to get help, but didn't know how to remove the device? NFPA building codes do not permit any devices which require specialized knowledge to achieve egress (get out of the space).
