Lockdown Procedure

Written by Matt Young

A Lockdown prohibits unauthorized personnel into a building.

  • All exterior doors are locked and the main entrance is monitored by administrators. This procedure allows the occupants of a building to continue as normal, but curtails outside activity.
  • A Lock Out is most commonly used when an incident is occurring outside a building.
  • If necessary, contact 911 or your site’s non-emergency police number listed on your Emergency Information Page.
