Healthcare Security Systems and Hospital Lockdowns
Lockdown and protect patients, staff, and visitors with the LockOut SmartBoot System
Protection for those
in your care
Healthcare facilities are built to care for those in need, and sometimes that care means defending those inside your facility from a dangerous person. The LockOut System combines physical door barricade devices designed to lockdown rooms and large areas with alert and notification systems designed to both warn occupants that a threat has been recognized so they can deploy their door barricade, and provide instant notification for law enforcement that a dangerous situation has occurred.

How the lockOut System Works
The LockOut SmartBoot System combines our physical door barricade, The Boot® and our patented Smart System as well as our Highly Reflective Rapid Response Placards and Ballistics Shields to create a comprehensive healthcare lockdown and security system. With these components fully integrated, the SmartBoot System has the ability to:
- Lockdown a room inside your healthcare facility using The Boot® door barricade device
- Indicate the lockdown level within your healthcare facility as either a full lockdown or soft lockdown based on the color of the LockOut SmartLights throughout the facility
- Instantly alert police dispatch that a lockdown has occurred through the LockOut mobile application, which is tied directly to the police dispatch application
- Help building occupants and first-responders quickly identify rooms using the Highly Reflective Rapid Response Room Placards
- Protect windows from attempted entry with the LockOut Ballistics Shields deployed on all windows and glass doors
