“It is an ongoing and smooth process. Every year, we enroll new students and staff and take their facial pictures at different angles that go into the computer to create those new templates. We also remove from the system those students who have just graduated.”
“SafeRise is a good and solid system,” Cohen attests. “It not only opens and closes doors; it has other levels of preventive sophistication and awareness. It is always alert and active, creating a secure feeling for the students and the staff. It’s much more than an access control system, it gives you a feeling it is a system you can actually trust.”
Cohen advises that the first line of defense for any school is to keep the doors locked, and the outer perimeter secured. “You want to have perimeter security, surveillance, and monitoring from different places. Having a security guard is always a great thing. You’re always going to have visitors, so its’ good to have a person to monitor any access control system and talk to visitors through an Intercom system. There should be one person dedicated to letting people in.”
His decision to install the SafeRise system gives the school added security and peace of mind.
With school security uppermost as a priority in the hearts of minds of so many, the SafeRise solution from FST21 represents a strong and significant line of defense, letting the good people in and keeping the bad people out.
“It’s a very precise system,” Cohen adds. “It works very well and is upgradeable. And, FST21 is great about giving us the support and solutions we need to meet our needs.”
