Kiosk
Wall-mounted touchscreens in classrooms and offices give teachers and staff intuitive control over everyday communication and emergency response. Authorized users can manage workflows, play or mute classroom audio, silence bell schedules, and use built-in two-way communication for fast coordination with staff offices.
Message Boards

During critical events, they provide clear, location-specific instructions such as where to call in or how to respond to an active situation. Available in small and large formats, message boards are ideal for classrooms, offices, hallways, and common areas, ensuring every occupant stays informed and connected.
Status Light
Status lights provide instant visual cues for classroom check-ins, emergency states, and active audio—and can also be customized for everyday use. Schools use them to signal testing in progress, direct parents during conferences, indicate lab experiments, or request custodial support – creating a clear, flexible communication tool for any situation.
4-Button Call Station
Customizable button station enables fast, reliable communication with programmable buttons to activate distinct automated workflows such as nurse, maintenance, or duress.
Emergency Mobile App & Panic Button
School staff can rapidly initiate a building emergency from their mobile app or strategically located panic buttons. The app also provides a real-time view of which classrooms are checked in as safe.
Integrated Hardware Package
Includes the essential communication and coordination tools that keep every part of your campus connected—an administrative console for two-way audio and live paging, high-clarity ceiling and wall speakers, paging microphones, and synchronized analog or digital clocks for precise timekeeping.
Mapping Software
