No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, the one thing everyone can agree upon is that no one wants our children to be in harm’s way. Mass-violence in schools has shown the vulnerability of classrooms. While there is a lot of debate over causes and solutions, SwiftShield offers a simple, cost-effective solution to secure classrooms from entry in a single, efficient step. This is definitely something we, as shooting and hunting enthusiasts, can all get behind because it helps to protect our children from the real threat – the person committing the act.
SwiftShield is a virtually indestructible, reinforced carbon-steel freestanding bracket designed to brace any outward-opening door from being opened from the outside. Inward swinging designs are coming soon. It is designed to withstand thousands of pounds of force as well as gun shots and blasts from a shotgun. Models are available for standard and ADA doors and in variations to fit most any style door and frame.
The SwiftShield was developed by people who wanted to find a real solution to protecting and shielding our kids & teachers from a potential violent attack when they are in class. As we have seen from tragic events, classrooms may be vulnerable in the event of an actual emergency – with an unsecured door being the only thing standing between our children and disaster. Security guards, or armed and trained staff may offer protection, but the one thing they cannot always guarantee is time. SwiftShield gives school security and law enforcement additional time to do the job they are highly trained to do. It gives teachers the peace of mind and time to assist our kids as only they can, in the event of an emergency.
