常见问题

What is the difference between lockdown and hold and secure?

Hold and secure means a threat is nearby but not on your property: lock the outside doors and carry on inside. Lockdown means the threat is in or near the building: lock or barricade, hide, stay silent and wait for police.

Should a security guard confront an active attacker?

No. A guard's job is to raise the alarm, help people escape or hide, call 911 and help police with information, keys and maps. Defending yourself is only a last resort when your life is in danger.

What should I do when police arrive?

Stay calm, drop anything in your hands, keep your hands visible with fingers spread, do not run toward officers or point, and follow their instructions.

Do I open the door during a lockdown if someone knocks?

Not unless you have a plan for it. Police or security will announce themselves, and you stay in lockdown until they tell you it is over.
