The security vestibule is an advanced security screening system that uses metal detection and interlocking door systems to aid in the detection of armed individuals and deter their entrance into buildings.

The security vestibule meets American Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines and U.S. fire codes. (Please check local fire codes for compliance)

Operation
When the vestibule is empty, the outside door is unlocked and the inside door is locked. To enter the building, an individual enters the outer door, which then closes and locks. The individual steps into the vestibule.  If the presence of more than one person is detected, a violation occurs and the interior door will remain locked. The individual passes through a metal detection system in the vestibule.  If no metal is detected, the inner door unlocks, allowing the individual to pass into the building. If metal is detected, a violation occurs. An alarm sounds and the interior door will remain locked to prevent entry into the facility.

A two-way communication system allows personnel to communicate with an individual inside the vestibule. Authorized personnel within the facility are able to silence the alarm and override door locks via an operator control panel and secondary wireless remote device.

To exit the building, an individual passes through the interior door into the Security Vestibule. When the interior door has closed and locked, the exterior door will unlock.  Personnel can detain an individual within the vestibule by using the operator control panel or secondary wireless remote device.
