Help save our children with the Classroom Defender
The Fire code was created to allow people to easily exit buildings in the event of a fire. These codes were created in a time when the words ACTIVE SHOOTER were never thought of. The fire code requires all locking devices to be mounted between 40” & 48” off the floor, and they are required to open with 1 motion. Although the code is great for allowing easy egress, this very code has in several school shootings allowed the shooter to “blow out the window, reach in and open the door”. In an active shooter scenario you want to SHELTER people from the violence. The Classroom Defender was designed to be out of reach from the shooter. While this device can possibly save lives, it will not comply with the current fire codes. Several law makers have already told me the State Fire Marshall can make an amendment to allow the use of this device. I need as much support as I can get to ask for this amendment. PLEASE help us protect our children, sign our petition and tell everyone you know to do the same. You can also learn more about the Classroom Defender system at http://www.ClassroomDefender.com
