Creating a safe learning environment requires more than physical locks and periodic checks. Effective school safety depends on continuous situational awareness—knowing what doors are open, what rooms are occupied, when a door is forced, when a drill has occurred, and whether communication systems work. DoorCheckr provides this awareness through its elegant combination of sensors, automation, and optional video integrations.
At the core of the platform are DoorCheckr Smart Sensors, low-profile devices installed on classroom doors, exterior doors, and emergency exits. These sensors detect open/close states, propped-open conditions, battery health, signal quality, and forced-entry signatures. All data flows securely into the district’s DoorCheckr dashboard, where staff see live building status at a glance.
This level of visibility directly supports PASS Tier 1–4 compliance. Tier 1 requires basic monitoring and secure doors; Tier 2 calls for automated reporting; Tier 3 expects integrated alerting; and Tier 4 encourages advanced automation and incident response. DoorCheckr satisfies each tier by turning every door into a real-time safety endpoint.
Presence sensors further enhance classroom awareness. They help identify when rooms are occupied, assist in lockdown confirmation, support fire drill compliance, and provide verification for MSIP-6 L10 occupancy-related requirements.
DoorCheckr also integrates with IP cameras for environments needing visual confirmation or two-way communication. When a sensor event occurs—such as an after-hours opening or a forced-entry signature—the system can automatically display the associated camera feed. PASS recommends video integration for Tier 3–4 environments, and DoorCheckr offers this seamlessly.
All sensor and video activity is instantly documented. This means districts can generate a complete audit trail for drills, emergencies, threat assessments, communication tests, and yearly compliance reviews. For MSIP-6 L10, this automation reduces complexity dramatically. Instead of pulling logs manually, administrators click Generate Report and receive a fully formatted PDF verifying district compliance.
By combining sensors, cameras, automated alerts, and reporting, DoorCheckr equips schools with a modern, affordable safety ecosystem that works continuously—all day, every day.
