School Safety Equipment Protecting Student's Safe While the student’s well being is every school’s top priority, accidents happen. In an effort to reduce facility accidents, each state creates its own safety laws for schools. However, each state program is regulated by government organizations such as the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
In addition to following regulations, schools should be proactive and discuss safety plans for high-risk areas such as parking lots, school entrances and so on.
Parking Lot Safety One of the most dangerous areas at schools is the parking lot. One study showed that 80 percent of teens cross streets unsafely, and unsafe pickup/dropoff behavior was observed in one in three drivers.
Bollard posts are useful to reduce crashes on pedestrian walkways. Whether you are attempting to stop vehicles from driving across campus grounds or cyclists cruising too fast, bollard posts can prevent these accidents.
School Entrances The entrance and exit of the school is a place that all students pass through every day. In this area that requires a high degree of vigilance, 24-hour protection is essential. In the entrance area, in addition to students, vehicles will often pass. Now more and more school entrances are installed with anti-collision bollards to protect students, especially fully automatic ones, which can satisfy the control of vehicle entry and exit without affecting the entry and exit of pedestrians.
