in seconds in a crisis situation,

London.
Stuart Costigan, product

a busy show and were delighted
to see a great deal of interest in
Lockdown, from a whole range
of sectors including hospitality,
emergency services, armed forces,
security consultants who advise
on security issues associated
with commercial properties as
well as close protection security
personnel.
“The quality of interest
was very good indeed and is a
strong indication that there is a
ready market for an innovative
and versatile product such as
Lockdown.”
