Lockdown Plan Overview

A Lockdown Plan allows you to change the status of one or more entry points using various trigger methods. These methods include the mobile app, Avigilon Alta Access, designated card credentials presented at a reader, or third-party wired and IoT buttons. Examples of Lockdown Plans include:

  • Locking all entries (e.g., a suspicious package/person scenario).

  • Locking all perimeter entries and unlocking all interior doors (e.g., a lockout procedure).

  • Unlocking all doors within a building (e.g., an open house event).

Info

Lockdown Plan options:
Standard Lockdown Plans are available for all organizations and apply to all zones and entries.
Flexible Lockdown Plans allow you to select specific zones and entries for lockdown.

Non-profits and schools are eligible for free flexible plans. Contact your sales representative or installer to request one for your organization. If you are not a non-profit or school, contact your sales rep or installer to discuss flexible plan options for your organization.
