Springboard Media Announces New Partnership with HAVEN Lock to Help The Growing Need to Address Active Threats in PA Schools

Springboard Media has recently been named the exclusive Platinum Partner in PA for HAVEN Lock to introduce a revolutionary new commercial lock solution to the education market in Pennsylvania. 

A study conducted by the FBI in 2013* found that nearly 70% of active shooter incidents end within five minutes, while the average national police response rate is around nine minutes. HAVEN Lockdown™ gives teachers, administrators, and staff the ability to individually lock down rooms within seconds, helping to bridge this crucial time gap. This provides the access control they need while providing peace of mind to students, staff, patients, and first responders. 

“Finding the right balance between empowering our school staff to protect the children walking in their classrooms each day and not making a school feel scary or prison-like is incredibly challenging and we think Lockdown provides that balance,” said Everett Katzen, owner of Springboard Media.

“What attracted us most to HAVEN Lock as a company, and specifically the Lockdown product, is how much thought they put into each aspect of the lock,” explained Katzen. “The extensive background research they’ve done on how to create effective school security plans and the endless list of relevant regulations really showed a commitment to making a product that would be well-received, and that would ultimately protect our communities. They have never once taken the task at hand lightly and truly understand what is at stake in getting this right.” 

WIth Springboard’s background in installing technology into classrooms for 15+ years, we know and understand the education industry and look forward to helping make PA communities feel a little more secure.

Springboard Media has been a trusted technology resource in the Greater Philadelphia area helping consumers, businesses and schools with their IT, computer, and automation needs since 1996. HAVEN is a Tennessee-based manufacturing company founded by former members of the military and law enforcement that have used their expertise to create defense systems like HAVEN Lockdown™ to put an end to active violence in our schools, places of worship, and offices.
