This is our part from what was published in the March edition of Buildings.com

“The only barrier to hardening a facility is the checkbook,” notes Chris Grollnek, an active shooter prevention expert with Countermeasure Consulting Group. “Your budget dictates how far your security can go.”

REVIEW SECURITY FUNDAMENTALS
You don’t have to put a moat around your property or turn it into a fortress to increase security. Turn to the basic rules of CPTED – crime prevention through environmental design. This concept limits opportunities for crime through strategic design choices. Focus on visibility, access control, and territorial reinforcement.

“You don’t want to rely too heavily on only one or two of these principles. That’s putting all of your security eggs in one basket,” cautions Grollnek. “Research shows that each element of CPTED design you add exponentially increases security and safety levels.”
