How Entry Shield Works
A complete security ecosystem that detects threats, monitors access points, and notifies your team instantly—all working together seamlessly.
The Entry Shield Ecosystem
Four integrated layers of protection working together to secure your facility.
Detection
Screen & Flow weapons detection at entry points
Door Management
Door monitoring on interior & exterior doors
Physical Barriers
Window laminate to delay forced entry
Notification
Instant alerts to your entire team
Weapons Detection: Step by Step
From entry to alert in under 2 seconds.
Person Approaches Entry
A visitor, student, or employee approaches your facility entrance. They walk at normal speed carrying their personal items—bags, phones, keys. No stopping required.
Normal Entry Flow
No queues, no removal of items
CEIA OpenGate Scans
As they walk through the Screen & Flow system, CEIA's advanced electromagnetic sensors scan for weapons. Algorithms distinguish between threats (guns, knives) and harmless items (phones, wallets, keys).
Algorithmic Detection
Near-zero false alarms
Entry Continues
If no threat is detected, the person continues into the facility without any interruption. They may not even realize they were screened. 3,600+ people per hour can flow through seamlessly.
All Clear
Seamless entry experience
Photo Captured
If a weapon is detected, a high-resolution photo is instantly captured of the person. This happens automatically—no manual intervention required.
Photo Documentation
Instant visual record
Team Notified Instantly
The photo and alert are sent simultaneously to every member of your security team via the Entry Shield app. Everyone knows who, what, and where—instantly.
Simultaneous Notification
Entire team informed at once
Coordinated Response
Your team responds knowing exactly who to look for. The photo eliminates confusion. Response is immediate and coordinated—no time lost relaying information.
