Discreet Entry Screening

Screen guests as they arrive without creating lines, delays, or an intimidating presence. Our systems blend into the environment while providing effective protection during services and events.

  • No pocket emptying or bag checks required
  • Discreet design that fits worship environments
  • Instant alerts to security team
  • Mobile deployment options for special events and temporary setups

Door Monitoring

Know immediately when side doors, fellowship hall entrances, or classrooms are opened during services. Instant push notification or photo/video alerts give volunteer security teams the context they need to respond appropriately. Monitor doors during services—not just before and after.

  • Photo alerts for unauthorized access
  • Service-time monitoring schedules
  • Easy-to-use volunteer interface

  • Reduces flying glass injuries
  • Professional installation minimizes disruption
  • Vision disruption options

Common Questions

No. Our Screen & Flow system allows people to walk through at normal pace without stopping, emptying pockets, or feeling scrutinized. Most congregants won't even realize they're being screened. The goal is invisible protection.
Yes. The Entry Shield app is designed for simplicity. When an alert occurs, volunteers receive a photo and clear information about what happened and where. No technical expertise required.
Many houses of worship use grant funding—federal, state, and foundation grants are available specifically for house of worship security. Our 5-year price lock gives you time to secure funding without worrying about cost increases.
