Protection built for K-12
Three products, one platform. Access, intrusion, and visitor management share one operational picture, so a check-in, an access event, and a lockdown are never separate systems.
Access Control
Secure classrooms, offices, and common areas from one cloud or on-premises platform.
Control every door
Manage every entrance across one school or a whole district from a single platform.
Access by role and schedule
Students, staff, contractors, and visitors get exactly the access their role needs, updated instantly as the year changes.
Tight control, welcoming campus
Discreet readers and mobile credentials keep access controlled without making the school feel like a fortress.
Intrusion Connect
Protect buildings after the last bell, on nights, weekends, and holidays.
Protect empty buildings
Detect after-hours entry, forced doors, and access to restricted areas like IT suites, labs, and medical rooms.
Detection triggers response
Intrusion panels connect to access control, so a detection event triggers lockdown, alerts, and correlated video.
Fewer false alarms
Verify events with video before dispatching a response.
Acre Identity
Screen every visitor before they are inside, without disrupting the school day.
Screen every visitor
Pre-registration and kiosk check-in with photo ID and automatic watchlist screening issue time-limited badges.
Instant staff alerts
Staff are notified the moment a visitor arrives, with access limited to only the areas they need.
A complete, auditable log
Every visit is recorded, giving schools full accountability over who was on site and when.
Acre Solutions
Every Acre deployment in education is backed by structured services and ongoing support. Your platform is planned, deployed, and supported by people who understand school environments, compliance obligations, and the reality that the school day cannot stop.
Professional Services
Acre Professional Services manages full deployment, from site survey through go-live, phased so buildings stay open and learning continues. Your project lead understands FERPA and state safety-mandate requirements.
Acre Care
Acre Care provides ongoing technical support, software updates, and named account access across your entire platform. Your team gets a clear escalation path and fast, responsive support during every school day.
Permissions are set by role, schedule, or location, so each group gets exactly the access it should.
Offline failover keeps access systems running, and data syncs automatically when the connection returns.
Systems can be configured for drills or live incidents, triggering lockdowns, notifying staff, and restricting access automatically.
Every visitor checks in at a kiosk with photo ID and automatic watchlist screening, receives a time-limited badge, and is recorded in an auditable log.
Yes. Acre works with existing systems, rolls out in phases, and is built to be managed by non-technical staff, with dedicated support.
Acre supports readiness with secure data handling, audit trails, and configurable reporting.
