Stop the Prop: propped open doors present a security risk
Propping open a door may be convenient, but it’s unsafe. An easy safety solution that does not require additional costs or technology is ensuring that campus or facility doors are properly latched and not propped open. Doors propped open during and after school give outside threats easy access to your campus or office.
