Introducing PopAlert®
A Smarter, Faster Way to Keep Schools and Organisations Safe
Creating a safe environment is no longer optional. With rising expectations around emergency preparedness and the upcoming requirements of Martyn’s Law, schools and organisations need solutions that are reliable, easy to use, affordable and designed for real-world situations.
This is exactly why we created PopAlert®.
PopAlert® is a modern lockdown and alert system that delivers instant, full-screen notifications across your entire site. Whether it’s a lockdown, a threat outside, or an urgent internal alert, PopAlert® gives staff the ability to warn everyone quickly and clearly — without relying on phones, cloud systems or complicated technology.
Installed by our team and ready to use from day one, PopAlert® combines powerful simplicity with professional-grade reliability.
What Makes PopAlert® Different?
Most lockdown solutions are either extremely expensive, overly complex, or built around old technology. PopAlert® takes a completely different approach by focusing on what organisations actually need: speed, clarity, simplicity and reliability.
Where many systems depend on the internet or mobile networks, PopAlert® works inside your building using a dedicated on-site control unit installed by our engineers. This means alerts work even during network outages, emergencies or high-traffic moments when other systems fail.
PopAlert® is designed to be simple enough for anyone to use, yet powerful enough to integrate with outdoor alarms, sirens and safety hardware — all without the usual cost or disruption.
Professionally Installed and Ready to Go
Unlike DIY systems that require weeks of setup, PopAlert® is installed and fully configured by our team. We handle everything — from mounting the control unit to testing your alerts and ensuring every receiver is connected.
Once installed, all you need to do is open the PopAlert® app on your device and you’re ready to trigger alerts instantly.
There’s no wiring to run, no servers to maintain and no complicated IT work. PopAlert® fits neatly into your existing environment.
Instant, Full-Screen Alerts That Staff Cannot Miss
When an alert is triggered, PopAlert® takes over every connected screen with a bold, clear, full-screen message. This ensures:
Immediate, site-wide visibility
No confusion or hesitation
Staff and pupils understand what action to take
Alerts override distractions, background apps and noise
PopAlert® replaces outdated email chains, phone trees and unreliable messaging apps with a system that cuts through instantly.
Supports Your Responsibilities Under Martyn’s Law
The upcoming Martyn’s Law (Protect Duty) will require venues to implement stronger safety procedures and reliable ways of warning people during an incident.
PopAlert® directly supports these expectations by offering a fast, controlled and consistent way to communicate in an emergency. It gives you a practical and affordable foundation for compliance — without the infrastructure costs associated with large-scale lockdown systems.
Outdoor Coverage with Alertex Wireless Lockdown Alarm
One of the biggest gaps in emergency communication is outdoor spaces — playgrounds, car parks, sports fields and external buildings.
To solve this, PopAlert® integrates seamlessly with the Alertex Wireless Lockdown Alarm system. Alertex is a battery-powered, wireless solution designed specifically for outdoor lockdown alerts.
Together, PopAlert® and Alertex provide campus-wide coverage:
PopAlert triggers Alertex sirens and beacons for outdoor zones
Outdoor Alertex triggers can activate PopAlert indoors
Everyone receives the alert at the same moment
This creates a complete inside-and-outside lockdown solution that is fast, reliable and affordable.
Connects With Your Existing Safety Equipment
PopAlert® can also activate many existing safety devices through a simple relay connection. This means it can work alongside:
Strobe lights
Sirens
Door access systems
PA interfaces
Wireless safety hardware
Custom emergency equipment
If your building already has safety tools in place, PopAlert® can bring them all together into one unified system.
A Cost-Effective Alternative to Traditional Lockdown Systems
Traditional lockdown systems often require:
Expensive control panels
Heavy wiring
Specialist servers
Complex installations
Large maintenance costs
PopAlert® removes all of this.
You get a powerful, modern, whole-site alert system at a fraction of the cost — and without the disruption.
This makes PopAlert® ideal for schools, academies, colleges, offices, care homes, local authorities, retail locations and any organisation seeking a practical, budget-friendly safety solution.
A Modern Solution Built for Real-World Safety
PopAlert® is more than just an alert system — it’s a complete communication platform that brings together internal screens, outdoor alarms and safety devices into one simple, reliable solution.
It’s installed for you, easy to operate, and designed to work when you need it most.
If you want a lockdown system that is:
Simple to use
Fast to deploy
Professional in design
Affordable to implement
Compliant with modern safety expectations
then PopAlert® is the solution built exactly for you.
