Glasscock Texas schools install combination of wireless and wired locks for managed access
Glasscock Independent School District, a public school district located in Garden City, Texas, with hundreds of students across two schools, has embarked on Phase Three of a plan to convert to a largely wireless, keyless access-controlled environment, supplemented by some hardwired doors as well. The district ultimately is looking to streamline its security and access within its buildings.
About 18 months ago, Wade Williams of VGI, which is managing the installation of this on-going project, worked with the district to finalize Phase Two plans for more than 70 Allegion wireless locks for the Texas school, managed by an existing 3xLOGIC infinias access control system. Phase Two involved wireless locks for internal classroom doors. Phase One of the project started in late 2018 with 60 exterior doors being fitted with both wireless and wired locks.
