The school is trying to prevent students from damaging equipment. Any student can report who caused the damage and, after guilt is determined, get a reward. The guilty student then pays for the damages plus the reward, which is set at 10 percent of the replacement and installation cost of the damaged equipment. Some students, likely with the help of their parents, have paid as much as $500 just for the reward.
Not every school has a reward program, so protect your equipment, such as emergency and exit signs, with our ready-to-ship wire guards available in many sizes and materials. Use our handy Guard Sizing Chart to find your perfect fit, or build it to your specifications with our Custom Guard Builder. Wire guards also do a great job protecting gym clocks from flying objects. Watch this fun, short video about wireguards saving a locker room sign from the football team.
Finally, our tamper dye, a food-grade solution applied to a fire alarm pull station handle, will help catch culprits “blue-handed” because their hands will get covered with a blue dye when they pull the handle. Administrators just need to put on a pair of gloves before pulling the handle for a fire drill.
Wire guards, tamper-resistant security brackets and tamper dye can be your ounce of prevention in protecting your valuable equipment. I think Benjamin Franklin would be proud.
