Across the globe, correctional facilities are facing growing pressure to modernize outdated security infrastructure - often within tight budgetary and architectural constraints. In this session, we will demonstrate how high-security locking sys tems can be integrated into existing doors without structural modifications, using retrofit solutions that are both efficient, sustainable and future-proof.
Drawing from international use cases, including successful implementations in Eu rope, Asia, and Africa, we will highlight how legacy mechanical locks from third-par ty suppliers were replaced within minutes using our modular systems. The presen tation will also cover technical innovations such as 5-second recoding to restore the safety of the facility in the shortest possible time (e.g. in critical cases of a missing key) and scalable master key hierarchies. Presented by STUV Prison Solutions, a global leader in high-security locking tech nology, this session aims to provide planners, facility operators, and security pro fessionals with practical strategies to enhance institutional and workspace safety - without the cost and complexity of a full-scale rebuild.
