The number of police and law enforcement officers who died on the job in 2018 increased by about 12% over the previous year, and firearms-related fatalities are the leading cause of officer deaths. In turn, having site-specific law enforcement security solutions that protect the officers and non-badged employees is vital. The variety and scope of the services required from police stations means that versatile, and adaptable security solutions much be not only available, but also enforceable. Police stations have to be concerned with a variety of risks, and much of it revolves around access control. Metal detectors and scanning devices are mandatory to ensure a safe building. Police stations also need man traps to limit access to vital or sensitive areas. Police stations also have uniformed and civilian employees dealing directly with the public. The Occupational Health and Safety Administration has suggested that convenience stores install bullet-resistant glass barriers, and the same safety standard should apply when considering law enforcement security solutions.
