About Classroom Lockdown Emergency Kits

During a lockdown or security emergency, having immediate access to the right supplies can help teachers protect and support students while maintaining a safe, secure classroom environment. Classroom Lockdown Emergency Kits are designed to provide essential resources needed when movement is restricted and outside assistance may be delayed. At EmergencyKits.com, we recognize the importance of reliable school safety solutions that help educators respond confidently to lockdown situations, including active threats and other security-related incidents. Our classroom lockdown kits are carefully assembled with practical supplies that support student safety, comfort, and communication, helping schools strengthen preparedness and maintain greater peace of mind during critical events.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions about classroom lockdown kits, from what's included to capacity, storage, and shelter-in-place readiness — because every student deserves to feel safe when it matters most.

What should be in a classroom lockdown kit?

A classroom lockdown kit includes an emergency toilet with privacy shield, toilet bags, water, high-calorie food bars, first aid, emergency blankets, a flashlight, a whistle, and a window covering. Lockdowns can last several hours, so sanitation is as critical as food and water.

How long can a class shelter in place with one lockdown kit?

Standard lockdown kits sustain a full classroom for 3 to 8 hours, which covers the vast majority of lockdown incidents. For multi-day scenarios (shelter-in-place after an earthquake or chemical release), pair the lockdown kit with a 3-day classroom kit.

Does the lockdown kit include a portable toilet for long incidents?

Yes. Every lockdown kit includes a portable emergency toilet with waste bags and a privacy screen. Sanitation is required because bathrooms are typically off-limits during a lockdown.

Are these kits compliant with state active-shooter requirements?

Yes. Our classroom lockdown kits are built to the widely referenced ALICE and Standard Response Protocol (SRP) guidelines. Check your state and district active-shooter plan for specific product requirements and add site-specific items (door blockers, specific tourniquets).

Where should a lockdown kit be stored in the classroom?

Store the kit in a locked cabinet or closet that the teacher can access quickly without leaving the room. Avoid hallways and communal storage. Label clearly and include a one-page use guide inside the lid.

Do lockdown kits include privacy screens or door blockers?

Yes. Every kit includes a privacy shield for the portable toilet. Door blockers are not included by default because door hardware varies; add a district-approved door blocker separately.

How many students can one kit support?

Kits are generally configured for 30 students, but other options are available — including custom kits. For oversized rooms (auditoriums, cafeterias), combine multiple kits.
