There were 4 or 5 of these per floor at the parochial school I went to from K-8th grade. Loud is an understatement. Reaction when it went off? Skipped heart beat and utter shock :shock:
If you manage to get these, send me a PM. I am interested in buying one.
I wont manage to get these. The school is still using them and have no plans of replacing the system. I will be teaching after school programs there this fall. I see them on ebay from time to time.
Reminds me of my old HS before it was done over. Tile half way up the walls, perforated particle board ceilings…very '50s
Yep, reminds me of my middle school too, built in 1957-1958. They even have those same pull stations! (But the alarms are older flush-mount Federal horns that look like the current explosion-proof ones; they have an old Gamewell FlexAlarm system.)
Were these on continuous? :S
