McRoberts has been a trusted security partner in the hospitality industry for many decades. In 2013, when New York City union hotels faced a new mandate to install a panic button system for their housekeepers, they turned to McRoberts. The hotels knew they could count on McRoberts as a trusted partner to create the right solution that would meet the requirements and help them preserve brand reputation. In 2018, McRoberts similarly assisted a number of Chicago hotels meet the “Pants On, Hands Off” ordinance. Today, panic buttons for hotel workers are industry-standard.
UrgenTag is an electronic panic button system for hotel workers.
Hotel workers wear panic buttons that emit RFID signals that are picked up by receivers throughout a facility. When staff members push the panic button, an alert, including location, is sent immediately to security for a quick response. Events, alarms and video are all displayed through the UrgenTag software.
For those facilities that require greater location granularity, such as room-level location accuracy, McRoberts provides UrgenTag-Ultra, which leverages ultrasound for more precise location determination.
McRoberts supports its products 24/7/365 via our U.S.-based Technical Support Center. For more information on any of McRoberts products or to obtain a quote, please click here.
