Cook County Domestic Violence Courthouse

Chicago, Illinois

Kroll Security Group was retained by Campbell Tiu Campbell to complete design, bid and implementation of security systems for a new Domestic Violence Court in downtown, Chicago.

The new facility provides 10 courtrooms with full audio-visual capabilities, and elevators that separate victims of domestic violence from their alleged perpetrators to avoid acts of intimidation, and threats of physical violence which often accompany the court proceedings.

Scope of Work included:

  • Access Control
  • Closed Circuit Television
  • Detention Facilities
  • Duress Alarm
  • Intercom System
  • Intrusion Detection
  • Security Command Center
  • X-Ray Screening  & Metal Detection

At a cost of $64.3 million, the Domestic Violence Court was completed in the summer of 2005.
