NEW YORK, NY, September 24, 2026 (EZ Newswire) — CMS Technology Partners, a provider of security, weapons detection and IT infrastructure solutions, is seeing growing demand from public and private schools, colleges and universities seeking to strengthen campus security through the deployment of Walk-Through Weapons Detectors.
CMS is helping educational institutions take a layered approach to security through technologies including the CEIA OPENGATE® Walk-Through Weapons Detection System and AI CameraVision Threat Detection Software.
CEIA OPENGATE provides high-throughput weapons screening for school entrances, athletic facilities, graduations and other high-traffic environments. Its portable, freestanding design allows individuals to move through with backpacks, purses and bags without routinely divesting their belongings, helping schools add security without creating unnecessary disruption or significant bottlenecks.
AI CameraVision adds another layer of protection by using artificial intelligence with a school’s existing commercial security camera infrastructure to help identify potential visible weapons and other threats throughout monitored areas. This enables schools to enhance the capabilities of existing camera investments without necessarily replacing their current systems.
“Schools and universities are looking at security much more proactively and increasingly asking how technology can provide additional layers of protection without disrupting the school environment,” said Chuck Seergy, founder and CEO of CMS Technology Partners and chairman and CEO of CMS Commercial Finance. “There is no one-size-fits-all approach. With our finance arm, we’re able to work with administrators to understand their campuses, existing infrastructure, security priorities and budgets, and then determine the combination of technologies that makes the most sense.”
Making School Security Technology More Accessible
Recognizing that security investments must compete with other school and municipal budget priorities, CMS offers sales, rentals, leasing and in-house financing programs for qualifying municipalities and private schools.
The flexible model allows schools to evaluate different deployment strategies and, where appropriate, spread technology investments over time rather than funding the full cost upfront. CMS works directly with school administrators, security directors, facilities personnel and municipal officials to assess existing infrastructure and determine the appropriate technology, deployment strategy and financing structure.
“The safety of students is paramount for us at CMS Technology Partners, which is why accessibility is such an important part of the equation,” Seergy said. “We want to work with schools and universities to find solutions that address their security needs while also recognizing the realities of their budgets.”
Expanding Beyond Education
While schools and universities are a growing focus for CMS, demand for advanced threat detection and security technology is extending across other environments where large numbers of people gather.
CMS Technology Partners also works closely with major hospitals and healthcare facilities across the nation.
CMS provides these hospitals and healthcare facilities with security and IT solutions ranging from weapons detection and AI-powered camera threat detection to intrusion and fire detection, cybersecurity and broader IT infrastructure.
“At a time when schools, hospitals, businesses and public spaces are rethinking how they approach security, technology can play an increasingly important role in helping organizations identify potential threats,” Seergy said. “Our focus is on helping customers deploy practical technology that fits their individual environment rather than forcing every organization into the same security model.”
