How many doors should be opened at one time when walking through a sally port?

When walking through a sally port, it is essential to only open one door at a time to maintain security and control over the area. The sally port is designed as a secure entry point that typically consists of two or more doors. By opening only one door at a time, it prevents the potential for unauthorized access and reduces the risk of escape or unwanted entry. This controlled method ensures that the area remains secure, allowing personnel to monitor the transition effectively.

Opening multiple doors simultaneously would compromise the security of the sally port, as it could allow individuals to escape or enter the facility without being properly screened. Following this protocol enhances the safety of both staff and inmates in correctional settings.
