Police Department Podiums

For police departments & sheriff's offices

A podium that holds up on camera and carries the department seal.

A police department podium ends up on the evening news, so it has to look like the department. The lecterns on this page were picked for press conferences, academy graduations, award ceremonies and the community meetings held in a precinct multipurpose room. Most take an applied department seal on the front panel, and the sound lecterns handle a room with no house AV.

What departments and sheriff's offices order most:

  • The Conquest and Celebrity hardwood lecterns for the press room, stained to match existing millwork
  • The VH1 Deluxe and K-2 contemporary aluminum podiums for lobbies and community rooms
  • The ZED sound lectern with built-in amplification for graduations and public meetings
  • The Graduate oak lectern for academy commencements

Every order ships free in the lower 48. Send your seal as a vector file and we'll apply it and send a proof before production. We work from municipal purchase orders every week: request a quote, route it through purchasing, and send the PO when it clears.

Common questions

What podium do police departments use for press conferences?
The most common orders are the Conquest and Celebrity hardwood lecterns for the press room and the VH1 or K-2 aluminum podium for a lobby or community room. All of them take an applied department seal on the front panel.
Can you put our department seal on the podium?
Yes. Send the seal as a vector file (.eps, .ai or .pdf) and we'll apply it to the front panel. You'll get a proof to approve before production starts.
Do you have a podium with a built-in microphone and speaker?
Yes. The ZED and other sound lecterns have built-in amplification and wireless mic options, which helps at community meetings and academy graduations held in rooms without house AV.
How do we buy through the city's purchasing process?
Request a written quote, route it through purchasing, and send the purchase order when it clears. We'll supply a W-9 on request and apply your tax-exempt certificate to the order.
Do you offer bullet-resistant podiums?
Yes. Ballistic lecterns are available for facilities that need them. They're a separate product line, so call 800-421-9678 to talk through the protection level you require.
