During a lockdown in prison, the ability to send or receive mail can be restricted depending on the facility's rules and the specific circumstances of the lockdown. Generally, prisons prioritize security during lockdowns, which may lead to delays or temporary suspensions of mail services. However, some facilities may still allow limited mail access for essential communications. It's best to check with the specific prison for their policies during lockdown periods.
At the prison. Calling will do no good. Prison officials will not share the current security status of the prison over the phone, and you could only know by visiting the prison because, depending on the reason for lockdown, there will either be a waiting room full of family members waiting to visit, or they will not allow civilians to enter. No one will tell you officially that the prison is on lockdown.

The length of a prison lockdown can vary depending on the circumstances. It can range from a few hours to several days. Lockdowns are typically implemented to maintain security and control within the prison, such as during a disturbance or when there is a threat to the safety of staff or inmates.
A "Lockdown" is where all prisoners are locked in their rooms or whatever room they happen to be in at the time. This is used during times that the officials need to command total control within the prison. Times of riot, fights, searches, etc...
Prisoners are not allowed to handle money when they are in prison but they do have accounts that they can use for purchasing items from commissary and outside vendors.
The cause of the whole lockdown may begin with somebody attempting to escape, a missing person, riot, death of an inmate, or a fight. But in the end everyone is obligated to stay in their cells until further notice. The most dangerous inmates go into a separate part of the prison where they may not see more than an hour of daylight.
It may depend entirely on the type of prison, or the prison administration rules as to whether this activity is allowed or not. Offhand, I would say that it is more likely dis-allowed than allowed.
