I can't think of any Emergencies pre-dating 2008 that would have overtly required a lockdown (though since Crashing Down is still in-progress I'm not sure about that one yet).
The 2003 Mary-Sue Invasion might have warranted something similar, but I get the sense that that was a relatively small intrusion rather than the HQ-wide invasion in 2008.
Just a little teaser for the FicPsych story I'm working on. It's set back in the time of the 2008 crises.

…the Mirror Multiverse episode was New Year's Day.
I guess I forgot to ask about that part, too.
Well, I don't think the day is explicitly stated anywhere... is it important to you that it's New Year's Day, or can I run with "time in HQ is weird" and "it makes sense my way"?

…it says on Nick's timeline on the wiki that he died in January 2008. And the Cats need time to find their own way into the prime multiverse.
Time in HQ is weird, I know. It's just that Tawaki, Melpomene, and Dustin are -- hmm, what's a good term for Agents in Temporal Offenses?
Hmm... I guess it would take some time for HQ to come up with an emergency lockdown system, too, if they'd never used one before. (Er, they hadn't, right?)
Oh well. I'll just have to finagle it a bit to keep things connected. This part with the power outage is mainly for giggles, anyway.

Although they may have started thinking about it after that crisis ended, of course.
