“These are the times that try men's souls.”
In your case I would not put a Schrader valve in. Just plumb a tee in line, ball valve with with a quick disconnect for whatever airline fitting you have in air tools, hoses. To could make a cap for line right there at ball valve just for protection in case some kid or adult felt the need to open ball valve not knowing what it is. However, once they got wet opening it under pressure they should close it. I hate Schrader valves with a passion seems they always fail over time in liquid in tires, etc. Seems it would be easier to just have quick disconnect and ball valve for what you need.

I keep a airline disconnect and 3/4" fitting in my truck just for cases for blowing out hot water heaters for when installing hot water heaters. Sure easy to blow them out before moving them.
