Guard Shack

Some people call it a guard shack and some people call something else.  Shack, shelter, booth or building, we don’t really care what you call these structures as long as you call us to let us show you what we can do.

We manufacture prefabricated guard shacks to create immediate, highly functional space that provides comfort and safety for security personnel and the sensitive equipment they use in the performance of their work.  Because we are a custom fabricator we can create a wide range of designs that include an endless array of options with unique design features to personalize each structure.

Our pre-engineered design is a great alternative to a conventionally built building for many reasons but most important is speed.  Because we construct the guard shack at our factory, then ship directly to your site, we eliminate the considerable down time you would experience building this structure with conventional construction methods.  

To better accommodate the different style preferences, physical environments and other considerations we offer three primary construction options.  Duraluminum is a maintenance free all anodized aluminum prefab structure that is ideal for a wide range of applications and is typically our most economical construction option.  Both of the other prefabricated construction options we offer utilize steel as the primary construction material.  Durasteel is an all steel structure with a 14 gauge seamless exterior surface.  Durasteel’s are a welded structure, constructed with custom steel shapes that enable us to create custom features like ballistic rated walls and windows, custom wall and roof designs along with a long list of other unique design features.  The last construction option we offer is Durasteel PC.  This variation of our Durasteel product line includes preformed steel panels inserted into a welded steel frame to create the wall of the structure.  This process is less labor intensive than the seamless walls we create for a Durasteel guard shack.  Because of this the Durasteel PC is more economically priced that Durasteel.  Additionally, the steel panel inserts can be removed and replaced if damaged.

We use time tested construction methods and the highest quality materials to create guard shacks that will provide years of maintenance free service.  Our buildings are built to withstand the heavy usage of a round the clock security operation.  You can rely on our 40 plus years of experience of producing guard shacks that meets your specific project requirements. To further build your confidence in our products we offer the industries best warranties.
