What sizes do your guard houses come in?

Although our exterior buildings are prefabricated, they are offered in fully custom sizes, depending on the customers' needs. So, we can accommodate any particular size that you're interested in.  We've designed & manufactured countless guard house projects, so if you can tell us your needs, we can generally figure out the correct size for your project.  Typically, the buildings start at 4'x4' and increase in size from there.

Can you make buildings that are bullet resistant?

What type of roof comes with your booths?

Panel Built offers a few different roof options for our guard houses.  Our most frequent roofing type would be a simple, single slope roof which is composed of a 3" thick composite panel with aluminum skin and a polystyrene core.  We also offer a double-sloped, gable roof system that utilizes that same composite panel. Finally, the buildings can utilize a Four slope, standing seam metal roof design in 20/22 gauge.  All roof options can have custom length overhangs, depending on customer need.

Does the guard house come assembled or broken down?

Panel Built offers guard houses in both pre-assembled and "knock down" forms.  Our pre-assembled buildings are delivered to the job site on a flat-bed truck, offloaded with a forklift, telehandler, or crane, placed on a concrete pad, and then anchored into place. "Knock down" buildings have all components shipped to the site to be assembled there atop a concrete slab.

What window options do you provide?

Because Panel Built's guard houses typically serve a variety of applications, we offer a number of window options to best fit each one.  Our standard window option that you will see on most of our buildings is a 3'8"x3' picture window with 1/4" tempered glass.  Horizontal and vertical sliding glass windows can also be easily implemented, especially when the building is used as an access control point, checking traffic in and out of a facility.  Specialty transaction windows  are included on booths intended for cashiers & ticket sales. And finally, we offer a full line of ballistic rated windows with our bullet & blast resistant booths. (Note: bullet resistant windows can also be included on non-ballistic rated buildings to offer increased protection.)

Can you incorporate "X" product into your guard house design?

We aim to solve our customers' space needs with excellence and great customer service. For us, that means providing the security building with the exact features you need to ensure the safety of your facility.  If there's a particular security product or feature you'd like included in your guard house design, we will always do our best to accommodate that product and incorporate it into your booth.  We have done this with a variety of different security products and systems, including but not limited to: exterior flood lights, mounted traffic lights, security cameras, roll-up security curtains, access control systems, and more.
