&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;4 Safety Features All Modern Guard Houses Should Have&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A modern security guard booth can be outfitted with any number of customized features depending on your specific needs. From complete HVAC systems on the interior of your booth to exterior detailing that perfectly matches the surrounding environment, there is almost nothing that cannot be done. But if you&rsquo;re serious about investing in security for your guard booth, there are a few safety features that you should definitely incorporate into your design.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are four of the most important safety features to include in your modern guard house.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1. Data &amp;amp; Electronic Wiring&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It may go without saying, but your security station must be fully equipped with the communication tools that your team needs to do their job. Make sure you have a hard-wired telephone line, ethernet connection, and a closed-circuit security system &ndash; one that is not vulnerable to being disabled if your internet is disconnected.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;State-of-the-art communications equipment enables your team to stay connected between multiple security booth locations or while team members are on patrol. There are even barrier and gate control capabilities. This makes it easy to call for back-up, warn one another of possible security breaches, or simply check-in at appointed times.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Similarly, data connectivity gives your security team the information they need at their fingertips, as well as the ability to store video recordings and other potentially useful information.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/park-la-brea&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;La Brea Park&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-026-park-labrea.png?itok=X07O60XI&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Restrooms&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Believe it or not, installing restrooms in your guard house can actually be a critical safety feature. With a restroom available in the booth itself, your security personnel does not need to leave the guard station unattended, or leave a single agent alone at the station, for extended periods of time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This mitigates the potential opportunities for any person or persons who may attempt to breach security. In addition, it provides your security personnel with the ease and comfort of having a restroom nearby, thus boosting team morale and improving performance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today, modern guard houses can be outfitted with single restrooms, double restrooms, and restrooms that meet ADA (American with Disabilities Act) requirements. These can be connected to your facility&rsquo;s plumbing or, if you prefer, be installed as compost or incinerator toilets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3. Bullet &amp;amp; Blast Resistant Materials&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The evolution of ballistic-rated materials has made it possible to create prefabricated security booths that are highly functional while also protecting against the most extreme threats. Using these specially engineered materials and advanced methods of construction, your security booth can be bullet and blast-resistant from the windows to the walls, floors, ceilings, and hardware.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your modern guard house can be built to protect against U.L. Level 1 up to U.L. Level 10, or NIJ-I up to NIJ-IV and 50 caliber armor-piercing ammunition. From stainless steel hinges on blast resistant doors to armor-plated steel on our fully customized steel booth, there is no detail left unchecked to the potential threat of bullets or explosive devices. In fact, B.I.G. Enterprises has obtained the industry&rsquo;s first Blast Resistant Certification for our advanced manufacturing techniques.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you oversee a power plant or an oil refinery, a sensitive laboratory, an airport, military base or government compound, a ballistics resistant security center is paramount to the safety and security for your facility and your staff.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/fortress&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Fortress&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-077-fortress.png?itok=p5nWyNyt&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;4. Slide Open Gun Ports&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the event that your security detail needs to mount a defense, slide open gun ports can be an effective way to return fire while minimizing your team&rsquo;s exposure to gunfire.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These slide-open ports are bullet-resistant when closed, but provide a large or small aperture through which a gun can be fired if necessary. The size of the port can be adjusted to accommodate different types of weapons per the needs of your team.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Trust B.I.G. Enterprises&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to the security of your staff, clients, guests, and facility, you cannot afford to trust just anyone. For over 40 years, B.I.G. Enterprises has been the industry leader in designing and manufacturing modern guard houses with the most advanced safety features, the highest quality materials, and obsessive attention to detail.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>5 Tips for Planning Your Business’ Security Booth Needs</td>
        <td>&lt;p&gt;The security of your business is no doubt one of your foremost priorities when you think the day-to-day requirements to keep running effectively. Of course, you&rsquo;ve run every scenario of what can go wrong in your head, and there&rsquo;s more that you haven&rsquo;t even considered. This might sound a little paranoid, but you really can&rsquo;t be too careful. Fortunately for you, there are effective ways to plan and bring to life a perfect security guard post design that will keep your business safe from any eventuality at all, and appear very aesthetically pleasing while doing so!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Indeed, a sense of visual appeal is much more important than you might think when it comes to generating a guard house plan. Plenty of businesses are gravitating towards a much more modern and sophisticated aesthetic, and all of the on-site facilities need to follow suit to create a uniform vision that radiates the ethos of your organization! Looks aren&rsquo;t everything either! You&rsquo;ll want to consider comfort and effectiveness as well. Check out these five tips for creating the perfect security guard post design!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/facility-controller&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Facility controller, a square, grey guard house in the road&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-047-facillity-controler.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Understand Your Need&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First and Foremost, you need to truly understand exactly what it is that you need out of your security&amp;nbsp;&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/about-us&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/about-us&quot;&gt;guard post design&lt;/a&gt;. You can hardly conceive the guard house plan of your dreams without carefully studying the specific security needs of your company. To do this, you will need to have all of your personnel and facility managers assess carefully the specific challenges of your location. Will you need a portable guard house? Is your business one that carries greater than average risk? How many security guards will the room plan need to support? These are the types of factors to consider.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Comfort is Key&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The fact of the matter is that, no matter how exemplary the design and build of a guard booth is, there is only so much that a structure can do. To ensure that your business is truly secure, you&rsquo;ll need security guards that are working hard to the very same degree as your impressive guard house. To do this, they&rsquo;ll need to be clear-headed and most importantly, not distracted by any trivial discomforts or inconveniences.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To this end, you should be sure that your security guard room plan offers occupants a comfortable atmosphere. A HVAC system is very important in making sure that your security personnel stay focused year-round, particularly in areas with extreme weather. This goes double for built-in restroom facilities, as many low-end guard houses go completely wrong in this regard. When conceiving your security guard post design, it&rsquo;s important to consider your personnel first!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/crop-protector&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;The Crop Protector, a brown guard house near a field&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-052-crop-protector.png?itok=uXECLw7O&quot; title=&quot;The Crop Protector&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Go For an Appealing Look&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Besides function, it&rsquo;s important to think about face value when it comes to your security guard post design. While every part of your facility certainly has a practical function that is important to the success and security of your day-to-day operation, it&rsquo;s still absolutely essential to ensure that it fills out as a visual addition to your facility. If you&rsquo;re like hundreds of new, cutting-edge businesses out there today, you&rsquo;re going for a cutting-edge look as well, you can choose from an extensive&amp;nbsp;&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot;&gt;catalog of designs&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to ensure that your security guard house plan and the room plan inside match your entire business idea.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Flip Side of Appearances&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While it&rsquo;s incredibly ideal to make sure that your guard house looks appealing to the friendly faces at your facility, you&rsquo;ll also want to make sure that it looks equally intimidating to those potentially threatening individuals that may be planning to vandalize, trespass, or harm your business in a premeditated fashion or otherwise. Put simply, you&rsquo;re going to want to make sure that your security guard post design gives the visual impression of the deterrent that it no doubt is.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Consider All Specifications&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You might be tempted to simply think that ordering a security booth will be enough, and in some cases, it might. However, you will find that with a more hands-on approach to your security guard post design, you&rsquo;ll be more pleased with the result. Many custom builders offer their own default&amp;nbsp;&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;specifications&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for you to consider, be the frame standard or ballistic. Furthermore, there are many state requirements to consider to ensure that your security guard room or house plan is compliant with regulations and standards. Be sure to consider every detail of your plan for the best results!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Active Assailant Unarmed Officer&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security is a top concern for every business that interacts with the public daily. Some visitors may be uncomfortable with an armed guard. If that rings true for the members of the public you serve, an unarmed officer can be effective.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Observation:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Security forces, whether armed or not, should make use of observation skills, particularly before warning signs of an attack even present themselves. Guards who quietly observe patrons exhibiting pre-attack indicators can find engagement a useful tool. The guard might ask about their day and then observe their reaction to and the detail of verbal response and body language to determine if their behavior is innocent or a warning sign.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Communication:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Effective communication is invaluable in the wake of a violent act. Guards should be armed with communication tools like multi-channel radios. They should also coordinate non-verbal signals to use to avoid arousing suspicion of a would-be attacker.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Location and Amenities:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Security forces can be most effective when stationed near a business entryway. Security personnel stationed in or near an attendant booth can greet guests and begin their observation of all patrons in order to better evaluate a situation. A custom booth can be ordered to meet the particular needs of a business, including designs that match your external aesthetic, along with the inclusion of restrooms to avoid the need for attendants and guards to stray too far from such an important post.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;A Home Base:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A security guard cabin at an entrance can also serve as a &ldquo;home base&rdquo; of sorts for security personnel, and it won&rsquo;t take up additional space within your building. Plus, guards will have everything they need to make the booth the first line of defense for suspicious activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Training:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the case of an active assailant attacking on business grounds, unarmed guards can be effective with the proper training. Visibility of perceived force is a good start, but additional training can help them identify the differences between high-risk and low-risk guests. Low-risk individuals, for example, might include children, families, people over 70, and known guests of the establishment. However, it cannot be emphasized enough that training for this type of observation is crucial to avoid stereotyping anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
While there are no guarantees on the most effective strategy to stay safe, peace of mind can come with preparedness.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Secondly, guards can observe all people coming and going, looking for &ldquo;PAINs&rdquo; (Pre-Attack Indicators). PAINs might include movement patterns, objects being carried, dress, demeanor, and even facial expressions. By observing all of the attendees&mdash;both those exhibiting PAINs and those who aren&rsquo;t&mdash;guards can quickly spring into action if an attack begins.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
As stated above, the best position for this defensive role would seem to be stationing a guard near the entrance. This is typically done through installation of a security guard booth. This way, security guards have a protected &ldquo;home base&rdquo; of operations and are among the first to greet guests and begin their observations of everyone&rsquo;s behavior. Prefabricated guard houses are a great option to consider. These can be pre-built to detailed specifications, ranging from size to security measures like a bullet-resistant exterior (100% bullet-proof booths are rare). Security guards inside can feel protected and more easily able to observe and detect warning signs of danger.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Wherever they are positioned, it is important for guards to keep in mind that PAINs can have an innocent explanation. This is where it becomes essential to include customer service training for these type of security jobs; for example, asking how a guest&rsquo;s day is going and where they are headed are forms of engagement that can help security personnel evaluate a person&rsquo;s actions and motives, depending on the response they receive. Of course, this must be done in a way that alleviates suspicion either way so both a potential attacker and an innocent attendee don&rsquo;t feel threatened or alarmed.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Guards housed in a secure booth at the entrance to buildings and events can be the perfect partnership with measures already in place for increased safety in today&rsquo;s world.&lt;br /&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Applications of a Portable Guard House for Industrial&amp;nbsp;Operations&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In response to market demand for more robust guard shacks, guard booth manufacturers have developed advanced designs and features. Regardless if a temporary guard house or a permanent component of the facility campus, it is imperative to choose the appropriate guard house design layout. In addition to providing personnel with a more secure and efficient work environment, the right portable guard house&amp;nbsp;will enhance overall security.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to industrial operations, the right guard house design layout helps amp up the security within a company. Following are some examples of how a guard shack can be leveraged in industrial business.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Product Delivery&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&ndash; A truck coming onto the property of a warehouse, manufacturing plant, or factory may be innocent. However, without stopping the vehicle to verify the driver&rsquo;s information and the product, there is no way to be sure. By placing a permanent or temporary guard house at the entry point for product delivery, your trained personnel can gather the necessary information and conduct a visual inspection of the truck&rsquo;s contents.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sensitive Documentation&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&ndash; With a guard shack in place, the guard or attendant can verify approval of any hard-copy documentation coming out of the company. If the business deals with sensitive hard-copy documents, guard shack inspectors can keep something from leaving in the wrong hands. Because a guard shack serves as a check-in and checkout point, your personnel can stop the theft of such hard-copy documents.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bulk Material Handling&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&ndash; To ensure overall safety, a guard shack is often used to monitor and control bulk material handling. For example, to prevent overloaded trucks from leaving the property, the guard or attendant can review weigh bills. Ultimately, this prevents drivers from stealing material. While not a physical danger, stealing bulk materials can have a devastating financial effect on a company.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Visitors&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&ndash; For both foot and vehicle traffic, placing a guard house away from the&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
building gives the trained personnel adequate time to take the appropriate action if a threat arises. Not only does a guard shack help in monitoring traffic, it also controls the comings and goings of people and vehicles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although many industries use&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;control booths,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;they have become a common fixture for industrial businesses. Specific to industrial operations, these booths are used for a variety of applications with the overall goal of protecting workers, the property, equipment, and goods inside.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Common Industrial Applications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Guard House&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Often, control booths are used as a type of guard house. With an increasing need for security, these booths are outfitted with the necessary equipment for this very purpose. When placed outside away from the main building, the booth attendant can monitor and control comings and goings. If required, a camera, floodlights, and other safety features can be added.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Information&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; This type of booth also serves as a point of information. For instance, people visiting a manufacturing company, plant, mine, mill, railyard, dredge, or warehouse can stop by the booth to get information and directions. This allows your attendant to guide traffic where it is supposed to go. By choosing a booth with 360-degree visibility, visitors can easily identify the booth. However, this also gives the attendant a better view of people and the property.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Controls&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; In some situations, a control booth can be used for operating various controls. In addition to monitoring and controlling critical areas on the exterior of your company, when properly equipped, the booth attendant can open and close gates and more.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bulk Material Handling&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; For monitoring transfer operations and performing office duties associated with the drilling, extraction, and transportation of gas and oil, many companies rely on booths.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Operator Shelter&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Booths can be placed in truck loading, material-handling, warehouse loading, and rail car loading areas where they serve as shelters that provide employees protection, as well as shelter.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Environmental Shelter&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; If&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;control booths&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;are placed outside of hazardous locations, they can be equipped with break-resistant windows, sound-deadening walls and ceilings, and a blast-resistant construction.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shelter&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; For some industrial applications,&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;control booths&lt;/u&gt;&amp;nbsp;provide workers in remote locations with shelter. For instance, your workers have a place to get out of the heat or cold when on the job.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since the rise of terrorist groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda, public spaces have become dangerously vulnerable to the threat of terrorist attacks, particularly because these groups instruct their members specifically on how to target public areas that everyday citizens frequent on a daily basis. According to law enforcement, between 2016-2017 a whopping 724 people were killed by vehicular terrorist attacks alone.&amp;nbsp;The scary part is that those numbers don&rsquo;t even begin to account for the amount of people injured in these kind of events, nor for those killed or injured in crowd incidents involving negligent driving. The reality is that most of these deaths and injuries could have easily been prevented or minimized through the use of on-site portable guard booths. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The unique threat that large vehicle attacks present to city planners who are responsible not only for building urban areas to be less vulnerable to crime, but for ensuring that there are enough guard shack enclosures present to monitor public spaces. Those types of spaces, like public squares or busy pedestrian walkways that regularly attract large crowds, are particularly vulnerable to intentional vehicular attack. An extra portable guard booth should always be on hand to ensure that adequate security is accounted for in situations where unusually large crowds might be prone to periodically gather in one space, like in the context of a concert, open market, or even a protest, to name just a few examples. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, guard shack enclosures will also provide additional security in the event of accidental vehicular negligence, which has become increasingly prevalent with widespread cell phone usage. Portable guard shacks help ensure that city planners are in a position where they are adaptable to meet the needs of crowd safety in any event. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The visible presence of a portable guard booth in any public area means that pedestrians can report erratic driving or any other type of suspicious activity directly to the security officer on duty, who is then in a position to safely neutralize the situation before it occurs. If the safety threat occurs in a crowded environment, if onlookers are forced to wait for emergency personnel to arrive on the scene, there is a high likelihood that it will already be too late by the time they arrive. This is why it is so important for city planners to take a proactive approach in providing enough guard shack enclosures to keep a crowd safe and secure in any occasion. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Booth Enterprises provides the highest quality state-of-the-art guard shacks and portable guard shacks designed specifically to meet the needs of urban planners in addressing crowd and pedestrian security.

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:start; -webkit-text-stroke-width:0px; margin:20pt 0in 6pt&quot;&gt;A well-known financial services organization that helps clients prepare for the future, has taken an innovative approach to preparing the company to address security threats as well. When they constructed an innovative 32-story tower as their new operations headquarters, the company took the initiative to update their security strategy. The impressive new structure features a top-of-the-line security technology strategy that is operated, monitored and controlled by multiple access points including within a custom booth. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By revolutionizing their corporate security strategy, the financial services organization has placed themselves ahead of the game. Given the massive size of the structure, the state-of-the-art facility is using the custom guard booth as an innovative way to make sure that not only their assets, but also their valuable employees and clients are kept safe and secure at all times of the day and night. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the forefront of this technological approach to security, a mobile guard shack provides an innovative means to protect the premises in its entirety. This means that a custom booth can provide a manner to account for security fully in corporate premises, including locations that corporate campus &amp;nbsp;administrators often overlook, like gardens and on-site cafeterias and restaurants. The truth is that many corporate premises fail to account for the need to install a custom booth in these types of corporate-owned spaces, and they tend to be particularly vulnerable to crimes. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is because eating and lounging areas tend to be publicly accessible, although still corporately owned. This means that without the presence of a mobile guard shack, these areas are especially prone to crime as they are open to everybody and anybody, not just corporate employees. Installing a custom booth in the entrance and exit areas of these kind of environments, as well as throughout the headquarters, is imperative to ensuring adequate corporate security. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A corporate security consultant for the firm, points out the strategic value of implementing a state-of-the-art security strategy in not only attracting a workforce, but for using a combined strategy featuring the custom booth and mobile guard booth as a way to ensure that security needs will be adaptable and prepared to meet any new challenges that might arise in the future. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the hallmarks of the company&rsquo;s strategy is to ensure that their multiple corporate campuses are working together and equally committed to meeting a high security standard. It is not uncommon for transitional zones between campuses to lack a custom guard booth designed to account for the unique challenges that these zones present, and therefore, are often left vulnerable to crime. A mobile guard booth provides an adaptive solution to meet these kind of challenges and to ensure that physical spaces that connect these campuses, like skywalks, are kept safe and secure at all times. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Benefits of Having Security Booths serving Hospitals&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Because of their openness, hospitals can be vulnerable places. This is why in recent years, the majority of US hospitals have been working hard to improve security by installing a guard booth where an armed officer can be stationed at all entrances and widely used thoroughfares. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are myriad ways that a hospital is made safe and secure by installing security booths. Security booths allow for a station to monitor people entering and leaving the hospital. Hospitals are particularly vulnerable to criminal activity because they are public facilities. This means that there is always a risk that armed felons or people with dangerous records and unstable histories can enter undetected. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Furthermore, hospitals host many people who have already been victims of an assault, and there is a big risk of the perpetrators of these assaults entering the hospital with the intention to committing further crimes. This is particularly an issue in common cases involving domestic violence towards female victims, who will be especially vulnerable to an attack should a perpetrator be able to enter a facility where there are no security booths already in place. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of this, having at least one guard booth in all busy public areas, as well as at least one other portable security booth to address any contextual security concerns that may arise, is one of the most important aspects of a successful hospital security initiative. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A midwestern state has recently taken the initiative to station 120 security officers and trained police who work from either a guard booth or a portable security booth. Here, the Chief of Police and corporate director of safety for the Health District, have a personal mission to provide optimal safety in hospital environments where patients are particularly vulnerable to attack. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the Director of Safety, it isn&rsquo;t just about keeping armed and dangerous people out of the hospitals, but about being able to station more police and trained guards in the hospital. This is why it is so important for hospitals to have multiple security booths on and around the premises to house these officers. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A portable security booth will be especially helpful in monitoring zones where suspicious activity may periodically arise. The security director points out that when nurses and patients have easy access to multiple security booths, they are able to quickly report any suspicious activity, and this will allow for the situation to be acted on and neutralized immediately, rather than wasting precious minutes waiting for somebody to arrive on the scene. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B.I.G. Booth Enterprises has security booths that can be specially customized to best serve hospitals and feature the widest selection available to accommodate the special needs of caretaking environments. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Best Features to Include in Your Custom Guard Shack Design&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A custom guard shack is the best way to ensure safety and security for your property, business, or facility -&amp;nbsp; architecturally and functionally. A proper station ensures that your security personnel has the tools, the protection, and &ndash;&amp;nbsp;yes &ndash; the comfort they need to stay at the top of their game.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we design and manufacture guard shacks and security booths to meet the specific needs of our clients. The right security station must be custom built in order to ensure that it is the right size and blends in with the style of your location. But it is the features you choose to include that can make all the difference in how effective your security team ultimately performs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are some of the best features to include in your custom guard shack design.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Restroom Facilities&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you need around the clock security at your location, or if there is some distance between the desired placement of your guard shack and a main facility, you&rsquo;ll want to include a restroom in your guard shack.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are various options for restrooms, including self-contained systems and commercial wall mount systems. You can choose to install a double unit for male and female employees, as well as units that meet handicap requirements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Bullet Resistant Upgrades&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your security booth faces potential &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;high-level ballistic threats&lt;/a&gt;, it is imperative that you provide your personnel with the proper protection. From bullet-resistant glass and reinforced plated walls and flooring to gun ports, transaction drawers and trays, your custom guard shack design should take into consideration all possible threats. Additional safety to protect against weapons use includes intercoms, gun ports and hardened floors, roofing, air conditioning units, cameras, and data &amp;amp; communication ports.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/convincer&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Silver Bullet and Blast Resistant Guard Booth&quot; height=&quot;323&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/may-2011.jpg&quot; width=&quot;462&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your booth is in a high-risk environment, such as a nuclear facility, you&rsquo;ll want to invest in a Bullet &amp;amp; Blast Resistant structure, known as a BBRE. These guard shack designs include resistance to explosive devices, defensive features such as slide-open gun ports, and exterior blinding lights.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;HVAC Systems&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An HVAC system ensures that your security staff can operate year-round, regardless of the weather conditions. Not all HVAC systems are alike; a variety of options are available depending on your needs and your general climate. Wall-mounted combination cooling and heating units, ductless as well as ducted split systems, high output heaters, and baseboard heaters are all available for colder climates, while exhaust vents, ceiling vents, and installed AC units are available for warmer environments. For all-weather locations, combination systems and advanced thermostat controls can provide the ultimate in comfort for security professionals.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;HVAC systems are not only about comfort; maintaining consistent temperatures and controlling the humidity in your guard booth can prevent mold and mildew build-up, preserve the interior materials, and reduce your long-term maintenance costs. Our systems also meet every US State energy code requirement.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Custom Finishes&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you&rsquo;re finalizing your custom guard shack design, it is important to make sure that the design works within the existing aesthetic style of the location. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s important to have a wide range of custom finishes at your disposal. This could include stucco, brick, cultured stone, stainless steel, or wood trim exterior materials, as well as custom drawers, shelves, cabinetry, and flooring.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You also want to ensure that your guard shack is outfitted with any practical features needed given the location. For example, if you need your booth to be portable, you may want to include fork-lift pockets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For colleges, universities, and high schools, the safety of students, faculty, and guests is paramount. The unfortunate reality of escalating violent crime on college campuses, including campus shootings, demands an effective and affordable response.

&lt;p&gt;For the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/new-prefab-guard-booth-gatehouse-mirrors-surroundings&quot;&gt;New Beginnings Gatehouse&lt;/a&gt; in Washington, DC, our team worked with Bell Architects to construct a high-security entrance booth for the State of Maryland youth detention center that &ldquo;reflected&rdquo; more of the natural environment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The youth detention center required a security booth that presented a more positive image for friends and family visiting young people at the center. At the same time, the booth needed to be extremely secure. This unique challenge necessitated a unique solution for their high-security entrance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To achieve this, our team utilized tinted and laminated dual-pane insulating glass exterior panels that reflect the surrounding area. Behind this opaque glass is a structural steel framing with R-17 insulated galvanized steel walls. This design reduced the appearance of a &lsquo;high-security&rsquo; facility; rather, the unit blended into the natural surroundings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While your situation may not require mirrored exterior walls to help the booth disappear into its environment, it&rsquo;s a great example of our ability to truly customize the project based on your needs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The youth detention center required a security booth that presented a more positive image for friends and family visiting young people at the center. At the same time, the booth needed to be extremely secure. This unique challenge necessitated a unique solution for their high-security entrance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To achieve this, our team utilized tinted and laminated dual-pane insulating glass exterior panels that reflect the surrounding area. Behind this opaque glass is a structural steel framing with R-17 insulated galvanized steel walls. This design reduced the appearance of a &lsquo;high-security&rsquo; facility; rather, the unit blended into the natural surroundings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While your situation may not require mirrored exterior walls to help the booth disappear into its environment, it&rsquo;s a great example of our ability to truly customize the project based on your needs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;A modern guard house with steel window accents.&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-037-panorama-towers.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you work with B.I.G., you can rest assured that we comply with local and state-level building and manufacturing regulations. We understand that each state has unique requirements for energy codes, construction approval, permits, and inspections. B.I.G. offers numerous innovative guardhouse &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;design options&lt;/a&gt; that enhance both security and comfort.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Frame&lt;/b&gt; &ndash; The guardhouse&rsquo;s frame has to be at least 2&quot; x 2&quot; x .083&quot; structural, mechanical steel tubing formed for accuracy. Besides being aesthetically pleasing, B.I.G. prefab offices and guard shack enclosures offer a superior structure capable of handling a 220 mile per hour wind load.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wall System&lt;/b&gt; &ndash; The wall system is minimum, 16 gauge, cold-rolled galvanized steel interior and exterior panels MIG welding between the frame and mullions. Units have minimum R-10 exterior continuous insulation encapsulated within the final external layer of 16ga. galvanized steel wall panels. Because of this, the level of comfort, durability, and strength is outstanding.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Roofing System&lt;/b&gt; &ndash; Regardless of the guardhouse design you select, all structures manufactured by B.I.G. feature an internal steel-framed roof with a 16ga. galvanized steel roof deck welded to the framing. The roof deck is coated with a three-part roofing membrane with a solar reflective index of 95 or greater. Drainage occurs through a guttering system comprised of downspouts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Flooring System&lt;/b&gt; &ndash; Standard booth flooring is 12gha. galvanized steel floor deck welded to galvanized steel tubular perimeter frame with joists. The floor deck is covered with 20&quot; x 20&quot; polyvinyl chloride interlocking tiles with a 4&quot; base cove. The interior side of the frame includes welded steel anchor plates that have pre-drilled holes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Door&lt;/b&gt; &ndash; Our guardhouse design layout offers the choice of either sliding or swinging door(s). Slide doors are constructed of steel tube frames and 16 gauge insulated galvanized steel panels. Doors are top hung from a welded, fixed-place steel track and eight 2 1/4&quot; rigid steel ball bearing rollers with a lower stainless-steel guide, stainless steel pull handles welded to the frame, and mortise lock.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Campuses Attract Many Types of Crime&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today&rsquo;s campuses are a mix of the young and the old, the new and the established, and the very modern and very traditional. The buildings covered in thick ivy-leafed and the gentle sloping and meandering walkways tend to make up our imagery of campuses in popular culture and university brochures. But as the world has expanded so has the microcosm that campuses used to be.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Campuses are hubs of activity that draw in many groups into a very dynamic atmosphere. It is no longer as easy to identify who is a student, who is a parent, who is a visiting academic and who just simply should not be there.&amp;nbsp;Students may not notice if they walk by a guard house daily on the way to classes and library study sessions. Campus security is often not high on their list of items to focus on, but it is in fact a well-oiled security system. The intent is always to provide protection without sparking fear, and it is both the systemic and daily decisions that create this balance. Using only the equipment that is anticipated to be needed in a situation, choosing low-profile prefabricated guard booths, and installing systems that allow guards to monitor comings and goings without raising alarm, are all ways to create this safe campus atmosphere.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Campuses are a hotbed for many types of crime, each one requiring a slightly different approach in its prevention. The planning and design of campuses can help combat certain types crime, such as assault. Simple things such as clearly marking pathways and providing well-lit prefab shelters at any transit stop can help students stay visible and protected.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Other potential security measures can be slightly more controversial than simply installing a guard house. Many people believe there should be more camera surveillance on campus and that security personnel should be wearing body cams, while others see these options as a slippery slope and a way to encroach on the privacy of civilians. They question what would be done with all of the data, and could it be sold to companies with a vested interest? On the other hand, could it be that these measures offer the safety they promise?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The dynamism, history, and openness of universities are all keys to fostering the environment of ideas and ingenuity they hold at their core. It would serve no one to turn campuses into closed and suspicious locations. It is therefore very important that security services continue to innovate themselves, while protecting students and faculty from those who wish to prey on their wellbeing on campus.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Choosing the Right Prefabricated Guard Shacks: What to Consider&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/kensington&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;prefabricated-guard-shack&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/prefabricated-guard-shack.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From private businesses to government agencies, military bases to airports, or schools, a prefabricated guard shack is not only an investment in security, but in the long term health of the organization as a whole.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But how do you go about choosing the right unit for your unique needs? Our guard shacks are completely customizable, with virtually endless options for design, aesthetics, and features, so we understand it can be a challenge to determine what you need and what you don&rsquo;t.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;ve put together this list of questions to consider when you&rsquo;re setting out to design your prefabricated security guard shack.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1. What is the purpose of your guard shack?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First, consider what the primary function of your guard shack will be. Every security team has different needs, and that can inform the purpose it plays in protecting property.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Will the primary purpose be for surveillance? If you require a surveillance hub, then you&rsquo;ll need added ports in your security booth for the internet so you can set up data and phone lines in the unit. Adding LED lights will make your prefabricated guard shack a noticeable point at nighttime for easy accessibility. And if you want your guards to be able to observe bypassers while remaining inconspicuous inside the booth, its best to consider red dimmable task lighting and lightly tinted glass.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;paramount-pictures-security-booth&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/paramount-pictures-security-booth.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 1012px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your security guard shack is being used to control vehicle traffic &ndash; such as the entrance to a parking lot, studio, government facility, or business &ndash; this will influence your design. You will need to include a window at a specific height for security personnel to communicate directly with vehicles. In many cases, you&rsquo;ll want a traffic arm that raises up and down and/or fencing with rolling gates. Higher level security areas also require wedge barriers. The guard booths should be designed to house the control mechanism for the system selected. If your booth is going to be operational after dark, proper lighting can increase visibility for drivers and security team members.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your prefabricated security guard shack is primarily used for surveillance and data collection, enhanced security equipment and features may be necessary. Pre-wiring the unit for data and communication is critical to provide your security team with phone and internet, while security cameras mounted on the exterior of the booth can identify visitors and keep records of everyone who comes and goes. Tinted windows, LED lighting, and slide-open gun ports can further protect your security team.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;2. How and where will your guard shack be installed?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Consider whether your prefabricated guard shack is going to be &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/building-specs&quot;&gt;installed permanently or temporarily&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your guard shack will be installed at the entrance to a facility permanently, you may want to consider the surroundings and make sure your shack matches the aesthetics of its environment. For example, if your security booth is being installed on a college campus, it is important that it blends in with the architecture of the buildings and landscape around it; this creates a more welcoming environment while also projecting a sense of safety for students and faculty.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Consider the physical space your shack will occupy: Which sides of the booth are facing the sun? Where will your security team members need to have more visibility? If you&rsquo;re including restrooms, is there accessible plumbing in this location? Do you need additional security barriers around the booth, such as concrete bollards? And what guard booth sizes make the most sense?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If mobility is important to you, consider a portable guard shack that can easily be relocated from job to job. Construction sites, temporary military installations, and seasonal events are all situations for which you may need the ability to move your guard booth with some frequency. Our prefabricated guard shacks can be designed with slots for forklifts or mounted on DOT highway approved trailers. Booths can also have compost or incinerator toilets that do not require plumbing, and pre-wiring that is easily plugged in and unplugged as needed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Generally, consider the climate of your location and design your guard shack accordingly. HVAC units, heating and cooling systems, and proper ventilation are not just luxuries; these features help ensure that security personnel can think and perform at their best. Make sure you have enough space in your unit to store cold weather apparel, emergency blankets, and first aid kits.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;3. What types of threats will your security team face?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;nuclear-power-plant&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/nuclear-power-plant-4535760_1280.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For many locations, the most common threats that security will have to handle are theft, robbery, and vandalism. While this requires that security teams receive proper training, possess necessary equipment, and have a secure location from which to operate, your guard shack may only require standard building materials to provide adequate protection.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For more high-risk situations, such as military bases, sensitive government facilities, airports, and power plants, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/options&quot;&gt;blast and bullet resistant materials&lt;/a&gt; may be required. From walls and windows to floors and ceilings, these materials can protect your security team from the threat of firearms, explosive devices, and other serious attacks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your prefabricated guard shack can be built using bullet resistant materials which rate from Level 1 to Level NIJ-IV and 50 caliber armor piercing. In fact, B.I.G. has obtained the industry&rsquo;s first Blast Resistant Certification on manufacturing technique.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, you may consider including slide-open gun ports, bullet resistant shroud for data and communications lines, LED blinder spotlights, and storage for weapons and ammunition in your design.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;4. Do you require additional accommodations?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The best part of a custom prefabricated guard shack is the ability to include just about any &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;addition design features&lt;/a&gt; you can think of. If your security team is comfortable, they will be able to perform better during long shifts &ndash; which can last up to twelve hours or more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The proper HVAC system will provide year-round comfort, and padded flooring makes it easier for team members to stay on their feet. Custom finishes can range from practical to polished, while restroom facilities can ensure that the station remains occupied around the clock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Choose B.I.G Enterprises&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to who to choose for your prefabricated guard shack, there is only one choice. Since 1963, B.I.G. Enterprises has been manufacturing custom guard booths for every application and industry, using state-of-the-art building techniques and the highest quality materials.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Considerations for Purchasing the Right Guard Booth&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After deciding that your facility could benefit from a guard booth, it is time to determine which type of booth would best serve your needs. From style to size to optional features, you will discover that you have many important decisions to make. With so many options available, ordering a new booth can feel somewhat overwhelming. To make the process easier while ensuring you choose the exact security booth you need, helpful information is provided below.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Size&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The first factor to consider when choosing the right guard booth is size. Whether your needs require a booth large enough to accommodate multiple guards plus surveillance equipment or you only need enough space for a single guard, B.I.G. Enterprises booths can be pre-manufactured in a wide range of sizes. In considering which size of security booth best meets your facility needs, think about the location where the booth will be positioned, as well as any relevant constraints.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, the intended use of the booth should be considered. In some cases, ordering multiple booths may prove to be the best solution to meet size requirements. If you are unsure as to the appropriate booth size, the best option is to send us a message with the content requirements. That way, the appropriate size of security booth for your facility can be ascertained.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Style&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You should also give some thought to architectural style. Because guard booths are available in many different styles, you can choose something that will complement your existing facility. You can also select from optional features, including roof style, molding, and a host of colors. With so many available choices, selecting a booth that will blend seamlessly with the surrounding environment is easy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Optional and Additional Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once the basics of your booth are determined, the next step is to plan which additional features you might want incorporated in the design. To start with, you want to consider how the booth will be used. For instance, if employees will spend long periods in the booth, you may want to include a restroom or HVAC system to maintain optimal convenience and comfort.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
To enhance storage capabilities, shelving can be added to your guard booth. If there is a greater degree of risk at your facility, the security booth can be designed with tinted windows or even a bullet-resistant exterior. To improve the overall safety in the immediate surroundings, you also have the option of having floodlights installed.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Contact Us with Any Questions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
At B.I.G. Enterprises, we are available to assist with any questions that you might have. Our prefabricated booths are available in many sizes and with a host of additional features.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;Bullet-resistant materials, such as bulletproof walls and doors, are tested, reviewed, and rated by certifying agencies to verify that the wall or door can successfully stop penetration from a certain number of shots from a specific caliber firearm. To give an example, a bulletproof panel that has been rated Level 4 will be able to stop penetration from a bullet from a standard .30-06 rifle typically used for hunting. In contrast, a bulletproof panel rated Level 7 would successfully prevent penetration of up to five bullets from a tactical rifle such as an AR-15. While ratings for bulletproof materials range from U.L. Level 1 through 10, most security operations guard shacks at banks, convenience stores, and medical or legal facilities can be sufficiently addressed by using bulletproof materials in the Levels 1 to 3 range. However, for locations with a &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/importance-guard-houses-areas-high-risk-conflict&quot; style=&quot;color:blue; text-decoration:underline&quot;&gt;higher threat-risk&lt;/a&gt;, such as military bases, maximum-security prisons, or power plants, constructing a secure visitor check-in area may require materials in the Levels 4 through 8 range depending on the facility&rsquo;s need. We can offer booths that meet U.L. ratings 1-10 or all NIJ threat levels. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;The Commonwealth Guard Booth from BIG Enterprises&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/water-protector-guard-booth.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;B.I.G. Enterprises can help you design everything form a bullet-resistant guard shack to a more modest ticket booth, and we&rsquo;ll help you to determine the answers to the following three questions:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;What level of protection do you believe is needed based on current and future threats?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;How large of an area do you need to secure?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;What functionality will the employees stationed with the security operations guard shacks need?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/control-center&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;The Control Center Guard Booth from BIG Enterprises&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/control-center-guard-booth.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Combining Bulletproof Materials with System Functionality&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;If your business is exploring adding bullet-resistant guard facilities to your pre-existing loss prevention and risk analysis security plans and protocols, you know that it&rsquo;s crucial to balance the costs associated with additional layers of security against the risks of an armed robbery or unlawful intrusion into your facility. However, you must also factor in the needs and work functionalities of the guard staff who will be stationed in the structure. Chances are, they will need access to communications and computer systems. In specific environments, such as an entertainment venue, large transit hubs, or banks, staff may need access to cash draws and credit card readers. It won&rsquo;t help your business if your employees stationed inside the guard shack can&rsquo;t adequately perform their jobs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:11pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:115%&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial,sans-serif&quot;&gt;Fortunately, when you choose B.I.G. Enterprises to design and construct your high-security guard booths, we can help you to ensure that all business and employee needs are met, in addition to creating a structure that meets or exceeds the level of protection your business requires.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Evolution of Security: How Manned Security Booths Changed in the 21st Century&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Life in the first half of the 21st century is dramatically different than it was even during the end of the 20th century, and much of that has to do with our relationships with technology, tools, and a sense of security. Manned security has become increasingly important and is a necessity in many industries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After September 11th, 2001, our collective idea of safety and security fundamentally changed forever. Since then, the way we think about security &ndash;&ndash; for our homes, businesses, and public spaces &ndash;&ndash; has had to adapt to the new reality of a post-9/11 world. While this new reality created some fear surrounding those previously unknown threats, the technology and tools we use to protect ourselves began to evolve rapidly as the security industry quickly caught up to meet these needs. That included improvements made to security stations and guard booths.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Below we&rsquo;ll explore a few ways that manned security booths have changed in the 21st Century.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/options&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Security booth features&quot; height=&quot;220&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/security-booths-options-high-security.png&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; width=&quot;283&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Improved Technology&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From the proliferation of the internet to a smartphone in every pocket, technology has evolved rapidly in the first two decades of the 21st century. Some of that technology has been an enormous benefit to our public and personal security. Today, security guard booths can be &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/options&quot;&gt;outfitted with advanced technology&lt;/a&gt; that helps improve the safety of businesses, parking lots, college campuses, private residences, airports &ndash;&ndash;&amp;nbsp;even nuclear facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security booths can be fully wired and equipped with high-speed internet as well as hard-wired communication lines which can help protect against hacks or other outside interference. High definition digital security cameras can record persons with greater clarity to aid in identification, while more streamlined and efficient HVAC systems make it possible to provide heating and cooling in smaller units.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Bullet and Blast Resistance&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a post-9/11 world, the unfortunate reality is that the most extreme threats can often involve high-powered weapons, including guns and explosive devices. That means that manned security booths must be &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;designed to be bullet and blast-resistant&lt;/a&gt;, especially when those security booths are being used for high-threat applications and locations, such as airports and government facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bullet resistant glass paneling and diamond steel-reinforced flooring and walls can help protect your security personnel from the threat of gunfire and explosive blasts. The installation of concrete pillars around your security guard booth can help protect against vehicles being used to ram the structure. Slide-open gun ports can give your security team the opportunity to mount a counteroffensive without leaving the safety of the guard booth, and high-powered external lighting can blind attackers to give your team the upper hand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Blending in with the Environment&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/new-prefab-guard-booth-gatehouse-mirrors-surroundings&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Mirrored security guard booth&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/laurel-maryland-1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 600px; height: 450px; float: right; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 10px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The need for increased security should not necessarily mean that the increased security presence is always so obvious. In some cases, this can contribute to collective anxiety; if all residents, visitors, employees, or clients see are high-powered security stations and armed guards on patrol, this can actually have the opposite effect from presenting a sense of safety. That&rsquo;s why, in some cases, it is critical to ensure your manned security booth blends into its surroundings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Fortunately, as guard booth design has improved, construction techniques have gotten smarter, and the variety of materials available has expanded, it has become easier to match security stations with their environments. From installing exterior brick onsite to ensure it perfectly matches a college campus to outfitting a guard booth with mirrored glass to reflect the surrounding foliage, there&rsquo;s no shortage of ways to camouflage your security structure. This is a great way to ensure you have the protection you need without contributing to a larger sense of fear or anxiety, especially in those locations where a sense of omnipresent security is unwanted.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Future of Security&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we have been designing and building the highest quality manned security booths for decades &ndash;&ndash; and since our founding, we have led the evolution of security into the 21st century. We set the bar for the best-prefabricated security guard booths, customized to meet any need, circumstance, or environment, and that includes offering state of the art features to rise to the challenges we face in a post-9/11 world.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you need the latest technology and communication systems, a bullet and blast-resistant design, or a security station that subtly sits in its surroundings, our experienced team can make it happen.

&lt;p&gt;Security guard booths are designed with advanced framing and paneling. All types of booths can be designed, configured, and manufactured easily and in a short period of time. These portable guard booths are prefabricated at our factory and then shipped directly to your location.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As part of buying security guard booths from B.I.G., there is an amazing list of special features and amenities from which to choose, such as:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Exterior Color (both standard and customized)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Flooring&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;HVAC systems&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Cabinets, countertops, and drawers&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Windows and doors&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Restrooms&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Lighting&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Communications&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;High-security to include ballistic and blast resistance&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Two Primary Purposes&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our guard booths serve two primary purposes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Security &ndash; These booths serve as the first line of defense. To keep a community, business, or government site completely safe, these &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;security stations&lt;/a&gt; provide a needed deterrent to intrusion, theft, and vandalism. However, because guard booths are designed with windows on all sides for a 360-degree view, they also provide outstanding observation.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Comfort &ndash; In many situations, guard booths are manned by one or more people for hours, if not days, at a time. Because of this, the units need to provide a level of comfort that not only makes the job easier but also helps keep security personnel alert while on the job. Comfort amenities include things like well insulated walls and rooms, insulating glass, HVAC system, restroom, cabinetry, and more.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Guard Buildings for the Security of the Schoolyard&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Police stationed in guard buildings have played a key role in threat reduction and creating a safe and secure environment in a School District that spans over a range of 200 miles in the eastern U.S. On multiple occasions, the children were able to approach and inform School District sworn police officers about potential threats by contacting guards stationed in on-site guard houses. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guard buildings are also expected to play a key role in providing police guards with the ability to analyze video evidence. Because guards can&rsquo;t be everywhere, video monitoring technology has been invaluable in combating crime on school campuses. These types of initiatives are expected to become more standard in the near future. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The School District keeps all videos for many days, and in the future, it hopes to allow police to use the guard houses as headquarters to look over video evidence after receiving a report of an incident. This initiative is expected to further increase campus safety by allowing police to address a report right away rather than wait for city police to review the tapes. As technology improves, there will definitely be a need to keep more guard buildings on school campuses in order to accommodate improved security measures. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another way that guards have been able to stay on top of schoolyard crime is through the use of portable guard buildings, which are guard buildings that can be easily moved from location to location. Portable guard buildings are indispensable in allowing police and guards to adopt a new perspective and viewpoint at will, not to mention increase the element of surprise for anybody planning to commit criminal activity in the vicinity of school grounds. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Essentially, when it comes to school safety, portable guard houses have been one of the first lines of defense, allowing an officer to adopt an ideal lookout in order to monitor a developing situation or a potential threat. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another hopeful future initiative will be to provide live license plate technology, allowing police to review video evidence on their phones while stationed in the guard houses. This call to action will improve campus security by allowing police to better identify suspicious activity and keep our schools even safer. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main point to take home is that schoolyard security is too important to neglect, and the presence of numerous guard buildings is essential to ensuring a schoolyard is kept safe. B.I.G. Booth Enterprises offers the best range of guard houses and portable guard buildings on the market at the best prices. They always have a range of options available to accommodate the unique needs of schoolyard security. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tips for Selecting the Right Guard Houses&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you are thinking about having a guard house installed at your facility, you always want the best. Because there are so many companies that now offer this type of product, the selection process can quickly become overwhelming. However, by following a few suggestions, you will end up with an exceptional product that offers superior functionality, as well as comfort.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Company Matters&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Although it might be tempting to build a security station as a do-it-yourself project or go with a lesser-known company that offers incredible claims for manufacturing top-of-the-line guard houses, the reality is that you want to work with a company that has a long history in the business. A perfect example is B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. which has studied different types of threats and designs of guard houses for more than 50 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Security versus Monitoring&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As you look at different guard houses, you will discover that some are used more for monitoring purposes while others serve as a first line of defense against imposing threats. For example, booths are often used for collecting money on toll turnpikes. In this case, the focus is more on forcing vehicles to stop to pay the required toll.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, guard houses are also used for security purposes whereby people have to sign in with appropriate documentation or used along with closed circuit television to keep a watchful eye on the perimeters of a facility. Because there are differences in need, you want to choose a company that will deliver the right product accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Important Assessment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One of the many services offered by B.I.G. is a complete assessment to determine the exact type of guard houses that you need. As part of this, the company will consider the type of business, operations, level of traffic, size and layout of the facility, and more. Based on the findings, a professional representative will make recommendations as to the type of booth that will best serve you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, all of the guard houses manufactured by B.I.G. Enterprises can be built to comply with current Americans Disability Act (ADA) regulations so if you have employees who work in guard houses who have a disability, those individuals will have the ability to perform the job efficiently and effectively.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although you would expect to see guard houses used by NASA, power plants, courthouses, and other similar organizations, guard shacks are beneficial to virtually any business. Regardless of your company&rsquo;s size or industry, you can select the security guard house design that best serves your needs. As part of your overall security plan, you can choose among various security guard room specifications. While standard guard shacks are available, greater peace of mind comes from a design based on your exact guard house specifications.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In today&rsquo;s climate, no business can take security for granted. Even if your company is a low risk, all it takes is one incident to change your business landscape forever. To maintain a safe work environment and protect proprietary documents, business property, and on-site equipment or machinery, having a design that includes your guard house specifications is essential.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Guard shacks offer tremendous benefits. At the top of the list, this type of structure enhances security. Usually, the very presence of a booth is enough to deter criminal activities. Guard shacks serve as the first line of defense, which brings comfort to employees. They will feel safer on the job, which allows them to maintain focus and continue being productive.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Something else to consider is that a prefabricated guard house can be assembled, disassembled, and moved to another location. That means if your needs change, this type of guard shack accommodates you. In addition, because prefabricated designs are so affordable, you can also have more than one guard shack on-site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To increase the security level at your business, it is important to choose the appropriate guard house design. As an example, you can opt for customization, including high-tech communications and monitoring systems, improved illuminated lighting, and a bullet- or blast-resistant design.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Even a more comfortable work environment enhances overall security. When your trained security personnel have a place to work that offers proper seating, heating and air conditioning, and a restroom, they stay more alert to potential threats.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Along with improved customer service for people who should gain access to the property, guard shacks are ideal for crime prevention. While security surveillance and a security system certainly help, seeing a staffed guard booth will make people targeting your company think twice about hitting your business.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instead of taking chances, you can step up security at your business. B.I.G. Enterprises whose website is bigbooth is an industry leader in the manufacturing of guard shacks and other prefabricated structures.

&lt;p&gt;Traditionally considered a luxury item, an on-premise &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot;&gt;security booth&lt;/a&gt; is now a workplace security necessity for many businesses, including hospitals, airports, resorts and spas, military bases, government buildings, and numerous private companies. The presence of a secure guardhouse at a business&amp;nbsp;entrance helps to improve workplace safety and sends a clear message to visitors and clients that they can feel safe while on the premises. Regardless of the style you select or the function your visitors booth will serve, a reputable company must manufacture the structure. Peace of mind comes from knowing that every aspect of the design and build will match your exact specifications.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Dont Make this Workplace Security Mistake!&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The number one mistake most businesses make is waiting until a threat or some kind of criminal activity has occurred before purchasing a guardhouse. Having an established check-point or &quot;guard shack&quot; is a preventive safety measure. As a result, your employees, customers, or patients will feel more secure, and you will be able to stop any potential security issues before they arise.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Secure Parking Lots&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Parking lot attendant booth with large windows.&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-064-parking-kiosk.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If your business must monitor vehicle movement and parking arrangements, a strategically placed parking booth is an ideal solution. Staffing a parking booth during business hours improves traffic flow and improves workplace safety by deterring crime and reducing automobile break-ins. Another benefit is that staffed parking booths provide a customer service touch-point, which is a significant benefit for maintaining client satisfaction.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Secure Your Workplace&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For businesses that need significant workplace security measures, such as medical laboratories, high-tech and software companies, chemical plants, and government buildings, video monitoring, and rigorous surveillance capabilities are a requirement. In these instances, security guards will need additional features and amenities built into their guardhouse to ensure the highest safety levels are met. These other &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;design options&lt;/a&gt; can include a specialized locking mechanism for the door, various pieces of communication and technology equipment, and outside lighting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In workplaces requiring &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;high-security levels&lt;/a&gt;, guard enclosures can be constructed of blast resistant and bulletproof materials. If unauthorized personnel or an intruder poses a threat, not only will the guard be protected, but they will be able to alert key security staff and law enforcement.

&lt;p&gt;Maintaining the security of a facilities premises has become a top concern of government officials, healthcare executives, farmers, data centers, and businesses of all kinds.

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Guard Shack &mdash; Popular &amp;amp; Important Add-On a Business Should Consider&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Regardless of your industry, keeping your business protected is a priority. In today&rsquo;s uncertain times, you must take steps to be certain your facility is secure at all times. While installing a security system is one way to keep your building safe, it&rsquo;s also vital to have trained staff at strategic locations on your property.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Naturally, when positioning security staff on your property, it&rsquo;s also important to take steps to be sure that staff can be in communication with one another and are protected from the elements. Installing a guard shack can help make that process easier. Depending on the nature of your facility, you might even find it beneficial to install more than one guard building. Given the latest advances in technology, it&rsquo;s possible to ensure that all of your security buildings are connected&mdash;from a communications point of view--to make certain you always know what is going on.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Positioning Guard Booths&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Guard shacks can be positioned anywhere on your property to greet visitors as they enter your grounds. A range of amenities is also available, including air conditioning. In fact, one of these facilities can function entirely on its own while staying completely connected to the rest of your operation.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Guard booths can do far more than simply guard the entrance or exit to your facility. Since these booths are small and can be positioned practically anywhere on your property, they can also be used for a number of other functions. For instance, these booths can also be used as ticket kiosks for events. Do you need a kiosk where you can provide information to visitors? One of these booths is excellent for such purposes. Distributing everything from maps to information packets, these booths give you the ability to have staff positioned exactly where they need to be. The modular design of these booths also ensures they can be easily transported to another location, if the need should arise. The portable nature of these booths makes them a great investment.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Customizing Your Guard Booth Design&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we take the greatest pride in delivering only the highest-quality guard booths. Built for complete functionality, these booths can also be customized to your specifications. The modular design even gives you the option to expand at some point in the future, if you would like. There are simply no limits to these products. You decide what you need and have the guard shack designed to meet your needs. For instance, you can have your booth built to whatever size you need and even include special features, such as interior countertops, windows, sliding windows, and electric load centers. Your guard booth will be ready to function in whatever manner you need.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Security is one of the most important needs in any business, and it is a need you simply cannot afford to ignore. Investing in a guard shack can give your facility a greater level of flexibility while staying at the cutting edge of technology.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;High-Tech Turnstiles &amp;amp; Guard Booths at the World Trade Center&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Of the original World Trade center complex, 7 World Trade Center (7 WTC) was the first tower to be rebuilt following the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. The tower is impressive&mdash;it&rsquo;s 52 stories with 1.7 million square feet of space. With a space that large and in such a symbolic location comes the need for elements like&amp;nbsp;guard houses&amp;nbsp;and turnstiles to protect the employees and visitors of 7 WTC.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The building reopened in May of 2006 and featured bulky, metal turnstiles that employees and guests said would strike their midsection or legs as they passed through. There were reports of frequent malfunctions. With many people passing through daily, an efficient system was required and traffic was not as well-regulated as it should have been.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Placed inside of a guard house, the turnstiles are designed for the convenience of the tenant, and the way it works is that the tenant has a badge with a barcode and swipes it above the scanner, which is prepared to handle proximity and barcode reads. The turnstile then opens swinging glass doors to allow the person through.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The property manager of 7 WTC says that people prefer the new turnstiles. In addition to reading an access card, the barcode also signals what floor the employee works on and an elevator is automatically assigned to that person.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Guests have a similar system. An employee registers the guest beforehand and the guest presents identification to security then receives a temporary day pass. The pass has a barcode that allows you to pass the turnstiles and allow security to direct you to your floor. With the old turnstile there was one incident where a person jumped the turnstile&mdash;he was apprehended by security guards from a&amp;nbsp;portable guard booth or security guard booth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Large events are handled rather elegantly. When the building anticipates many visitors coming in at once, you can override the turnstiles and leave them open for a set period of time while security checks in the guests. According to property management, there is a significant improvement in traffic flow and &ldquo;you can feel the quality workmanship in both the aesthetics and operation.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;World Trade Center building 3 is set to open in 2018 and will also feature these high-tech turnstiles and a variety of guard house designs.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;According to the property manager, there have been no problems and the turnstiles have improved efficiency and security.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;How Security Guard Booths Can Benefit Your Business&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want to increase the security of your facility, it is important to consider the inclusion of a guard booth. Not only are&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;security guard booths&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;an excellent way to increase the safety of your property or business, they improve overall efficiency. In fact, a security guard booth will establish a positive first impression and help you maintain better control access. Below are some of the primary benefits that a booth will provide your business.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Improved Flexibility&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One of the greatest benefits of security guard booths is the tremendous amount of flexibility. B.I.G. Enterprises offers extremely &ldquo;plug and play&rdquo; booths, which makes moving them from one location to another relatively easy. If your security needs ever change, this level of flexibility can be quite convenient.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These guard booths can be retrofitted for a variety of applications with relative ease. Regardless of what the future might hold for your facility, you can be assured that B.I.G. Enterprises has your security booth needs covered. To select the best booth design and layout according to your specific needs, our team of experts would be pleased to help.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Because selecting from a variety of wall finishes for these security booths is so easy, you are never locked into one particular design. Again, if your needs change at some point, this is a huge advantage. These guard booths can also be ordered prefabricated in a variety of sizes. In fact, an array of additional features and options can be incorporated into the finished design. Regardless of the facility size or your current needs, you can find a security booth customized to your business and premises.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Enhanced Security&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Enhanced security is one of the most significant benefits of adding a security booth to your facility. Regardless of the nature of your business, you may have numerous reasons for wanting better control over the access to your facility&rsquo;s entrance. With security booths, you have the opportunity to control access and always know precisely who is present on the premises at any given time. If theft or some other mishap occurs, having this information would be extremely valuable. B.I.G. Enterprises booths are built to be tough and durable. Whether you need to monitor equipment or control access to the front gate, these booths will give you greater peace of mind.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What to Look for in a Guard Booth Manufacturer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Beyond knowing what to look for in&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;security guard booths&lt;/em&gt;, you should have a good understanding of what to expect from a reputable booth manufacturer. One of the many factors to consider when choosing a manufacturer for your security booth is how long it has been in business. Additionally, you should know about the company&rsquo;s specific experience and consider the company&rsquo;s reputation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we are pleased to have a strong commitment to quality and over 50 years of experience necessary to deliver just what you need. If you have any questions about ordering your next&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;security guard booths&lt;/u&gt;,&amp;nbsp;our dedicated staff will be happy to assist.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Museums should not underestimate the role that security plays in creating an outstanding experience for their guests. Just as with an efficient entrance procedure at busy events or working air conditioning on a hot summer&rsquo;s day, you only notice the true value of top-class museum security team when it&rsquo;s not there.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yet, as the demographic of the typical museum-goer changes in the modern day, so do the methods of creating an optimal security team, including the need for security booths located at strategic points throughout the museum property.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With museum needs and technology changing all the time, it&rsquo;s important for museums to constantly keep an eye on modern trends in the industry. &amp;nbsp;The Art Institute of Chicago, which hosts 300,000 works of art, is an example of an institution that has embraced these trends to create an improved experience for its 1.5 million annual visitors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Below are two examples of how this famous establishment delivers security that goes above and beyond.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Collaboration&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Museums are in the service industry, and the security team is no different than curators or customer-facing staff in that regard. &amp;nbsp;That&rsquo;s why the Art Institute of Chicago security team regularly collaborates with these individuals to ask &lsquo;how can we serve people better?&rsquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This collaboration extends outside the museum too. Art Institute of Chicago has strong relationships with law enforcement team at every level throughout the city, including the FBI&rsquo;s art theft division. It also works closely with event organizers to ensure that an overload of visitors has no detrimental effect on security operations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For example, when the annual Lollapalooza Festival heads into town, the two parties share information throughout the event. Often, additional fencing, equipment, portable security booths, and personnel will be deployed in these situations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Innovation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Security staff are encouraged to give their own feedback as well. Many suggestions on signage, way-finding, and ticketing at the Art Institute of Chicago were made by security staff lower down the career ladder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In 2016, one officer suggested that a small ticket booth be deployed at the entrance of a temporary Vincent Van Gogh exhibition, as so many visitors were being turned away from this entrance to buy tickets at the main entrance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This idea demonstrates the kind of forward thinking that could encourage other museums to install security shacks at new areas to maximize protection in ways that were previously not considered.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Museum security today is ever-changing to keep up with advancements in technology and new demands for patrons&rsquo; safety and well-being while on-site. Following the example of some of the top museums can provide insight and ideas for how to achieve optimal security at any location.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It&rsquo;s been almost a year since the world turned horrified eyes to Las Vegas where a country music festival had become the scene of the deadliest mass shooting in recent U.S. history. There were 58 fatalities, hundreds of injuries, and unspeakable panic as authorities scrambled to find the killer and his motive. In the immediate aftermath and continuing today, people have grappled with the question of &lsquo;what could have been done differently?&rsquo; Perhaps no one is asking this question more than festival organizers, hotel management, and casino owners.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One suggestion being mulled over is that the number of security guard shacks should be increased at hotel properties and outdoor events. &amp;nbsp;A greater number of security checkpoints throughout a music festival, for example, could ensure that even the musical artists and their entourages abide by a &ldquo;no weapons&rdquo; policy with equipment and bags being subjected to multiple searches. Increased visibility of security throughout festival grounds by the addition of multiple security guard houses could also act as a deterrent to potential threats.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Casino security experts have chimed in on the need for additional security measures as well. After the Las Vegas tragedy, many have advocated for updated safety policies and procedures, more resources for staff training, and research into new technology to address concerns. While casinos already have multiple ways to protect the cash on-site, additional training of staff could pair well with strategies in place to protect guests by employees (not just security) striking a balance of hospitality and keen observation skills. The more observant and engaged with customers an employee is, the more likely they are to notice suspicious behavior.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;More visible external security measures at multiple hotel entryways or at the entrance to festivals is another way to enhance safety. Portable security booths can be customized and can be arranged in a variety of ways for temporary events like festivals. Security personnel can feel reassured by features like bulletproof barriers and air conditioning for their comfort. Anything that improves the conditions in the security guard house improves the performance of eagle-eyed guards.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In any case, improved security is an issue that no one is taking lightly. Safety is the primary concern for all involved, from hotel management and festival organizers to professional security guards and patrons of these establishments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is a time of unforeseen domestic and international terrorism and massive political strife and tension, both at home and abroad. In these fraught times, it has become increasingly common to see these tensions manifest as different groups of citizens increasingly square off. Nonetheless, a diverse workforce is necessary not only for equality, but also for the increasing diverse needs of clients and for a global economy to be adequately addressed. &amp;nbsp;As such, it is important to account for the increased security needs that these unique sensitivities will invariably bring up in different workplace environments. An invaluable tool to ensure every workplace is safe and secure is the use of a portable guard booth. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As workplaces diversify to meet the demands of an increasingly diverse economy, the security and public safety organizations that oversee the safety of these workplaces are also diversifying. As such, new security threats posed by the moral, religious, value-driven, and generational clashes that can so easily arise in these types of contexts absolutely needs to be addressed. This means that rather than worrying about combatting diversity, which will only become more prevalent in the future, there needs to be more focus on improving security technology to meet the unique needs of a diverse workforce. Outdoor equipment shelters can be a great way to store any extra security equipment and technology needed in a diverse workplace environment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Additionally, a portable guard booth is an adaptable solution that will provide employees with an easy access point through which to maintain healthy communications regarding potential security threats so they can be addressed before workplace safety is compromised. By addressing security by stationing a portable guard booth on-site in a particularly diverse workplace environment, everyone gets the best of both worlds in that it becomes possible to keep the workforce safe, while employers can address the need for increased safety and security that diversity brings. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While a portable guard booth can be invaluable in neutralizing any type of cultural clash that might arise in the workplace before it turns violent, with increased security comes the need for more prefabricated shelters and outdoor equipment shelters in which to house updated security technology. Prefabricated shelters can provide an ideal outlet for workplace security officers to constantly monitor video technology. Meanwhile, outdoor equipment shelters allow for secure off-site storage of any extra safety equipment and monitors. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B.I.G. Enterprises specializes in providing everything that a workplace or urban area needs to meet the security needs of a diverse workforce, including the widest selection of prefabricated shelters and outdoor equipment shelters. In addition, we can build a custom portable guard booth to ensure that your workplace or metro environment is both adaptable and safe well into the future. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Buildings like the Guggenheim in Bilbao, the Sydney Opera House, or the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth are all inspiring structures for their unmistakable architecture and presence. That is why it&rsquo;s incredibly important to make sure a visitor&rsquo;s first physical experience with the facility is a positive one with a beautifully designed and constructed access control booth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Making a Good First Impression with an Access Control Booth&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As people are driving up to an iconic building, they are typically enamored with what is in front of them. They have feelings of awe and wonder at what is inside. The excitement builds as they draw closer to the experience that lies beyond those front doors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A poorly designed access control booth can squash the emotions that architects spent months or years constructing their building to evoke from visitors. A jarring, out of place, or cheap looking access booth draws attention away from the main show, but a well-designed booth is a part of the overall design and architecture of the facility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When the design of the booth flows with the design of the rest of the building, visitors can have a seamless experience at every point of interaction. These little things may not seem overly important, but it&rsquo;s the details, like an access control booth, that truly solidify the overall aesthetic of a design.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And don&rsquo;t forget the purpose of a booth at the entrance of a &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/best-high-security-entrance-solutions-facilities&quot;&gt;campus: security&lt;/a&gt;. Having a booth adds significantly to the feelings of safety and security visitors feel because there is a literal barrier between them and the outside world. This subtle detail can drastically improve someone&rsquo;s experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;What is Access Control?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Are access control booths even necessary? Yes! Access control allows you to selectively restrict access to your location.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The practice is common for office buildings, museums, government buildings, schools, and sports complexes among many others. These types of facilities have an extra emphasis on security because of the volume of people coming through, the sensitivity of documents or data stored inside, or because of the importance of the people inside.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Controlling who goes in and out of such facilities is the first and arguably most important line of defense. Safety is paramount, and access control is what keeps things in order. A physical barrier is key to access control because it deters or prevents malignant parties from entering the property.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Having the barrier and control afforded by an access control booth gives those behind the barrier an important sense of security and safety. As discussed previously, emotional safety can greatly add to the positive experience for visitors. It also can allow employees and other people who are working in the building to do so without worry of outside interference.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Other Benefits&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to the sense of security for those that are on-premise at the location and having a physical barrier to deter or prevent entry, an access control booth has a number of other &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/security-guard-shacks-important-your-employees-safety&quot;&gt;security benefits&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Verification and logging&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; the guard or attendant in the booth is able to provide real-time verification of the identities of visitors. Also, they can log traffic activity or any incidents.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Eyes and ears&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; the booth attendant is privy to every person going in and out of the facility. They are able to notice anything out of the ordinary. They are also able to help people with simple instructions on where to do, improving a visitor&rsquo;s experience.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Eliminates &ldquo;Piggybacking&rdquo; &mdash; Piggybacking is the act of an unauthorized car or person going through an automated entry point directly after an authorized party before the automation closes the gate. Having a person manually control access can eliminate the occurrence.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Psychological Barrier &mdash; Simply having a guard in a booth gives someone with bad intentions another obstacle and is an effective deterrent.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Important Things to Consider in an Access Control Booth&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/data-center-protection&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Access control booth with contemporary design&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-booths-data-center_0.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0px 15px 15px; float: right; width: 294px; height: 294px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;As previously mentioned, an access control booth&rsquo;s design should reflect the architecture of the rest of the campus. This will keep the booth from sticking out like a sore thumb.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But there are other factors concerning safety, defense, usability, and durability that need to be considered when &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/request-quote&quot;&gt;configuring a security booth&lt;/a&gt;. Here are a few major factors to think about:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Safety&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; An access control booth is meant to be a barrier and deterrent, but it must also keep the occupants of the booth safe from an assortment of attacks. Windows, doors, and walls need to be bulletproof, the booth itself needs to be blast resistant, and the doors and windows need to have strong locks.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Defense&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; In any defense situation, the most important key to keeping people safe and mitigating damage is communication. Because the booth attendant is typically the first line of defense, they need to be equipped with communication tools to inform others of anything that may be happening on the ground.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Usability&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; A booth needs to be easy and comfortable for the guard to work in. That means installed shelving, electrical wiring, HVAC, and doors and windows that work even after constant use.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Durability&lt;/em&gt; &mdash; An access control booth needs to stand up to the elements and use for years and still look and work perfectly. That means paint, materials, and hardware that is built to last.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, our booths can be &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;customized&lt;/a&gt; to fit any architectural design. They can feature bullet and blast-resistant materials and construction to keep occupants safe. Booths are designed and built with interior shelves and flooring, lighting, and wiring for electricity and HVAC. Our&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/videos&quot;&gt; intensive painting process&lt;/a&gt; looks great after years in the elements and our door and window hardware is built to last.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Security cameras for perimeter protection on a grey wall&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-cameras.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1600px; height: 1067px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a world full of uncertainty, perimeter protection provides peace of mind. While it&rsquo;s impossible to plan for every possible scenario, evaluating your security of premises and taking steps to fix vulnerabilities is the key to minimizing risk. Hope for the best, but plan for the worst.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Implementing established and cutting-edge security solutions may seem like a daunting task, but it&rsquo;s easier and more affordable than most business owners realize or assume. And, the investment is absolutely worth every penny and moment spent. After all, you can&rsquo;t put a cost on human lives.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are some steps you can take to ensure the safety of your staff and guests, as well as your company&rsquo;s assets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1. Establish Emergency Protocol&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Employees performing a risk assessment for perimeter protection&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-staff-meeting.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1600px; height: 1067px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Knowledge and training are just as important as installing perimeter protection equipment. In fact, few would argue that your security team is far-and-away the most vital component to your overall safety. Of course, your team must also have access to the necessary equipment. The best security is a well-trained team &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; proper infrastructure and gear.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Start by considering all possible emergency scenarios &mdash; even the unlikely ones. Risk assessment varies from business to business, so there&rsquo;s no single formula. Talk to your security team and employees so you can get a well-rounded idea of potential threats. Once you&rsquo;ve made a solid list of things that could go wrong, you can find proper perimeter protection solutions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For example, say there&rsquo;s an active shooter. Would it make more sense to evacuate the building or go into lockdown? How would your guards respond? Would they try to neutralize the threat themselves or wait for police to arrive?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In any type of emergency situation, you must have a plan ready to enact immediately when every second is critical. You may want to consult with a professional for in-depth guidance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;2. Install Security Infrastructure&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The importance of installing &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot;&gt;security booths&lt;/a&gt; cannot be overstated, for a number of reasons. In order to provide adequate security of premises, your security team needs a home base. Security booths act as central locations where your security team can handle perimeter protection safely, with all of the essential equipment in one accessible hub.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Beyond acting as an impenetrable fortress (our booths are bullet and explosion-resistant), security booths are an extremely effective deterrent. When it comes to protecting your business, your first priority should be preventing emergency scenarios from happening in the first place. If a criminal is planning an attack, they&rsquo;re much more likely to reconsider when they see your security infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every business and property is unique. You won&rsquo;t find a one-size-fits-all solution. That&rsquo;s why we offer a variety of &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;booth designs&lt;/a&gt;. Moreover, we create customized perimeter protection infrastructure that&rsquo;s catered to your unique requirements.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With over 50 years of experience, we know what works. You can depend on B.I.G. booths to deliver the crucial &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;security features&lt;/a&gt; that allow you to de-escalate situations as quickly and safely as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;3. Use Modern Camera Equipment&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So many businesses are still relying on outdated monitoring equipment. While that grainy, black-and-white VHS footage may have been the best available when you bought it, there are better options on the market today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cameras are multifaceted tools that help you to A) respond to threats in real-time and B) prevent them from occurring again. A big part of perimeter protection is being able to assist law enforcement agencies after the fact. It&rsquo;s possible that the subject won&rsquo;t be caught immediately, and that&rsquo;s where your footage comes in.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Besides (hopefully) capturing the identity of criminals, cameras are absolutely vital when you need to protect the security of premises immediately, while the situation is unfolding. From the safety of a security booth, your guards can check cameras to see which areas are safe. They can pinpoint the current location of threats and then take fast action.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;4. Protect Your Data&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In today&rsquo;s largely digital landscape, data is more valuable than ever &mdash; not just for social media platforms, but for criminals, as well. Your perimeter protection can be compromised if someone is able to hack your blueprints or lock codes, for example.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These days, there&rsquo;s simply no excuse to not have computer security in place. One data breach can have disastrous repercussions, in more ways than one. Your computer systems must be fully encrypted so there&rsquo;s no way that someone could access information that could leave you vulnerable.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to safeguarding your computer data, it&rsquo;s vital that you shred all documents that could provide a criminal with private information. Even something seemingly harmless &mdash; a memo from an employee, for example &mdash; could provide a criminal with a name that they could use to potentially gain access to the facility. That brings us to the final point:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;5. Verify Your Guests&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A massive part of perimeter protection is making sure that each and every person who steps foot on your property should, in fact, be there. Security breaches aren&rsquo;t always forceful. Most criminals would prefer to simply be allowed in. Unfortunately, by the time you realize that there&rsquo;s been a breach, it might be too late.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your security booth acts as a location where visitors must be verified well before they hit the parking lot, let alone the main building. Your guard should have a list of any visitors to ensure security of premises. If the guest isn&rsquo;t listed, you should have protocol in place that makes it possible for guards to verify guests before they enter. No exceptions.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>Infrastructure: The Hidden Component of Defense</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Infrastructure: The Hidden Component of Defense&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There is a part of the Department of Defense (DoD) that we rarely think about but is a vital part of national security: infrastructure. It&rsquo;s not glamorous, but without electric, water, wastewater, security and natural gas systems, the DoD would not have the structure necessary to fulfill its mission.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a recent study by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the number of disruptions to utilities that occurred over a six-year period resulted in a negative impact to taxpayers of $29 million.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Some incidents were due to design errors, uncontrollable weather issues and equipment begin poorly maintained or in use past its intended lifespan.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Disruptions will happen, but some are avoidable if the more vulnerable systems are addressed first and preemptive measures are in place. The systems in need of the most protection can be supported by back-up systems and generators. With backup systems in place, widespread outages can be avoided. And, with excellence in perimeter security to protect the facility, infrastructure can be better assured.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Strategic planning can also involve moving personnel to different bases in case of utility disruptions and including utility equipment updates and equipment plans, which can keep operations flowing. However, some military units are inconsistent in reporting utility disruptions. Without consistent data, it makes making informed decisions about vulnerabilities and funding difficult. The GAO study recommended that the Army, Air Force and Marines make the effort to collect consistent information regarding utility disruptions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The DoD may also have the opportunity to work with private sector companies to improve and add infrastructure such as wind turbines, solar panels and&amp;nbsp;security shacks. The flexibility and space that military bases occupy make it easy to facilitate these relationships. Another possibility is to have dual-purpose infrastructure; DoD could power the local area while also serving as a backup to the DoD facility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security doesn&rsquo;t always mean&amp;nbsp;guard houses&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;security shacks, but rather ensuring that military and defense services are supported by a healthy and strong infrastructure. By identifying weaknesses and anticipating disruptions, DoD support can become a more sustainable and durable.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>Lessons from Manchester: Security Booth Protection for Commercial Businesses and Events</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Security Booth Protection for Commercial Businesses and Events&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Concert venues and movie theaters will always be popular locations for the general public. As a result, these areas are at risk for terrorist attacks because of the large number of people at events in these locations. Terrorists are drawn to these locations because of what these crowds represent to their ideology.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Why Event Crowds Need Security Booth Protection&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The terrorist and shooting attacks in Aurora, Colorado in 2012, Paris in 2015, the Brussels airport in 2016, Manchester in May 2017, and in Las Vegas of 2017, all spread shock and horror around the world. In their aftermath, they raised many questions about how security can be increased for these public events and spaces.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Event crowds will continue to be ideal targets for terrorist attacks due to the potential magnitude of the impact. While the Manchester concert audience was vulnerable, the security perimeter checks did help prevent the bomber from completely entering the venue. If there had been no security checkpoint and he had been permitted to enter the venue further, the casualties and damage could have been even worse than they were. The terrorist responsible for the Manchester attacks detonated his vest near the security area because that&rsquo;s as far as he could go. He realized he would not be able to fully enter the event venue.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Security Booths&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
In the five terrorist cases mentioned above, there was resulting disorder due to the large volume of people rushing out through limited exits. People rushed out through available doors away from the noise of gunfire or explosions. Chaotic audiences will hinder quick exits, increasing the need for alternative solutions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. has prefabricated security booths, including booths with wheels, to help secure entrance and exit security checkpoints. With a variety of options like bullet resistant booths and portable security guard booths, these structures can provide additional security measures for large event venues and commercial business areas.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Additional Security Recommendations&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;Increase security checkpoints and perimeters with the presence of bullet resistant guard booths. Portable guard booths on wheels can help change the checkpoint locations, based on the crowd size and event, with ease.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;Place security perimeters at a further distance. This will discourage potential attackers from entering the venue or business, increasing protection for large crowds.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;At each security checkpoint booth, all guards, local police officers, and management personnel should be aware of shelter-in-place plans. This may prevent movement mayhem in the event of an emergency.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Open the lines of communication with local security professionals working at nearby locations and with police officers.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review emergency plans so that all law enforcement and guards are aware of security developments and plans.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While security screening perimeters decreased the impact of the Manchester terrorist attack, many venues and businesses can increase security further by installing guard booths and engaging in emergency planning.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;A Small, Portable Shelter Can Be a Valuable Asset to Your Business&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For many businesses, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/why-should-you-consider-purchasing-portable-guard-house&quot;&gt;small guard shacks&lt;/a&gt; offer lots of possibilities at a very affordable price. First and foremost is the fact that when you invest in a &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/trailer-booth&quot;&gt;small portable shelter&lt;/a&gt;, you aren&rsquo;t committing yourself to a fixed location. This kind of guard shack is ideal for businesses overseeing large construction sites and &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/applications-portable-guard-house-industrial-operations&quot;&gt;industrial operations&lt;/a&gt;, as well as those responsible for hosting large public events, festivals, concerts, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/importance-guard-booths-sports-complexes&quot;&gt;sporting events.&lt;/a&gt; With a small guard shack, you can set up your ticketing or &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/parking-booths-your-first-line-defense&quot;&gt;parking booth&lt;/a&gt;, security station, or informational kiosk wherever you need to on any given day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Small portable shelters offer a multi-purpose, fast-acting solution when you don&rsquo;t want or can&rsquo;t have a permanent guard booth. Once you understand the tips and tricks for making the most of a relatively small space, you&rsquo;ll be glad you made the investment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are eight great tips to get the most use out of your small portable shelter:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1. Do Your Homework&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to outfitting a small guard shack, there are lots of possibilities. Start by coming up with your list of business requirements for how this space will be used. Will it be staffed by a security guard or a parking lot attendant? Will the staff stationed in it need computer or internet access? Will employees be handling cash or accepting payments? Having a firm idea of the needs will help you determine what is necessary and what isn&rsquo;t.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;2. Look at the Floorplan&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Even though the space will be small, it&rsquo;s essential to look at the floorplan and determine where necessary items should be placed, like a sliding window, the entry door, a desk, a chair, and filing cabinets. You want to make sure this small portable shelter can accommodate the movements and needs of the person working inside.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;3. Keep it Simple&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to outfitting a small guard shack, you want to keep it simple and highly functional. Clutter needs to be kept to a minimum, so carefully selecting storage and work equipment is essential. If you try to add too much, it&rsquo;ll become difficult for the employee to do their work successfully.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Small elevated clerk&rsquo;s booth&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-089-elevated-clerk.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;4. Small Spaces Need Comfortable Seating&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It might be tempting to choose the most compact chair possible to cut down on space, but for staff working in the guard booth, having specifically designed comfortable seating for small spaces will help them do their work more effectively.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;5. Keep the Interior Bright&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;White or light colors are the best paint options for the inside of any small portable shelter. It&rsquo;ll keep the space bright and even help it appear a little larger.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;6 Maximize Hidden Storage&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As a result of following steps 1 through 3, you&rsquo;ll be able to identify spaces where you can incorporate hidden storage. Hidden storage could be for an employee to place their personal belongings, keep paperwork, or store any sort of small items that may be necessary to those entering or exiting the facility (such as hard hats, electronic equipment, or visitor passes).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;7. Make the Technology Mobile&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you need to incorporate computers or technology into your small, portable shelter, consider utilizing a mobile monitor arm that extends from a wall. This set-up will free up counter or desk space.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;8. Review and Readjust as Necessary&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One of the best benefits of small portable shelters is that they can serve many various purposes over time. When you keep the floor plan simple and interior space free of clutter, you&rsquo;ll easily be able to adjust the layout based on the needs of the work at hand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;military security man working in a guard house&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/military-security-guard-house.jpeg&quot; style=&quot;width: 780px; height: 520px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A prefabricated security guard house provides your residence, business, or facility peace of mind and increased protection against external threats. The primary function of these structures is to offer a strategic location for your security personnel to operate and give them the tools and shelter they need to perform at their best. But the space, time, and investment that you make in your guard booths means that you&rsquo;ll want to get the highest return&ndash;&ndash;and that means taking advantage of your &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;security booth design options&lt;/a&gt; to use your unit in more ways than one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Fortunately, there are several ways to utilize your security guard house in addition to empowering your security team. Below, we&rsquo;ll outline a few of them and explain how to get the most out of your guard booth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Multiple Locations&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First and foremost, if you invest in a portable prefabricated guard booth, you can use the same unit at various locations. If the primary traffic route moving in and out of your location changes often, a &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/trailer-booth&quot;&gt;portable booth&lt;/a&gt; is the way to go. For example, a university campus may only need a security booth outside of a sports venue on game days, a construction site might need to alternate locations to use their booth as a secure equipment enclosure, or a parking lot may need to adjust the location of the attendant booth depending on the volume of vehicles on a given day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A portable security guard house is a versatile option for anyone looking into guard shacks, especially if your needs tend to fluctuate from day to day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Machine &amp;amp; Equipment Enclosures&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/construction-worker-site.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your security guard house can double up as a storage unit for equipment and other needed items. This is a particularly appealing option for situations in which your security team tends to operate remotely from the booth itself. If the staff are more on-the-go than stationary, the highly secure, protected shelter of your guard shack can serve as an excellent equipment enclosure. The high quality materials, including bullet resistant components and reinforced doors, walls, and flooring can keep valuable items like machines and other heavy equipment safe and secure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For example, on construction sites, workers often carry expensive (and heavy) tools that are difficult to remove from the site entirely on a day-to-day basis. A secure, portable booth on site makes it easy to lock up these valuable items each night while making them easily accessible for workers to pick up again in the morning.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Attendant Structures &amp;amp; Relaxation Stations&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your security guard house does not necessarily have to accommodate security personnel only! Parking attendants, ticket takers, and maintenance workers can utilize prefabricated security stations, too.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;By setting up a booth in your parking lot, deck, or garage, you can provide your attendant a place to successfully collect fees from drivers. Ticket takers at major events like football games or concerts can keep a safe distance from herds of fans eager to get inside the venue.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For on-site maintenance workers, guard booths can serve as break rooms and relaxation stations. Your guard booth can be outfitted with HVAC units, heating and cooling systems, bathrooms, and more to make these spaces comfortable and give these employees an opportunity to take a load off.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Material Storage&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Like doubling your guard booth to be used for a highly secure equipment enclosure, your valuable materials may need secure storage as well. From construction sites to military bases, there is always a need for additional storage when it comes to expensive materials that may be enticing to thieves. Your security guard house can be designed to account for these materials so that you do not need to sacrifice space that security team members need.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Observation Towers&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sure, the inside of your B.I.G. prefabricated security booth is nice, but you can take advantage of the outside, too! Whether you&rsquo;re protecting a government facility or temporary basecamp, leveraging the height of your booth as an eagle&rsquo;s nest or observation deck can give you the upper hand in a potentially dangerous situation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Consider a security guard house design that includes a ladder and hatch from the inside of the booth to the rooftop, with a barrier fence surrounding the rooftop border. This can enable you to see threats from a distance with your own eyes &ndash;&ndash; and may give you the extra time you need to take decisive action.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Mounting a Counter-Offensive&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a post-9/11 world, military bases and government facilities have doubled down on their security precautions and equipment. If your situation includes the potential for extreme threats, an intelligently designed security guard house can not only be a central location for security personnel to work safely, it can also be where you stage a counter-offensive if attacked.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our security guard booths can be outfitted with a variety of &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/blast&quot;&gt;bullet and blast resistant materials&lt;/a&gt;, including doors, windows, walls, ceilings, and floors. They can also be designed to include slide-open gun ports to make it easy to return fire at assailants, high-beam spotlights to blind approaching attackers, and gun lockers to keep security personnel armed and ready.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Our Favorite School Security Solutions&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to campus safety, a school security booth is the first line of defense to protect students, faculty, and visitors on any school&rsquo;s campus. There are a myriad of security threats that educational facilities face and every institution needs to be prepared in order to avoid the worst-case scenarios.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we understand the unique challenges of campus security that campus administrators and security personnel must deal with on a day to day basis. That&rsquo;s why we have created school security solutions specifically for this type of environment. Below, we&rsquo;ll outline a few of our favorites, including some of the unique features and specs that make these units the right choice when it comes to school security booths.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1. The Campus Protector&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/campus-protector-guard-booths-distinguished-as-leaders-in-security&quot;&gt;The Campus Protector&lt;/a&gt; is one of our most powerful and practical school security solutions. This innovative booth helps to support the security personnel to ensure they have the resources necessary to protect campuses from dangerous and criminal activity such as break-ins, theft, assaults, and shootings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This unit features a galvanized steel floor covered with textile composite tiles, a perimeter gutter system, and a standing seam-style roof with a baked-on Kynar 500 finish. The booth is prepared with factory-applied brick and welded-on brick ties so that the installation of brick onsite can match the rest of the brick in the surrounding buildings. It&rsquo;s pre-wired for lighting and communications systems and installation is as simple, making it a prime choice as a school security solution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Campus Protector has a fully insulated wall and roof, as well as dual-pane insulating glass to ensure the booth meets energy code requirements. Finally, this school security booth is fully ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some additional features for the Campus Protector include:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Data/telephone connections&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Energy-efficient lighting&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Interior shelving&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;

	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. The Ticket Processor&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/campus-protector-guard-booths-distinguished-as-leaders-in-security&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Brick information and parking booth&quot; height=&quot;582&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/march_2016_1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;504&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, ticket-takers on campus need protection too. And that&rsquo;s exactly the type of school security solution our &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/ticket-booth-capable-of-handling-stadium-crowds&quot;&gt;Ticket Processor&lt;/a&gt; model provides. With a galvanized steel construction, this state-of-the-art Ticket Processor booth is designed specifically for use at college stadiums and arenas. The design is intended to enable ticket booth employees to handle the intense, high volume crowds that show up to root for their school&rsquo;s sports team. The solid steel framework makes this a sturdy, durable unit &ndash; a critical feature to protect against the elements, as well as rowdy fans.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The prefabricated station can be fully customized with a wide array of features, including:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;An LED lighting system&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Additional electrical outlets&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Data/communication J-Boxes&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Energy Star rated HVAC&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Galvanized steel plate floor covered with B.I.G. exclusive interlocking polyvinyl chloride tiles&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3. Transit Shelters&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For many colleges and universities, campuses occupy hundreds, if not thousands, of acres of land, with buildings spread across distances that make walking to class &ndash; and getting there on time &ndash; difficult. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s not unusual for campuses to have their own transportation systems, such as shuttles or buses, which help students navigate the campus real estate more easily.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A proper &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/transit-shelter&quot;&gt;transit shelter&lt;/a&gt; is an important part of a school security solution and it makes waiting for those shuttles a much more enjoyable experience for students, and an overall healthy campus lifestyle. We have a variety of transit shelter models available, each of which can be customized to meet the school security booth needs of your campus and outfitted to match its surroundings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although parking booths are used by personnel as shelter while assisting drivers or taking fees, they also serve a critical role in protecting your business. Because a parking attendant booth sits on the physical perimeter of your company and because foot and vehicle traffic must pass through before getting onto the property, it becomes your first line of defense.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Due to increasing threat levels, top parking booth manufacturers now offer a host of unique products. These booths provide attendants with a more comfortable work environment while being highly secure. As a result, the personnel staffing the booth have the opportunity to take quick action if an issue arises.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Access control is a major consideration in keeping your employees and business safe. The attendant can make an informed decision as to who can and cannot get through. The combination of properly training attendants and a guard booth with the right features is a huge step toward improved safety.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An attendant working a parking attendant booth is your company&rsquo;s eyes and ears. The attendant can gather pertinent information, including the individual&rsquo;s driver&rsquo;s license number, the vehicle plate number, reason for the visit, the area of the company where the person is going, and so on. Based on that information, a trained professional can determine if something seems amiss.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As the first line of defense, you can choose from various add-on features, such as extra lighting, high-tech communications, recording or monitoring technology, and even bullet-resistant walls. Having the ability to monitor and control access is very efficient in keeping people and property safe.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To ensure the safety of your company and employees, investing in a properly equipped parking booth will go a long way. The combination of trained personnel with a well-built booth designed for maximum protection has become necessary. Regardless whether your company deals with sensitive information or has received threats, or you just want to give your employees peace of mind, you have every right to take appropriate security measures.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you are looking for an economic and effective way to bolster protection, a guard booth is an exceptional solution. Whether choosing a standard or customized design, the booth&rsquo;s very presence is often enough to make a substantial difference in how people view your operations.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The featured unit was built&lt;/strong&gt; for a transportation hub of one of the world&rsquo;s largest overnight delivery businesses. &lt;text style=&quot;color:darkred&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fabricated from galvanized steel with exterior panes simulating Alucobond panels,&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/text&gt;it has a large awning style overhang, full ADA compliant restroom, tinted tempered dual pane insulating glass, full electrical package with LED lighting recessed in an acoustic tile drop ceiling, the appropriate number of convenience outlets, data &amp;amp; communication J-Boxes with conduits, and a commercial ductless split system HVAC with supply air duct to the restroom.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And, it was delivered with the state approval insignia making permitting easy.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;li&gt;Arguably, B.I.G.&rsquo;s most innovative approach is its architectural flexibility&mdash;customers can trust that any booth can be designed to appear that it is custom built just for their environment&mdash;and not contain any &ldquo;custom&rdquo; cost.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Portable Guard Shack &ndash; Primary Benefits&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. is a U.S.-based company that has become a leader in the industry for guard booths, security stations, attendant shacks, high security guard houses, and much more. With more than 50 years of experience in the business, this company has the knowledge and expertise required to design and manufacture a state-of-the-art portable guard shack.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Guard shacks from B.I.G. are prefabricated so once construction is complete based on exact specifications, the shack is delivered to your site. The guard shack is unloaded from the truck, secured in place and connected to power. Based on design, there is never added expense or time delays associated with assembly or construction.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Primary Benefits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Specific to a portable guard shack, there are many incredible benefits, with examples to include the following:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Portable &ndash; Because the guard shack is shipped fully assembled, it can be relocated where ever wanted, making it portable. If you find the shack needs to be placed in a different area or perhaps used at another site, it can be loaded onto a truck with a forklift or crane and then moved.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Affordable &ndash; In addition, a portable guard shack is an economical means of providing security personnel with a secure building in which to work but without strength or safety ever being compromised. Compared to having a guard house built on-site, a product from B.I.G. is a much more affordable option. However, a portable guard shack is also a great long-term investment, again because it is so well-made but also portable.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;Design Flexibility &ndash; The professionals with B.I.G. can customize a portable guard shack however needed. This might be something simple like size or layout but it can also consist of high-tech amenities and features. Regardless of your need, a portable guard shack manufactured by this company can be designed anyway you want.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Turnaround &ndash; Going with a portable guard shack also provides a quick turnaround. With this product being pre-engineered, the architect&rsquo;s design time is streamlined. In addition, your portable guard shack is bundled with other guard shacks that are being shipped to your area, thus lowering your shipping costs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Without question, a portable guard shack from B.I.G. is a solid investment. These units are built to last and designed according to your precise specifications.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Portable Guard Shacks and Their Advantages&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;A&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;portable guard shack&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;is a building that is physically manned as part of safety protocols for your business. Although a permanent shack is a consideration, one that is portable offers the advantage of mobility. For that reason, the popularity of portable guard shacks has grown substantially. Especially when the shack is manufactured by a reputable company, you know that you will get more &ldquo;bang for your buck&rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Advantages to Consider&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While this type of structure is called a &ldquo;shack&rdquo;, it is actually a modern building that can be enhanced with multiple features and amenities and even customized based on your specific needs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Start with the fact that the shack is portable. For this, manufacturing is done off-site. When finished, the structure is delivered to your location, and then placed anywhere you wish. That means that if your company needs to move an access point or information kiosk elsewhere on your campus, it is simple to tow it to its new location.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;This is both convenient and a huge cost savings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As stated, construction of a portable shack takes place off-site. During construction of a permanent shack, everyone at your company would have to work around the mess but also the loud noise of equipment and machinery. The possibility of temporarily losing parking spaces is another concern. With a portable shack, business goes on without disruption.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A guard shack can serve multiple purposes. Although its primary use is to give the operator control of the outside of your business, thereby adding a layer of protection that is critical in today&rsquo;s society, it can be used for other things. For example, the portable shack can be used as a material storage unit, observation point, attendance booth for special events, and much more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Beyond security, a&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;portable guard shack&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;creates a comfortable work environment for the guard. The shack can be enhanced and even customized with numerous features and amenities. These include air conditioning and heat, comfortable floor mats, adjustable shelving, and cabinetry, among other things. Not only are your employees more comfortable, they are more alert and productive. If your situation warrants it, the guard shack can also be designed with tempered glass and a bulletproof exterior.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Choosing the Best&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we ensure that you get everything you want and need in a&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;portable guard shack&lt;/u&gt;. You can learn more about this and other products by visiting our website or to meet with a team expert, please give us a call.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Prefabricated Guard Booths: Modular Design for Your Guard Booth&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A common misconception about prefabricated guard booths is that they all have a cookie-cutter design and standardized design elements. While it is true that these guard booths are constructed using similar methods, they are custom designed in a way that specifically meets the needs of a facility. For that reason, guard booths that come prefabricated are actually flexible, making them the perfect solution for a variety of uses.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
What makes modular guard booths such a great investment is that it is possible to move portable guard booths from one location to another with relative ease, you can choose from a host of amenities. Not only will a portable guard booth bolster security and functionality, it provides a comfortable space for your security team to work in.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure that you get what you need, it is important to consider only the best guard booth manufacturers, those with experience, expertise, and solid reputations. Oftentimes, this kind of portable guard booth is relatively small in size, with just enough room for one attendant along with storage space for any type of equipment required for the job. If preferred, you can opt to have amenities added to prefabricated guard booths, including heat and cooling, a restroom, skylight, and more. In fact, a portable guard booth can be designed to be bullet resistant.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Overall, modular guard booths have one primary purpose, which is to provide an additional form of protection for your company, while keeping the attendant safe. However, for security staff that spend hours inside of a portable guard booth, some comforts are necessary. This is why guard booths fabricated off-site are made to protect the attendant from outside elements, while still being convenient for talking to people coming onto and going off of the property.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
With modular prefabricated guard booths, the entire guard shack is constructed offsite by reputable guard booth manufacturers. Once complete, the guard booth is delivered to your site, ready to bolt to a pre-existing concrete pad that you have prepared. While modular guard booths provide multiple purposes, the primary focus is on better security for your company.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Whether used as an employee checkpoint or to control non-employee foot and vehicle traffic, a portable guard booth is an exceptional choice. At B.I.G. Enterprises, we take immense pride in making top-of-the-line modular prefabricated guard booths. To learn more about our different products, please visit our website.

        <td>Preparing for an Active Shooter: Best Practices for Security Buildings</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Preparing for an Active Shooter: Best Practices for Security Buildings&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When an active shooter opened fire in the Capital Gazette building on June 28th, 2018, an employee named Wendi Winters charged forward using a trash can and a recycling bin as a shield in a desperate attempt to hold off the shooter and save lives. Unfortunately, she was one of many to eventually lose her life that day. Regardless, she has been hailed as a hero for deterring the shooter for precious seconds, and as a result, saved many more lives. Nonetheless, the sad reality is that she and many others might still be here today had there been trained officers stationed in a secure guard building on the premises. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The question becomes what can be learned from the mistakes of the past in order to better address active shooter situations? While it is important to know what to do in an active shooter situation, the bottom line is that active shooter training is not enough. As such, the focus in active shooter situations must absolutely be shifted towards prevention through the increased use of security guard buildings in order to keep these kinds of tragedies from happening in the first place. The reality is that no matter how much active shooter training a workforce might have, this will not prevent a shooter from opening fire in the first place. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is precisely why an on-site guard building is a must when it comes to keeping workplaces adequately protected from the increased threat of active shooter situations, and guard booth manufacturers have risen to the challenge to produce security guard buildings best suited to allow trained officers to curtail active shooter situations before anybody gets hurt. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An expert on active attacker response and survival, points out a major problem during active shooter situations is that, even with active shooter training, members of the workforce are often immobilized due to the heightened tension and stress of the situation and find themselves unable to adequately respond. As we have learned from the Capital Gazette shooting, even when do they do, it is highly likely to be not enough to curtail a shooter. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is why an on-site guard building is the first line of defense in any workplace environment. Security guard buildings not only provide a safe setting to stop a shooter in their tracks should the situation arise, but an easily accessible point by which employees can report any suspicious activity so that the situation can be neutralized before it becomes deadly. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When it comes to active shooter situations, other guard booth manufacturers simply can&rsquo;t compete with the range of customizable security guard buildings offered by B.I.G. Enterprises. They can ensure that every workplace has the perfect guard building on-site to suit their unique needs and prevent tragedy before it happens.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Serving to protect a facility and the people and property inside, a prefab guard house offers tremendous value. With the need for enhanced security for businesses, military bases, airports, government buildings, a portable guard booth on-site has become commonplace. When considering buying a pre-manufactured booth, it is important to understand both pros and cons.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Pros&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;As mentioned, a portable guard booth is used as an enhanced safety measure. When placed on the outside of a facility, the individual manning the booth has far better control and knowledge of who enters and exits. In countless situations, a guard shack has deterred criminal activity. Being a prefabricated product, the booth is built in a factory and then shipped to the installing site, which dramatically reduces time to build a booth on-site..&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Prefabricated guard shacks can be ordered as standard or customized products. In either case, special upgrades can be made based on&amp;nbsp;the customer&rsquo;s requirements. Examples include blast-resistant and&amp;nbsp;bulletproofing features, air conditioning and heating, security lighting,&amp;nbsp;advanced technology, restrooms, and much more.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Because a prefabricated guard shack is constructed in a&amp;nbsp;factory as opposed to being built on-site, it is more&amp;nbsp;cost-effective.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;A portable guard shack can be&amp;nbsp;relocated&amp;nbsp;quickly and easily.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;From an environmental perspective, there is less&amp;nbsp;material waste with prefab shacks.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cons&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;If&amp;nbsp;a pre-manufactured booth&amp;nbsp;does not come from a reputable company, there is a risk of error. Even one&amp;nbsp;small mistake can lead to a significant problem at some point in the&amp;nbsp;future.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Some companies that manufacture prefab booths have&amp;nbsp;limited design options, meaning that no detail or personality is incorporated&amp;nbsp;into the finished product.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Clearly, there are far more advantages of purchasing a&amp;nbsp;prefabricated guard shack than there are disadvantages. With better security&amp;nbsp;being a top priority for everyone, the popularity of guard shacks has&amp;nbsp;skyrocketed. Typically, a guard shack is placed outside of a fenced-in area&amp;nbsp;where it serves to maintain control of traffic going into and out of a facility.&amp;nbsp;Although you can choose a kiosk booth where employees and outsiders check&amp;nbsp;themselves in and out, most prefer a booth that is manned by one or more&amp;nbsp;individuals.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At&amp;nbsp;B.I.G. Enterprises, we take security and protection seriously, which is evident&amp;nbsp;in all of our products.

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Protect People and Equipment from Wind Through Prefab Shelters&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As you drive through town, there is a good chance that you have seen&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;prefab shelters&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;along the way without realizing what they are or how they benefit people. Also referred to as factory-built and pre-engineered shelters or enclosures, these standing structures work perfectly to protect people and equipment from the harsh elements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Outstanding Protection from the Elements&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prefab shelters can be designed specifically for your needs based on where you live and the type of protection you require. This type of shelter helps keep people and equipment out of the rain, snow, wind, and hot sun. If preferred, you can have your new shelter enhanced with things like way-finding signage, tinted or frosted glass, unique roof treatments, paint colors, and more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to being customized to your exact specifications, once factory construction is complete, assembly requires no on-site labor. With a rugged design and construction of welded steel, a pre-engineered shelter is strong and durable. Once delivered to your location, usually a forklift is the only equipment needed to place it on top of a pre-poured concrete slab.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After deciding on a prefab shelter, you can choose a basic design or have something elaborate created for you. The manufacturer can add various components to make the shelter more comfortable, including heat, lighting, cooling, and more. Even unique architectural features that complement the surrounding area can be incorporated into the design.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A prefab shelter serves many purposes beyond protecting people and equipment. It can be installed in a lot with an automated parking machine. As a result, the tickets always come out dry. These shelters are also used by people who like taking smoke breaks. Today, smokers have limited options for taking outside breaks. With these shelters, they have a place to go that prevents smoke from drifting and offending nonsmokers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Prefab shelters&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;are commonly placed along bus lines, as well. This provides people with a safe and comfortable place to sit or stand while waiting for public transportation. These shelters are also placed near train stations, giving people an alternative area to wait for departure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When looking at different options for&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;prefab shelters&lt;/u&gt;, you want to work with a reputable manufacturer. A prime source is B.I.G. Enterprises, which has years of industry experience. When you are ready to have a shelter designed and constructed, this company will exceed your expectations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&rsquo;m looking to purchase a replacement booth for my facility.&amp;nbsp; My current booth has a diamond plate steel floor that was painted.&amp;nbsp; The paint on the floor wore off really fast, now my floor is completely rusted out, and the diamond plate pattern is really hard on the equipment in the booth, like our chairs. Does your diamond plate work better?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-orange&quot;&gt;Dear Mr. Ruff and Rusted,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I understand your concern.&amp;nbsp; Our booth proposal will include our standard floor, which is 11ga. steel plate, no diamond plate pattern.&amp;nbsp; The 11ga. steel is then covered with 1\8&rdquo; thick x 19&rdquo; square industrial rubber tiles with 4&rdquo; base cove.&amp;nbsp; The floor covering is sealed to the 11ga. and the standard tile color is neutral black. The floor is protected and the surface is easy to clean and work with.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;power lines and street lights at sunset&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/energy-industry-security.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From keeping the lights on and our cars running, to powering our stovetops, heating and air conditioning, coffee makers, nightlights, and &ndash;&ndash;&amp;nbsp;of course &ndash;&ndash;&amp;nbsp;charging our smartphones, the energy we use each and every day is easy to take for granted. But behind the scenes, hundreds of thousands of people work around the clock to ensure we have the energy we need to power our lives.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This work has become increasingly important in the 21st century, as we depend more than ever on electricity to keep us connected at home, at work, and everywhere in between. The energy industry has, in a sense, become the foundation upon which all other industries rest; without it, we&rsquo;d be in the dark, both figuratively and literally.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The critical role the energy industry plays in our lives is why it is also particularly vulnerable to external threats. That&rsquo;s why it is mandatory that energy industry professionals have reliable, state-of-the-art security solutions, personnel, and control booths to keep their facilities, people, and pipelines protected.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let&rsquo;s take a look at some of the specific threats to the energy sector, as well as the ways in which physical security measures help to counter those threats.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Threats to Power Plants &amp;amp; Energy Facilities&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The energy sector is comprised of both government agencies and private companies, with thousands of individual facilities spread across the nation. From power plants &ndash;&ndash;&amp;nbsp;including thermal, hydroelectric, solar, wind, and nuclear &ndash;&ndash; to power grid control centers, these facilities and the people who operate them keep the power on for the entire country.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, that makes these facilities vulnerable to external threats and sensitive to accidental mishaps. That is why a security control booth that addresses the needs of a 21st century energy facility is critical.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Nuclear Power Plant Security&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;nuclear reactors in a field&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/nuclear-power-plant-security.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1208px; height: 900px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While intelligent, modern security protocols are important for every energy sector facility, nuclear power plants are a unique case due to the highly sensitive atomic materials they use and the nuclear waste they produce.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security solutions &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;designed specifically for nuclear power plants&lt;/a&gt; must take into account the myriad of threats and hazards that a nuclear facility faces. From simple human error to terrorist attacks, a nuclear facility must have expertly trained personnel, state-of-the-art tools and technology, and the physical security measures in place to detect threats and neutralize them as quickly and safely as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security control booths built for nuclear power plants must be outfitted with bullet and blast resistant materials, including the walls, windows, doors, roof and in some cases, the floor. The material used to manufacture these control booths (known as BBREs) is material that can sustain impact from explosive devices and/or high-power gunfire and keep security personnel protected This type of protection allows the guard to respond to the threat. In addition, these security centers should feature storage space for weapons and ammunition and slide-open gun ports to return fire in the event of an attack.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Last but not least, secure data and communications, landline phones, and camera equipment are all critical in detecting, preventing, and stopping security or safety breaches.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;How Guard Booths Protect the Energy Industry&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security guard booths customized to suit the specific needs of energy facilities are about more than establishing a hub for your sophisticated monitoring technology. These control booths provide a central location for security personnel to operate and communicate with one another.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A security control booth projects a necessary sense of authority that can serve as a deterrent to standard threats, such as trespassing, vandalism, and robbery. Camera equipment and detection tools built into your security stations can lay the groundwork for tracking and recording everyone who enters and exits the facility, while your security team can provide the physical presence needed to conduct investigations, prevent and stop attacks, and report accidents as soon as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Communication networks can connect the central control hub of a power plant or power grid monitoring center with your security guard station to ensure that any security breach or safety hazard is immediately shared with both teams. This can dramatically improve response times and lower the risk of severe consequences from accidents or attacks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, investing in, implementing, and maintaining &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/threat&quot;&gt;high-level security&lt;/a&gt; is a core responsibility of energy facility owners and managers. Physical security measures provide your facility&rsquo;s employees peace of mind so they can get their work done with the knowledge that they are safe and protected; similarly, the public which consumes your energy deserves to know that your facility does not pose any serious risk to their livelihood.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-blue&quot;&gt;Dear Dave,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I ordered a booth a while back from one of your competitors and I need to replace it. The booth is roughly 110 square feet and they sold me the unit with a recreational vehicle (RV) style roof mounted air conditioner, and a 4000 watt wall mounted heater. I am located in Arizona and that air conditioner cannot handle our summer, or winter. Will your proposal to me include the same type of HVAC.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-orange&quot;&gt;Dear Mr. Fried in Phoenix,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I understand your situation, I see many specifications with RV style air conditioners, and simply scratch my head. We almost never provide RV style air conditioners, while they do work well in some cases, a 110 square foot booth in your climate, or virtually all US climates should have a commercial roof mounted HVAC, or split system. Our proposal will include a HVAC with at least 23,000 BTU heating and cooling, and we will make sure the booth is properly insulated, including dual pane insulating glass.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-blue&quot;&gt;Dear Dave,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I want my booth to either have a real stucco or brick fa&ccedil;ade on it. Can you provide that, or prep for it? Our last booth came with plywood panels and the stucco never looked right on the sides.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-orange&quot;&gt;Dear Mr. Surface Tension,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We do not provide our booths with factory-applied stucco, it is too fragile for shipping. We have provided prep for this on many booths. Our wall prep consists of expanded metal lath welded to the exterior wall, with J-metal closure trim pieces. Your on-site contractor can now simply come out and easily apply the stucco to the exterior, no need for him to add lath or the J-metal trim.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As for the brick, we can provide our booths with factory installed &ldquo;Thin Brick&rdquo;, which is real brick applied to a composite panel that we mechanically fasten to the booth walls and corners.&amp;nbsp; We then provide a 16ga. Galvanized steel sill cap with mitered corners painted to match the booth walls.&amp;nbsp; Or you can apply standard brick to the outside of our booth.&amp;nbsp; If you prefer finish this way, we will weld brick ties to the exterior at 16&rdquo; on center and provide a 4&rdquo; sill cap with mitered corners.&lt;/p&gt;

My attendant slides the door and\or window probably 100 times a day. I am constantly having to adjust and replace the rollers for these items. I need a new booth, do you have any other options.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-orange&quot;&gt;Dear Sir,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;About 15 years ago we decided to make a change, as our customers were complaining about the same issues in our booths. We now exclusively provide a commercial steel framed door, top hung by eight 2 1\4&rdquo; steel ball bearing rollers, in a commercial upper steel trace with lower stainless steel guide, stainless steel pull handle and commercial lock. Even better, All of our slide windows are also made by us, they are commercial steel framed with commercial roller track system, stainless steel sill, welded stainless steel pull handles and commercial lock. You can now slide your doors and windows 1000 times a day for years of maintenance free use.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;security-guard-equipment-list&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/person-technology-military-soldier-profession-security-875911-pxhere.com.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From public spaces to private properties, college campuses and military bases, a custom-built guard booth is a critical asset when it comes to security. Your booth gives your security personnel the physical space they need to conduct their operations while providing protection and comfort to help them perform at their best.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But your guard booth is not the only tool that they need. There are some essential security equipment and supplies that security teams need in a post-9/11, 21st-century environment. Let&rsquo;s run down a basic security equipment list to make sure your team is protected and prepared for the challenges of the job.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Flashlights &amp;amp; Spotlights&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While it may not be considered security equipment, light still tops the list of what is necessary to keep security professionals safe and secure. A reliable source of light is any security guard&rsquo;s best friend, especially for those working late hours or overnight shifts. These are the times when the &lsquo;things that go bump in the night&rsquo; can be very real and dangerous threats. It is important to keep durable, high-powered flashlights on hand in your security booth &ndash; including back-up batteries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But a flashlight worn on a belt does not need to be your security team&rsquo;s only source of light. A mounted spotlight on the exterior of your security booth can help guards identify people and other objects at night or during inclement weather. These lights, outfitted with powerful LED lighting, can also serve to blind potential attackers and give security teams a critical advantage in neutralizing a threat.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Communications Equipment&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All security personnel should carry a cell phone &ndash; but because a signal is not always guaranteed and battery life my run out, a cell phone should not be the sole piece of communications equipment that they have access to or even the primary one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Walkie-talkie radios are often more effective for communicating between officers in short-range environments and should be on the list of security equipment needed for your guard shack. You should always keep several walkie-talkies available and fully charged.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;security-guard-walkie-talkie&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/police-869216_1280.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some situations may call for including hard-wired landlines in your security guard booth to have a communication channel that is not dependant on battery power whatsoever. Similarly, internet and ethernet setups give security teams the ability to conduct research and gather any necessary information quickly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When designing your security guard booth, you&rsquo;ll want to ensure that it is pre-wired for easy installation upon delivery and that your security equipment and supplies feature state-of-the-art data and communications systems so that your security team can stay in contact with one another or call for backup.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Cameras&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your security equipment list should always include two types of cameras: a handheld digital camera for photographs and a mounted smart security camera. The digital camera gives your security officers the ability to take photographs of scenes in the moment, making them much easier to describe. This aides in writing up reports with more accuracy, and can also be helpful in the event that a team member is called into court to testify.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A mounted CCTV security camera is another piece to include on your security equipment checklist. This offers an additional layer of security for guards; potential criminal activity may be thwarted simply due to the presence of a camera that is recording the property. Similarly, guards can identify visitors (or trespassers) from the safety of the guard booth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;All-Weather Preparedness&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do not underestimate the importance of proper clothing when it comes to optimal security team performance. In colder climates, low temperatures can make patrols nearly impossible without the right apparel; in warm, dry climates, the temperature often drops dramatically overnight, which can catch security professionals off guard entirely (no pun intended). Make sure your &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;security booth is designed&lt;/a&gt; to accommodate for winter coats, rain ponchos, and heated vests.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Protection&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Maintaining an inventory of security equipment and supplies is important, but so is providing your security team with the protection they need when facing the most extreme threats. And if you&rsquo;re working in a particularly sensitive area, such as a military base, power plant, or secure government facility, an arsenal of weapons is a must to add to the list of security equipment you need.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A simple nightstick can be an effective deterrent when worn on an officer&rsquo;s belt. But in the event of an attack, you may need to keep firearms in your security booth, including ammunition, space for lockers, and slide-open ports for returning fire.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to weapons, you must take preventative action to protect your security team by ensuring that your booth includes blast and bullet resistant materials. From doors and windows to flooring and ceiling, &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity/blast&quot;&gt;bullet and blast resistant design features&lt;/a&gt; could be the difference between life and death.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;First Aid Kit&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;first-aid-kit&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/first-aid-908591_1280.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 853px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Last, but certainly not least, your security equipment list must include a robust first aid kit. This is important not only for the guards themselves, but for anyone who may come to the security station with a minor injury seeking assistance. In the event that someone is seriously injured, you can provide basic first aid while waiting for medical professionals to arrive.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A standard first aid kit for your security guard booth should, at the very least, include the following items:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;adhesive bandages of various sizes&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;disposable gloves&lt;/li&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Security Guard Booth &mdash; Enhancing University Campus Security&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While campus shootings may be relatively rare, they are a real threat that every campus needs to adequately prepare themselves for in order to avoid deadly consequences. &amp;nbsp;But this isn&rsquo;t the only reason that it is a must that university campuses have adequate security in place. In addition to being prepared for the worst-case scenario, campuses need to be ready to address the myriad security threats and non-deadly crimes that invariably occur on a daily basis in such a populous public space. College campuses are large areas, and this is why there needs to be a number of guard booths stationed throughout the grounds. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Security guard booths are the first line of defense in preventing campus crime. Campus shootings are a real possibility, and it is a big mistake for college planners to underestimate the impact of these kinds of events. They have happened before, and will happen again. As such, it is the collective responsibility of all campus administrators to prevent these deadly events before they happen through the installation of an adequate number of guard booths across campus through which police and security officers may professionally monitor campus activity. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a recent forum, campus security administrators weighed in on their views on the increased need for campus security. One east coast administrator, is optimistic about the future of campus security. He is quick to point out the positive impact that a profession-based approach executed through the stationing of numerous points across campus whereby officers occupy a security guard shack has had a positive impact on preventing mass shooting events before they happen. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A southern U.S. administrator agreed. &amp;nbsp;He argues that campuses could be doing more to install an adequate amount of security guard booths to prevent this kind of crime. From his point of view, university administrators are not installing enough guard booths to keep campuses safe and provide the capacity to effectively neutralize a shooting incident should it occur. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When these events happen, security guard booths provide not only ready access to the scene, but an easy way for students or educators to report any suspicious activity so it can be addressed on the spot. Even if it is not prevented before it happens, in the event that the worst-case scenario does arise and an active shooter situation breaks out, guard booths save precious minutes that would be wasted in waiting for emergency personnel to arrive on the scene and can save lives. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One administrator in the Midwest added that campuses need to be doing more to consider context and location. For example, a campus that is located in a densely urban setting or a sprawling rural area might need to install an extra security guard booth or two in order to be considered safe. He also points out the need for administrators to constantly be vigilant of ever-evolving larger social contexts in which these types of events tend to occur. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, active shooter situations are not the only reasons that every campus needs guard booths to be in place. There are many other crimes common on university campuses that will invariably tar a colleges&rsquo; reputation and discourage new admission. This is why it is the shared responsibility of all university administrators to ensure that a security guard shack is stationed at every major point access point and public area on their campuses. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-blue&quot;&gt;Dear Dave,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;My Architect specified your Ocean Park style Guard Booth, when the job was completed, I was surprised to see a booth from another manufacturer. The wall panels were specified to have a Architectural X pattern stamped into them. The booth I received had bars welded to the outside for the X, is that how you do it?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;bold-orange&quot;&gt;Dear Sir,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&rsquo;m sorry to hear this and thank you for specifying B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. To answer your question, No. We actually take that galvanized steel wall and use our Press Brake to stamp the X pattern into the wall panel itself, before it is welded to the frame. We constantly see manufacturers trying to copy our designs, which we are flattered by, but the end results are never the same.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>Security Guard Shacks: Important for Your Employees’ Safety</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Security Guard Shacks: Important for Your Employees&rsquo; Safety&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While not intended to scare people, the fact is that in today&rsquo;s society, there is a greater need to protect employees. Too many news stories prove that security guard shacks can prevent a host of tragedies. Whether a threat comes from a disgruntled ex-partner, ex-employee, or someone completely unrelated to the business, enhanced employee safety is a top priority. Thanks to new and innovative designs and features, security guard houses help deter and prevent crime.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To provide your employees with better protection, start by researching the best security guard shack manufacturers. Be sure to choose one that has years of experience and expertise in the field of security.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul type=&quot;disc&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Visibility&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Statistics show that the presence of a guard shack at a business location is usually enough to deter someone from carrying out a crime against an employee.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Access Control&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; A primary function of security guard houses and the trained professionals working inside is to control access to the company&rsquo;s property. Physical security is imperative for keeping employees safe, as well as property, equipment and machinery, sensitive documents, programs, and more. Access control deters or prevents acts of vandalism, theft, personal injury, and even terrorism. In today&rsquo;s climate, it is important to check and control people going onto and coming off of your company&rsquo;s property.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Piggybacking&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Control systems consisting of a gate that opens via a keycard or access code creates a risk of &ldquo;piggybacking.&rdquo; In other words, an additional vehicle can pass through the security checkpoint once the lead car gains access. To prevent piggybacking, a guard booth attendant only allows one vehicle at a time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Verification&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; A guard booth is a stopping point for foot and vehicle traffic. Whether coming or going, your trained personnel can get information about the driver, the vehicle, the purpose of the visit, and the location in the building where the individual plans to go. By going through this exercise, the guard or attendant can react quickly to anything that seems suspicious, eliminating a potential threat.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Psychological Security&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; A staffed guard house provides psychological security. If someone with bad intentions drives or walks up to a guard shack, there is a good chance that the individual will make an excuse to leave due to second-guessing the level of security throughout the entire building.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Imagine working as a security guard in a&amp;nbsp;guard shack&amp;nbsp;or&amp;nbsp;parking booth. Night after night, you&rsquo;re watching multiple screens without incident. However, this lack of stimulation can actually cause you to lose focus and potentially miss signs important &ldquo;red flags&rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a study by the Human Factors and Applied Cognition program at George Mason University, researchers tested subjects about vigilance fatigue to assess how and why brainpower depletes and how to regain it. The study indicated that vigilance fatigue happens when the brain becomes overwhelmed. Essentially, when engaging in a task, the brain moves back and forth between performing a diligent task and allowing the mind to wander to &ldquo;reset&rdquo;. This pattern produces positive results to sustaining attention.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to security, an eight-hour shift can pass without incident, but there is a distinct passivity that comes with monotonous tasks. Without additional stimuli, a guard sitting in a&amp;nbsp;security shack&amp;nbsp;has a lot of potential to miss an important incident.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are a variety of techniques that can help increase task effectiveness. One tactic is to implant false alarms, which creates a break in the lack of stimuli. Another possibility is implementing a reward system. According to the study, rewards increase dopamine levels, which make increase the ability to stay focused.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Interestingly, attitude plays a big role. Those who maintain a positive mental attitude tend to be more relaxed and more effective at performing a task.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Vigilance fatigue also reaches the world of cybersecurity. In a study conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), most computer users have negative feelings about security and privacy in relation to online behavior, leading to poor decision-making.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Participants reported being tired of having to constantly update passwords and perform system updates, along with other basic cybersecurity measures and don&rsquo;t see a reward for doing so. Other signs of security fatigue include impulsivity and making the easiest decisions, which are not necessarily the best decisions. To combat this, researchers offer several suggestions security companies can take to avoid security fatigue. One is to limit the number of security decisions and simplifying security decisions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Vigilance fatigue impacts security officers and laypersons. Taking measures to avoid these issues will help maintain high levels of security for guards who are placed inside the&amp;nbsp;guard shack or security booth.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Some Important Considerations Regarding Toll Booths&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In looking at different&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;toll booths&lt;/strong&gt;, there are a number of factors to consider. As the name indicates, a toll booth is an outside structure that drivers pass through to pay a toll for crossing a road or bridge.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Helpful Tips for Buying a Toll Booth&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In cases when a toll booth is physically manned, both the design and amenities are important. Whether an individual operates a booth for four or eight hours, having a comfortable and accommodating place to work is one consideration. In particular, if a booth is located a good distance from other facilities, a restroom is essential.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A toll booth can be designed to include air conditioning and heating, special floor mats that make standing easier and less stressful on the feet, shelving and cabinetry, and in certain situations, it can come close to being bulletproofed, but there exist different levels of bullet resistance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Another consideration is the design aesthetics. Oftentimes, a toll booth has a simple design, but it can be enhanced. If a booth is located within close proximity to your business, you might consider architectural elements that create a cohesive look. You can also choose complementary colors or color combinations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Working with a Reputable and Trusted Manufacturer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One company, B.I.G. Enterprises, is known for designing and developing some of the most unique yet functional booths available. As a result, you have multiple choices, including exterior material, insulated walls, special glass, and much more. Although cost is important, your decision comes down to two basic things: the comfort and safety of the booth operator and the booth&rsquo;s functionality.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Something else that you need to think about is whether you want the toll booth customized.&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Toll booths&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;can be outfitted with a wide variety of enhancements. As an example, your booth can have a warming system installed for the melting of snow and ice. Additional customized features include outside lighting, energy efficient and tinted windows, pull down or motorized window shades, and the list goes on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, our experts work with customers on the designs of&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;toll booths&lt;/u&gt;, ensuring they get exactly what they need and want.

&lt;p&gt;In a world where leaving our very homes can pose a risk to our safety, people find themselves increasingly on guard when in a public setting. Event planners and managers are faced with the need to increase security to minimize any risk to the attendees of their events. While the task seems daunting, this can be done in a multitude of ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;1) Guards&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We are an on-the-go society these days, and events are no exception. Many events, such as carnivals or music festivals, set up camp in a temporary location or are consistently moving from place to place. Either way, a portable guard shack can be an invaluable addition to an event venue. &amp;nbsp;Custom prefabricated mobile guard shacks offer several advantages. First, you get to specifically design the best option for you and your event; secondly, the shack comes with you when your event moves on to its next location.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Guards at the entrance to your location, whether temporary or permanent, can serve as a visual deterrent to would-be troublemakers. Guards can also observe attendees exhibiting suspicious behavior without distractions from the safety of a portable guard booth.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;2) Pre-Planning&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Professionals that are being trained in event management and planning are usually required to learn the skills of risk management. When it comes to risk management, it&rsquo;s critical to consider all the worst-case scenarios and be prepared to handle each one. Having a solid plan before any event takes place also gives event staff the opportunity to train for these scenarios, receive suggestions from security staff, and become familiar with the planned security strategies.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Planning not only gives staff the training needed to protect guests, but also insight into what staff can also do to protect themselves in the event of a security breach or crisis. For example, a portable guard shack can also become a shelter for event staff who are nearby should disaster strike.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;3) Custom Design of Security&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Event planners should think about many factors when implementing a plan that minimizes the risks of event attendees and staff. Are multiple guard shacks needed? Would a metal detector be an efficient addition to the security plan?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
A little pre-planning can save lives and prevent injuries should an unthinkable act of violence take place.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Taking the Guard Booth to a Brand New Level&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In today&rsquo;s battle against threats, an increasing number of companies and government agencies have turned to a guard booth. While some businesses have a staffed security station in conjunction with other methods of security others depend solely on a guard booth. In either case, it is imperative to choose a reputable manufacturing company, one with a history of developing quality solutions and backing products with a solid warranty.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Usually, a guard booth is used for perimeter security. Based on the exact design, security personnel have 360-degree visibility, access to top-line communications, and a locking security station. However, if you work with B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc., you can also choose a guard booth that is built with bomb and blast resistance, as well as bullet-resistant technology.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Special Applications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For guard houses, there are two primary options. The first is a staffed guard booth whereby an individual checks identification to allow a driver in or out of a facility. The second is a high-security guard booth, commonly used for government buildings, on military bases, at border stations, and more. The primary goal with this second type of station is to keep unwanted people out and threats at bay.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A high-security guard booth is broken down into different levels to include 1, 2, 3, and 4, with 4 offering the greatest level of resistance. To ensure a guard booth of this type performs as indicated, very specialized testing is performed. Once the booth passes, it is certified as having conformed to Underwriters Laboratories standard UL 752, along with others as needed. Currently, the type of guard booth situated around the perimeter of the White House is a level 4.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Along with a more standardized guard booth, B.I.G. Enterprises has the ability to offer customization. A prime example was in 2012 when the company was engaged by NASA to design and manufacture an extremely tough guard booth with bullet proof capability for the Stennis Space Center.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This guard booth offers unrivaled security while still being aesthetically attractive. As part of the design, the company used a combination of high-level ballistics resistant amenities with comfort features like industrial flooring, custom paint, high-output roof-mounted HVAC system, full restroom facility, and more. This guard booth also boasts state-of-the-art communications, alarm, and surveillance equipment.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Advantages of Control Booths&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are numerous advantages in choosing the right&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;control booths&lt;/strong&gt;. To ensure the product meets your expectations and requirements, it is important to purchase a booth from a reputable and trusted source. That way, you have confidence in the materials, workmanship, and overall performance of the booth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Advantages&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some of the primary advantages of control booths include the following:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prefabrication&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&ndash; Although you can have something built onsite, an even better option is a prefabricated booth. In addition to being more cost-efficient,&amp;nbsp;you can move the booth where ever needed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Structurally Sound&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; When purchasing from B.I.G. Enterprises, an industry leader, you know the booth is structurally sound. These booths have a heavy-duty welded steel construction.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Electrically Wired&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; When the booth arrives at your company, it is quickly assembled complete with all electrical wiring. This allows the assigned worker to take his or her post almost immediately. Being electrically wired, the booth accommodates all types of devices, including computers, lights, landline phones, and much more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Customizable Size&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Although B.I.G. booths typically range in size from 3 by 3 feet up to 12 by 24 feet, we can customize the booth to whatever size you need.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Amenities and Features&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; You have a wide range of choices as far as amenities and features. For example, we can add an HVAC system, special flooring, windows, doors, locking mechanisms, and insulation if needed. In fact, when choosing a B.I.G. product, your booth can be made to resist both bullets and blasts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Protection&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; The biggest advantage is that booths protect your business and employees. The booth sits at the exterior entrance of your company, becoming a checkpoint for foot, vehicle, and material traffic. Not only does it control what goes into and out of your business, the booth helps deter criminal and terrorist activity.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peace of Mind&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; As security threats increase, it is important to provide your workers with peace of mind. Your employees deserve to arrive at work knowing the facility is fully protected. With strategically placed&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;control booths&lt;/em&gt;, your employees will focus more on being productive than on concerns over safety.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To enjoy the many advantages of&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;control booths&lt;/u&gt;, it is imperative that you purchase from the right company. At B.I.G. Enterprises, we would love the opportunity to provide additional information and assist with your order.&lt;/p&gt;

Because B.I.G. booths can be moved as a single piece, they are classified as a company&rsquo;s &ldquo;tangible property&rdquo;. For &ldquo;tangible property&rdquo;, the purchase price can be depreciated over seven years (https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/tangible-property-final-regulations). Conventional construction, on the other hand, becomes a permanent addition to the building and is classified as &quot;real property&quot; with a depreciable span of time. This difference in depreciation can reduce project cost and improve the bottom line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

For example, a parking booth at a hospital will have less security risk than a guard booth at a prison complex. It&rsquo;s also important to factor in amenities to ensure your guard staff can perform their work and stay comfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Throughout the United States, temperatures vary greatly &ndash; from four changeable seasons in the northern part of the country to significant shifts in 24-temperates ranges in the deserts of the southwest. Therefore, in most regions in the country, security staff will need to use a guard booth&rsquo;s heating and air conditioning unit to stay reasonably cool or warm.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Air conditioning isn&rsquo;t just about lowering the temperature of a workspace; it also helps keep the air clean and clear by providing ventilation and removing airborne pollutants. Not only does proper ventilation help to keep your security employees healthy and alert, but a guard booth air conditioning system is also necessary to preserve the functionality of computer systems and other technical equipment staff may need to use. Those systems are essential for security, so you want to make sure they&rsquo;re functioning at peak capacity!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/data_center_blog_photo.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 850px; height: 213px;&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyone who is trained as a first responder of some kind, will tell you that seconds and minutes are precious and matter enormously in saving lives. If the worst should happen, there is an urgent need to quickly and immediately locate those who most need help. Not every building can be fitted as your data center's security center, and guard booth manufacturers know this. In today&rsquo;s world, the events and situations previously thought to be impossible or unlikely, have become one of the many things a responsible employer and guard booth manufacturer will have thought out and planned for.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Despite the widely held assumption that it will be the police that come to the rescue when there is a violent incident, the reality is that many emergency situations happen too quickly. Statistics show that most situations that ultimately require law enforcement intervention, for example active shooter situations, are over before police can arrive.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
As such, it is crucial to rescue and tactical operations that there be a point of contact on site when they arrive, so they can quickly get the most pertinent information and correctly assess the situation. Often times with so much of security linked to technology, it is easy to forget that a guarded modular guard house is often the nexus of most of this coordinated activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
While much of your data center's security relies on computers and programming, such as an alert notification system, controlling magnetic locks and keys, managing the emergency alert system, and enabling a panic alarm for the front-line staff who tend to be most at risk, there are security measures that cost pennies and rely on common sense initiatives.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Initiatives such as keeping an up to date printed company directory with photos, labeling every door so a trapped employee can quickly identify and provide their location within the data center, designating a failover location in the event of an evacuation, and putting together and maintaining a fire box with all the materials, information, and keys that police and first responders will need in the event of an emergency.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
The mobile guard shack must be set up in the most effective location as the first point of contact for all these initiatives. This is not to say that technology does not also play a key role in saving lives; in a situation where seconds matter and lives are on the line, being able to control access from a mobile guard shack and deploy guards to either free trapped people or block off access and secure an intruder is critically important to your data center's security.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Ensuring the security of your personnel and visitors requires a mix of common sense, and attention to detail. Saving lives requires a central coordination point to manage all these combined endeavors and make sure that every effort counts.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>The Importance of Guard Booths at Sports Complexes</td>
        <td>&lt;p&gt;How to Improve Stadium Security: The Importance of Guard Booths at Sports Complexes&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security management at sports complexes has gradually become more comprehensive and technologically advanced in the last three decades. Whether the athletic teams are professional or collegiate, providing high-quality sports event security has been a necessity for ensuring the safety of athletes, fans, and stadium staff.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/fortress&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Combination ticket office and guardhouse for a sports complex.&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-077-fortress.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the last thirty years, the sources and kinds of potential threats have changed and grown more sophisticated. When teams and sports complex owners improve security, they reduce potential damage to facilities, help protect people, and reduce legal and monetary liabilities that may come about due to security breaches.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Because of these threats, the security industry has developed innovative solutions to help security managers improve sports event security. The Institute of Building Sciences recommends the best way for sports complexes to guard against unauthorized access is to have a separate entrance, such as a guardhouse, be a controlled check-in point.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Guard Booths at Sports Complexes Can Provide Five Important Functions&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The modern-day guard booth can operate as a center of command for all facility and security operations. By placing a guard booth in a central location, security staff can access the resources they need to perform their roles. As a result, they are better able to ensure physical property security and the safety of athletes, families, fans, and team staff. Here are five important security functions guardhouses can help to perform.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;1. House Video Management Systems&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Guard booths at sports facilities can be equipped with video management systems allowing security staff to monitor all locations both inside and outside the complex.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;2. Offer Security Communication Systems&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Improving security means improving communication between guards and security staff stationed at various locations throughout a sports complex. The guardhouse can be a central point for managing remote communications.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;3. Manage Access Management&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sports event security requires knowing who should have access to various locations in the sports complex. Providing guardhouse staff with access control helps ensure that stadium security is accurately managed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;4. Visitor Management Systems&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Guardhouses provide a valuable role on game day, but they also are essential for approving and tracking visitors who come to the sports complex on other days. Whether the visitors are reporters, athletic trainers, business office staff, or vendors, improving stadium security by managing visitor activity means ensuring guests have the proper credential to enter the complex. An added benefit is that guardhouse staff can also provide directions and parking information, so visitors know where they need to go.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;5. Remotely Controlling Doors and Barriers&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to sports event security, crowd management is of the utmost importance. Technology installed at guardhouses can remotely control door access and barriers that prevent people or vehicles from areas where they do not belong.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/custom-booths&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;A large, custom-designed guard booth can be used for a sports complex.&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-035-custom_guard_booth.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;How to Improve Security at High School Sports Complexes&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While high school sports stadiums may not attract the number of visitors as professional or collegiate stadiums, keeping young athletes and their families safe during games is essential for schools. The following are ways in which a guardhouse can be effectively used in this setting:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;h3&gt;Centralized Security Cameras&lt;/h3&gt;
	Security cameras improve security efforts to reduce vandalism to property and equipment and provide monitoring during games and practices. Suppose a criminal act such as the theft of equipment occurs. In that case, security camera footage offers evidence of who is responsible and how the facility was breached.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;h3&gt;Facilitate Routine Maintenance&lt;/h3&gt;
	Guardhouse staff can help facilitate the routine maintenance of the sports complex and reduce risks and hazards.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;h3&gt;Ensure Visitor Safety&lt;/h3&gt;
	The guardhouse provides a centralized location for storing and displaying warning signs, distributing parking regulations, and providing general safety information to visiting athletes and game attendees.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
	&lt;h3&gt;Secure Athletic Equipment&lt;/h3&gt;
	Improved security also means protecting access to athletic equipment. Guardhouse staff can also make sure that all athletic equipment is securely stored safely and access regulated.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether athletic teams are professional, collegiate, or from a high school, providing professional-level security is now more critical than ever before. When it comes to the safety and security of athletes and their fans, you can&rsquo;t go wrong by installing a prefabricated guardhouse.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;The Many Uses of Equipment Enclosures&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Equipment enclosures are specially designed units used to store but also protect both equipment and machinery. Just as with other B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. products, these enclosures are made from high quality materials and manufactured to precise standards. In addition to buying standard enclosures, the company offers customized options.&lt;br /&gt;
Equipment enclosures also come in a wide range of sizes and depending on the type of equipment/machinery that will be stored, they can be enhanced with an array of high security features. For example, enclosures can be made both ballistic and blast resistant, if needed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Industries that Use Enclosures&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The list of industries that use equipment enclosures is quite extensive but below are a few examples:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Agriculture&lt;/strong&gt; &ndash; To protect sensitive irrigation controllers, these enclosures work exceptionally well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Petroleum&lt;/strong&gt; &ndash; Costco uses B.I.G. equipment shelters nation-wide to protect their gasoline pump equipment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Military&lt;/strong&gt; &ndash; Data communications equipment can be stored safely in B.I.G. equipment enclosures. Equipment for communications, weaponry, and surveillance can be stored safely in equipment enclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Data Centers&lt;/strong&gt; &ndash; As with military purposes, equipment enclosures made for data centers is usually high security. After all, data centers are comprised of high-dollar equipment used to ensure internet services stay up and running. In addition, some equipment holds a tremendous amount of proprietary information that must be carefully guarded while being stored.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;The Most Innovative Security Guard Booth Designs in the Country&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A security booth design that meets the needs of the 21st century requires smart engineering, the highest quality materials, custom features, and world-class construction. From college campuses to government facilities, private businesses and public squares, every location presents unique challenges and necessitates a different approach.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But some situations call for a truly innovative security solution that rises to those unique challenges. Below, we&rsquo;ll explore a few of our favorite security guard booths in the country.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Command Center&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-booths-control_center.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px; float: right;&quot; /&gt;The Control Center&amp;nbsp;security command center is a fortified station constructed for a highly sensitive government facility. Some of the features included in this completely customizable security booth design are high level ballistic resistant construction, a restroom, gun rack, advanced data and communications connectivity, and a surveillance closet. Prefabricated off-site, this unit also includes additional engineering that is intended to support roof overhang added on-site during installation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This design offers your security team the features they need to perform at their best while also being comfortable. It also maximizes the space to include numerous security features that help protect them against high-level threats. This design can be altered depending on the number of security personnel as well as the amenities you wish to include.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The New Beginnings Gatehouse&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/newsletters/washington-bell-architects-december-2016&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;New beginnings gate house&quot; height=&quot;450&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/mirror.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/new-prefab-guard-booth-gatehouse-mirrors-surroundings&quot;&gt;New Beginnings Gate House&lt;/a&gt; reflects the B.I.G. commitment to rising to the challenge. For this project, our team&rsquo;s assignment was to create a guard booth that truly blended in with the natural surroundings. In this case, those surroundings were trees in a historic part of Maryland, and the design had to be approved by the Historic Architectural Committee.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This guard booth sits at the entrance to the New Beginnings Youth Detention Center, so it was important that the security station help set a positive tone and harmonize with the surroundings. It was one of the biggest security booth design challenges we&rsquo;ve faced. Working with Washington D.C.&rsquo;s Bell Architects, our team was able to match the environment with a unique mirrored exterior paneling. This solution better reflects the center&rsquo;s mission to help young people get back on the right track.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Despite the mirrored exterior, the guard booth is built to last, with a galvanized steel floor, galvanized roof and fascia, and an acoustic drop ceiling and galvanized steel ceiling grid. Other features include a fully ADA compliant restroom, LED lighting, ductless split system HVAC, data and communications conduits, and the highest-rated polyurethane paint finish available.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Xtreme Facility Protector&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/extreme-perimeter-protection&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Bullet resistant security booth design&quot; height=&quot;411&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/october_2015_1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;504&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/extreme-perimeter-protection&quot;&gt;Xtreme Facility Protector&lt;/a&gt; booth model weight in at 45,000 pounds, built to withstand the highest-level security threats. This unit is designed to UFC 3-340-01, UFC 3-340-02, and MIL-A-12560H specifications, which means it has one of the highest possible levels of ballistic and blast-resistance available. In fact, this security booth design is so strong that it can withstand the impact of an F5 tornado!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Xtreme Facility Protector can provide military complexes, nuclear facilities, and other locations in which security cannot be compromised with a solution that gives security personnel the ultimate protection as well as the opportunity to strike back.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Xtreme Facility Protector can be built with ballistic window visors and sliding gun ports with quick-release locks, and state-of-the-art communications and surveillance equipment. Other features that went into this security booth design include ergonomically correct fixtures and fittings, energy-efficient LED lighting, and a split-system HVAC. Built to function in the most extreme climates, the exterior fortified by implementing a high-pressure wash method that is acid-etches the surface, then primed with two-part epoxy and finally finished with high-solids polyurethane paint.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Last but not least, these units are delivered in one piece and are pre-wired so they&rsquo;re ready to &lsquo;plug and play&rsquo; upon arrival.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Design Your Own Security Solution&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A modern security booth can give your site the protection it needs, offering a safe and comfortable shelter from which your security team can operate. While guard booths have been around for centuries, over time they have served a variety of purposes in addition to being a safe haven and control center for security personnel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let&rsquo;s take a look at the origins of security stations and how they have evolved over time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Dormitories &amp;amp; Storage Units&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Going all the way back to Ancient Rome, we know that some security stations were actually used as sleeping quarters and storage units. Called a &lt;em&gt;castrum&lt;/em&gt; in Latin, these were fortified camps that were built once the Roman army had marched for the day. In fact, regulations required that the army retires to a proper camp at the end of each day; therefore, the castrum was constructed and deconstructed in between each march. This ensured that soldiers were well-rested and that military supplies, such as food and weapons, were protected from raiders.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This tradition evolved in the 18th century, as sentries would eat and sleep in guardhouses in between their shifts. Instead of breaking down the camps and rebuilding them, these more permanent installations, such as those at the Fortress of Louisbourg in Nova Scotia, were well furnished and often accommodated dozens of security agents.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Jailhouses&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the past, guard houses were also designed with jails, or holding cells, as well. This was convenient for security professionals, who could round up suspected intruders or assailants and throw them behind bars immediately rather than wait for backup. Today, this security design is fairly uncommon. However, some college and professional sports venues &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.oregonlive.com/nfl/2018/08/raiders_new_las_vegas_stadium.html&quot;&gt;are rumored&lt;/a&gt; to have their jails &ndash; even their own courtrooms &ndash; built adjacent to their security stations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Checkpoints&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;security-checkpoint&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-checkpoint.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 1280px; height: 960px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Over time, guardhouses have evolved to serve as checkpoints, traffic control stations, and parking attendant booths. In applications ranging from residential and commercial to industrial and governmental, security checkpoints are critical to controlling the flow of vehicles and pedestrian traffic in order to keep sites secure and track who goes in and out.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a post 9/11 world, the role of the security station as a checkpoint has become increasingly important &ndash; from protecting airports and power plants to college campuses and private businesses. That&rsquo;s why &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;modern security booth design features&lt;/a&gt; are necessary to make even a simple checkpoint safe.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Many of you might already be aware of all the advantages a guard booth can provide when it comes to helping keep your building safe in a practical sense. There are also a myriad of psychological and even aesthetic factors that make a guard booth ideal for building security in ways that go beyond simple guard positioning. Today we&rsquo;ll be discussing all the ways a guard booth isn&rsquo;t just a good addition to the front of your building, but potentially an integral part of its overall design as well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Immediate Benefits&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It should come as no surprise that having a guard booth at the front of your place of business makes it much easier for security to monitor who comes and goes from your &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/blog/increasing-perimeter-protections-security-your-business-premises&quot;&gt;premises&lt;/a&gt;, including anyone that may have ill intentions.&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies&quot;&gt; A number of case studies prove&lt;/a&gt; that building security is improved tenfold by having an access control booth that visitors pass through before entering your office or warehouse. The effectiveness of entrance security is almost as dependent on building entrance design as it is on the competence and diligence of the guard themselves. We&rsquo;ll talk about why that&rsquo;s so in the next section.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Sending the Right Message&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;New Beginnings Reflective Guard Booth&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/laurel-maryland-1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 570px; margin: 0 auto; display: block;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The look of your guard booth has more to do with your building security than you might initially think. It&rsquo;s going to be one of the first things a visitor sees when they come to your building&mdash;whether they&rsquo;re the type of visitor who&rsquo;s supposed to be there or the type that isn&rsquo;t&mdash;and that means it&rsquo;s going to make a strong visual impression on whoever comes across it. It&rsquo;s important to choose exterior finishes, such as weather-resistant paneling or paint, that elevates the aesthetic of your building&rsquo;s security structure and how it&rsquo;s perceived by your staff and guests.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But as important as it is to deter potential crime, it&rsquo;s also vital that your front booth makes guests feel welcome as well. It&rsquo;s not as silly of an idea as it might seem: the&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/new-prefab-guard-booth-gatehouse-mirrors-surroundings&quot;&gt; New Beginnings Guard Booth&lt;/a&gt; holds up a literal mirror to its surroundings, making entrance security as visually pleasing as it is practical and efficient. Building security and entrance design are two concepts that can easily go hand in hand when it comes to that careful balance of inviting the guests you want to stay and repelling the intruders you want to keep away.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Choosing the Booth that&rsquo;s Right for You&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No two types of security booths are going to be identical, and it&rsquo;s vital to select the kind that will work best for you and your business. How does one go about making sure their building security is both effective at warding off trouble as well as inviting to valued guests and staff? Here are a few things to keep in mind.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location, Location, Location: &lt;/strong&gt;Where your workplace is located will have a lot to do with what kind of booth you should select. The aforementioned New Beginnings booth might work best for a tourist hotspot, but the imposing austerity of&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/shelter&quot;&gt; The Shelter&lt;/a&gt; will be a better fit in high-crime areas or for businesses that require higher security measures.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Examine the Elements: &lt;/strong&gt;Tying into the importance of location, it&rsquo;s also important to assess what the weather is like where your workplace is located. Disrepair doesn&rsquo;t speak well of building security, so you&rsquo;ll want something that can stand up to rainfall or environmental pressure if you work somewhere like a&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/park-court&quot;&gt; national park.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: &lt;/strong&gt;The size of your security team is also something to consider when selecting your entrance security booth of choice. The aforementioned Park Court will be excellent if you have a large team that patrols a wide area, but if your building entrance design doesn&rsquo;t need to accommodate very many people, something like&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/custom-leesburg-custom-attendant-booth&quot;&gt; our custom Leesburg Attendant&rsquo;s Booth&lt;/a&gt; might serve your needs just as well.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The look of your guard booth has more to do with your building security than you might initially think. It&rsquo;s going to be one of the first things a visitor sees when they come to your building&mdash;whether they&rsquo;re the type of visitor who&rsquo;s supposed to be there or the type that isn&rsquo;t&mdash;and that means it&rsquo;s going to make a strong visual impression on whoever comes across it. It&rsquo;s important to choose exterior finishes, such as weather-resistant paneling or paint, that elevates the aesthetic of your building&rsquo;s security structure and how it&rsquo;s perceived by your staff and guests.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;The Unseen Threat&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It can be tempting for anyone concerned about security to imagine that the near continuous development of new and increasingly sophisticated technology means there are fewer potential threats to contend with. Fortunately when dealing with an electronic perimeter, there are many steps and processes that can be programmed and automated. However there is still a need for a real live pair of work boots checking the fence line and walking the hallways. A truly secure site will seamlessly integrate physical and digital security to be prepared for the visible and invisible threat.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An observant set of eyes can not only spot a threat and take action to contain it; it can often make the difference between being a target and not. With a&amp;nbsp;guard booth&amp;nbsp;on site, there is both a visual and physical deterrent to any unauthorized access or activity. Anyone visiting the location has only to spot the&amp;nbsp;guard shack&amp;nbsp;to know that there is security personnel on site. In our current state of technological advancement, a&amp;nbsp;guard booth&amp;nbsp;might also house some of the technical security systems. In the case of an emergency, police officers, firefighters and ambulance personnel have a point of contact and coordination. Instead of spending crucial seconds and minutes scrambling to locate where their services are needed, they are quickly able to begin containing the situation at hand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On an everyday basis, having&amp;nbsp;guard shacks&amp;nbsp;also serves as a secure control point of entry and exit for employees, visitors, service staff, and deliveries. Adding an extra layer of verification and oversight can often help avoid unpleasant situations from developing in the first place. In terms of insurance costs, adding an extra layer of protection can often help you negotiate lower rates. Your site can also enjoy the peace of mind that comes from having your important assets protected by trained security personnel who will concern themselves with ensuring all appropriate security protocols are adhered to. They also act as a key link between the outside world and those monitoring the technical security systems.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A common refrain amongst companies looking to upgrade or enhance their existing security measures is that the need to maintain purpose-built structures to house their security personnel and technical systems. In fact there is always the option of retrofitting buildings though the costs and disruption to business associated make this a expensive and involved choice. While there is also always the option of assigning a room or office for security purposes, this somewhat lessens the visual impact intended. Another option is a&amp;nbsp;portable guard house, that can be installed and moved as many times as needed, which is especially convenient when the terrain of a location is constantly shifting, for example a construction site.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is clear that however a business chooses to handle the complex mix of security needs, there needs to be a synergy between the physical and digital security measures.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Various Industries That Use Control Booths&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An increasing number of industries rely on quality-built&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;control booths&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;as a means of protection and control. The people who operate these booths maintain control over the flow of traffic and materials going into and out of facilities. With security threats on the rise, these booths serve as a &ldquo;stop and check&rdquo; point so that only authorized people and materials are allowed in and out.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One benefit of prefabricated control booths is that they can be quickly assembled and placed virtually anywhere. These booths come in a wide range of sizes and are designed with various features and amenities. Any industry needing better control will benefit, whether a small company or large corporation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Top Industries&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Parking Services&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; For companies that offer dedicated parking space, perhaps a lot or underground facility, a control booth is commonly used by attendants who oversee daily activity.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Government Facilities&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; As part of a tight security system, it is common to find a booth at entrances at government locations, including military bases.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Manufacturing Companies&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; A control booth is perfect for manufacturing companies. It is especially beneficial for companies dealing with sensitive products, such as electronics, chemicals, and firearms.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Warehouses&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Warehouses need protection, particularly those storing more sensitive or expensive materials.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Automotive&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Even the automotive industry relies on booths for control and protection purposes.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NASA&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; As an independent agency of the executive branch of the U.S. government, NASA requires the highest level of security.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Businesses&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Business parks and campuses often choose structurally sound booths to ensure the safety of workers.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Agricultural Companies&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; To enhance consumer confidence, fight infiltration of terrorists and criminals, and get FDA approval, booths are critical to the agricultural industry.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From the examples of industries provided, it is evident that&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;control booths&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;play a vital role. Because each industry and company has special requirements, it is imperative that you purchase a booth from a reputable and reliable source. A perfect example is B.I.G. Enterprises. For the past 50 years, we have created custom booths according to exact specifications.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Using only the highest quality materials and workmanship, B.I.G.&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;control booths&lt;/u&gt;&amp;nbsp;are extremely well-made and designed to last. If required, we can add special features. For example, you can order a booth with an HVAC system, cabinets and drawers, restroom facility, insulation, and more. In fact, you can have your new booth made to be bullet and/or blast resistant. By choosing B.I.G., you know your company is well-protected.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Given that&amp;nbsp;ticket booths&amp;nbsp;are commonly used to introduce guests and visitors to your facility or event, it only makes sense that they should give a positive first impression. Installing a beautifully designed fee collection booth or ticket sales booth will speak volumes to your visitors about the quality of your facility and events.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we are committed to working closely with our customers to design and manufacture a ticket sales booth that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also completely functional for their site while delivering the desired level of security. Our&amp;nbsp;ticket booths&amp;nbsp;are constructed of only the highest-quality materials and feature the latest electrical systems for full flexibility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One of the great benefits of these kiosks is that they can also be expanded if the need should arise in the future. You can also elect to add practically any architectural improvements you would like prior to delivery, such as optional exterior treatments on the windows, exterior walls, and on the roof. We take great pride in giving our customers complete flexibility regarding the design of their ticket sales booth. Available functional features include speaker tubes, multiple or single selling positions, locking cash drawers, cashier windows, counters, shelves, safes, and deal trays.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Applications for Ticket Kiosks&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
These kiosks and ticket sales booths are ideal for use in a variety of settings, including entertainment venues, high school and university football stadiums, amusement parks, boat launches, and more. If the setting in which the booth will be placed has a particular architectural style, you can also opt to include many of the same design elements in your booth. For instance, you can include crown moldings, window framings, brick or stone, or any other design element you might desire. Do you need to allow service for a long walk-up line? If so, the windows can be arranged to accommodate multiple ticket stations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ticket sales booths can also be made portable, making them easy and fast to move. By including a forklift slot in the base or using skid mounting, you can quickly move a ticket booth to whatever location where you may need it. You never have to be worried about being locked into having your ticket kiosks situated in one location. Simply move your ticket sales booth to whatever location where it is needed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quality Construction Leads to Solid Value&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The high-quality construction of these booths ensures they are capable of withstanding the elements and will provide many years of long-lasting use. Since these booths are all prefabricated, they can be shipped fully assembled and ready to put to immediate use. No worries over wasting time and financial resources in building a booth from scratch.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Prefab saves you money.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Making a great first impression to your venue or facility is critical when welcoming visitors or guests. Investing in high-quality&amp;nbsp;ticket booths&amp;nbsp;is a wonderful way to do this by making a solid investment in your organization&rsquo;s image and brand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Top 5 Purposes of a Guard House for Businesses&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No matter the type of business you operate, the purpose of a guard house for your business should be to guarantee that it is a safe and secure place for people to work. This is paramount to a business&rsquo;s success. Of course, if you&rsquo;re responsible for overseeing the security of a business, you likely recognize the challenges associated with ensuring that your employees, clients, customers, and guests feel safe. After all, there are costs associated, logistical questions that need answering, and design elements that must be addressed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Implementing a serious security program for your business should be seen as an investment rather than an expense, but along with that mindset comes an expected return. The good news is that investing in a high-quality guard house can serve several purposes, each of which is an additional benefit for your business. Let&rsquo;s take a look at some of the ways your business can utilize high-security booths.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1. Optimize Performance&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The primary benefit of your security booth is the opportunity it provides your security personnel to perform at their best. One purpose of the guard house is to limit the challenges security team members face. Often they work long hours, either standing or on the go, and the nature of the job can be stressful. This type of guard shack offers them a comfortable operating station that is equipped with what they need to keep your business protected and help them feel safe.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;By investing in a high-security booth that includes &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;data and communication, bullet and blast-resistant materials, even HVAC systems and bathrooms&lt;/a&gt;, you&rsquo;re giving your personnel the tools they need to get the job done right.&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/new-security-booth-graces-las-vegas-panorama-complex&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Security guard shack business&quot; height=&quot;324&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/case-studies/feb2012.jpg&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; width=&quot;250&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Attract Top Talent&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A less obvious purpose of your guard shack is the role it can serve as a recruiting tool. In addition to providing your existing security team with the resources they need to perform at their best, you will also be demonstrating to other security professionals that you care about your security team.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This will encourage the best of the best to apply for positions with your company and thus keep a roster of top talent on location to protect your business.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3. Mount a Defensive Strategy&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A high-security booth fortified with &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;bullet and blast-resistant materials&lt;/a&gt; and features can serve as your security team&rsquo;s defensive station. With slide-open gun ports and blinding external lamps, your security team can mount a counter-offense from the safety and protection of your BBRE guard house.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While you never hope to have to use these features, including them in your guard shack design is critical if you&rsquo;re working in a location vulnerable to high-level threats.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;4. Collect Additional Revenue&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Another purpose of your guard house can be revenue collection. For example, if your parking lot or deck charges for using its spaces, your security guard house can double as a turnstile where tickets and payments are collected. Without a proper station from which to collect these fees, you could potentially lose hundreds of thousands of dollars annually; an investment in a quality station at these checkpoints could pay for itself in a short amount of time!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;5. Send a Clear Message&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/first-american&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Guard shack corporate facility&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-011-first-american.png?itok=wNCpf0Oq&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One more benefit of a security booth for your business is the clear signal it sends to your employees and your clients that their safety is one of your top priorities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For many job seekers, a purpose of a guard house is to let potential hires know that their employer cares about security &mdash; whether it&rsquo;s on your corporate campus or in your parking deck &mdash; which can increase the likelihood that they will stay with your company.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As for clients, prospects, and guests, a security presence is an indication of a professional organization. In addition, when clients feel safe and comfortable at your business, they are more likely to retain your services.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Top Industries &amp;amp; Businesses That Need Security Guard Booths&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Investing in a high-quality, on-site security booth for your business ensures that your employees, clients, and guests are safe. A security guard booth also enables your security personnel to perform at their best, providing the resources they need to monitor your facility, control who enters and exits the premises, and stay protected themselves.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From military bases to distribution warehouses, there are some industries and businesses that need security guard booths more than others. Below, we&rsquo;ll outline a few of the industries that can truly benefit from an on-site security booth solution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1. Energy&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We often take for granted the fact that when we flip a switch, the lights go on. But the energy we consume in a thousand different ways each and every day is generated thanks to the hard work of thousands of employees in facilities spread throughout the country, from hydroelectric stations to coal-fired power plants. Nuclear power plants, in particular, are high-risk targets, as terrorist organizations may seek to cause catastrophic damage by accessing one of these facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These businesses need security guard booths that feature advanced &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;data and communication capabilities&lt;/a&gt; to properly monitor and defend these locations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;2. Government &amp;amp; Military&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/bullet-resistant-entrance-controller&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;military base security&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-114-entrance-controller.png?itok=zgEv-MXu&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A reality of the post-9/11 environment is the threat of attack on government and military facilities around the world. From government buildings to military bases, it is critical that the security solutions implemented at these locations be as strong and powerful as the soldiers themselves. After all, these checkpoints are often the first line of defense in the event of an attack.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security guard booths outfitted with the most advanced &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;bullet and blast-resistant materials&lt;/a&gt; are necessary to keep security teams working in these environments safe from external threats. From bullet-resistant glass and steel-reinforced walls and flooring to slide-open gun ports and mounted LED blinders, there are security booth designs and features that not only keep personnel safe but allow them to mount a counter-offensive if necessary.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;3. Education&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For college campuses and universities, as well as many high schools and grade schools, there is nothing more important than the safety and security of students and faculty. While preventing acts of violence like school shootings are always a top priority, these are not the only threats that administrators must consider: sexual assaults, muggings, and disorderly conduct all contribute to an environment in which students and educators alike feel unsafe, and that can have long term consequences for any institution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A proper security station provides the resources campus security professionals need to operate, while also providing a safe haven for students and teachers who may feel threatened or need to report an incident. By matching the exterior of these campus security booths to the natural surroundings of the campus, you can both project a sense of security and authority without creating a feeling of oppression or alarm.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;4. Distribution &amp;amp; Logistics&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/custom-booths&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;custom guard booth&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-035-custom_guard_booth_0.png?itok=5rfMInS5&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the distribution industry, fulfillment centers have continued to grow in size and scale, with the total value of the assets being stored in any given warehouse reaching record levels. Warehouse employees need to feel safe in their jobs in order to maximize their output. But in addition to the concerns over employee safety, any disruption to the supply chain operations at these facilities could lead to significant delays and loss of revenue.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That&rsquo;s why distribution warehouses, especially those for large carrier services like Amazon and UPS have become businesses that need security guard booths more than ever before.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;5. Cannabis&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As the legal cannabis market continues to expand, the risk of serious security breaches has become quite real. Because cannabis is not legal in all 50 states, a black market for these products still exists &ndash; and that means cannabis producers may vulnerable to thieves, both amateur and professional. A custom security booth solution can keep the facilities that grow, harvest, produce, and distribute cannabis products protected and offer these pioneering business owners valuable peace of mind.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Consider B.I.G. for Your Business&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we specialize in design fully customized prefabricated security booths that meet the unique needs of your industry or business. Whether your mission is to keep your college campus safe or to transform the entrance of a nuclear power plant into an impenetrable fortress, we go above and beyond to satisfy any business that needs a security guard booth.&lt;/p&gt;

What a booth can be is&hellip; anything! We&rsquo;re here to help you learn about the basics of guard booths with B.I.G. Enterprises.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Basics:&amp;nbsp;What a Guard Shack Is&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A guard shack or guard booth is any kind of enclosure in which security personnel can monitor the comings and goings of a given space. This sounds pretty simple, but guard booths come in all shapes and sizes, and not all of them may present themselves as such at first glance. Many&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-105-custom-ticket.png&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/images/gallery/security-booths-105-custom-ticket.png&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;ticket booths&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that you come across at theme parks and other entertainment venues may very well be functioning as security hubs as well.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;What Goes into a Prefabricated Guard Shack?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Bullet resistant construction is just one feature of high-security guard shack features B.I.G. can build.&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/bullet-resistant-entrance-controller.png&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin: 10px; width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;Your own personal guard shack meaning can change a lot based on your business&rsquo;s specific needs. Every aspect of your structure can be customized to&amp;nbsp;&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options&quot;&gt;your specifications&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and to enhance the entrance or other touchpoints at your facility. When considering the outcome of asking what is a guard shack that will be right for you, think about what your own values as a proprietor are and go from there. If your business requires bullet resistance, we offer bullet-proof and&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;blast resistant&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;construction. If you need an elegant booth for your valet staff, we have options for streamlined, contemporary designs to blend perfectly with the architectural surroundings, as well. From offering designs with built-in restrooms and HVAC to ensure maximum comfort for your workers, to determining if you need a portable or a stationary design, we&rsquo;ve got you covered.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Considering the Purpose of Your Guard Structure&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While we&rsquo;re primary in the business of designing prefabricated guard shacks, what we offer for other sectors is vast. The principles of the guard booth can also extend to structures that may not require a controlling human presence to function, like our&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/pay-foot-enclosure&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/pay-foot-parking-ticket-booth-enclosure&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;pay on foot enclosure&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that protects these convenient machines from vandalism and robbery. As we discussed earlier, a guard shack can include many variables and variants, such as the ticket booths and many transit offices. If you&rsquo;ve ever&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/dome-roof-transit-shelter&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths/dome-roof-transit-shelter&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;waited for the bus underneath a booth&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that protected you from the elements, you&rsquo;ve come into direct contact with something that operates similarly but designed for an entirely different purpose than a guard booth that helps secure a warehouse.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Putting it All Together&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you take all of this information into account and arrive at the true guard shack meaning behind it all, you&rsquo;ll understand why these kinds of booths and locations are such an important part of modern everyday life. A guard shack is what allows the individuals who protect you and your property to keep a watchful eye out for anyone or anything that might wish to harm either one. And we hope you see that if you manage a business or property, it&rsquo;s crucial to realize that you can&rsquo;t afford&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;not&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;to have one.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Unique Attributes of an Attendant Booth&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While there are major differences between an attendant booth and bullet-resistant guard house, there are also similarities. Both of these structures are designed to boost efficiency of work performed. Unlike guard stations, an attendant booth can be used as a place where people can get some type of assistance. It is also a place where attendants can keep an eye on the public.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As imagined, there are hundreds upon hundreds of different applications for an attendant booth. For example, this type of station is used along turnpikes where city or state personnel collect toll for vehicles. In other words, for this scenario, the booth serves as a stopping point for drivers that pay a required toll for using the turnpike.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An attendant booth is used by many different companies of all industries and sizes. While functionality is important, so are aesthetics. In many instances, these booths are extensions of the business so they need to have the right look. A respected company named B.I.G. Enterprises has been able to refine both functionality and aesthetics of attendant booths, making them a leader in the industry.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;B.I.G. Enterprises, Inc. has been designing and building prefabricated stations of different types for more than 50 years. The company fully understands what customers want and thereby uses the right balance of materials and design elements to produce superior products. A prime example is the dispatch booth installed at the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta, Georgia.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The company developed an attendant booth that had a sleek design, innovative technology, and user-friendly functionality. B.I.G. fabricated a booth from Type 304 stainless steel, complete with customized wall finish. The framed slide windows were also made from quality stainless steel and featured a roller system.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This attendant booth is used as a secure taxi dispatch station. In addition to the booth being complementary to the airport surroundings, it is secure. Along with an exceptional exterior, this attendant booth has an amazing interior that includes a stainless steel plate floor covered with industrial rubber tiles, ductless split system HVAC, acoustical tile drop ceiling, shelving and cabinetry, and a complete electrical package as well as communication and data lines.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Regardless of what your need for an attendant booth is. B.I.G. sets the bar high. The company manufactures products that are rugged, innovative, and fully customizable.&lt;/p&gt;

Enterprises, Inc. by using the search term &ldquo;bullet proof.&rdquo; Although this company offers a wide range of guard stations designed specifically against high-level attacks, no one on the planet can technically manufacture a booth that is bullet proof per se. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Based on design, a booth of this type is made specifically to provide optimal protection. For this reason, it is common for government facilities to seek security booths with bullet proof or bullet-resistant capabilities manufactured by a top-rated company, such as B.I.G. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

As a result, one of the company&rsquo;s most efficient security stations was custom designed. Known as the Control Center, this guard booth offers bullet-resistant strength and superior fit and finish. In addition, this guard booth is designed according to strict blast-and bullet-resistant requirements that are seen by some as &ldquo;bullet proof&rdquo; to specific levels. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Based on the design of the booths manufactured by B.I.G., security personnel gain a huge physical advantage over possible threats while being able to work in a comfortable environment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Taking every possible factor into consideration, a unique and innovative security station that is extremely tough was devised. However, as it is prefabricated, this guard booth is affordable and easy to set up after reaching its destination. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h2&gt;Enhance your security with an&amp;nbsp;elevated guard shack&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Investing in an elevated guard shack is a smart way to enhance your business's safety and security operations. Whether you're monitoring a distribution center, overseeing a sports complex or outdoor concert venue, or responsible for a high-security facility such as a data center, prison, pharmaceutical laboratory, or movie production studio, an elevated office for security staff is essential. A tall booth that places guard staff several feet above ground level provides increased visibility and is prominently displayed against the landscape. Not only does the elevated guard shack offer a broader vantage point &ndash; but it also sends a signal to everyone that surveillance is taken seriously, and any illegal or unauthorized actions will be noticed and perpetrators apprehended.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At B.I.G. Enterprises, we're the leading experts on creating perimeter security and guardhouse architecture. Since 1963, we've built customized security booths and elevated offices for clients around the United States. Custom-designed tall booths are one of our specialties, and this overview is designed to help you see the many uses elevated clerk and security booths can play.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Large parking lots for sports stadiums, airports, office complexes, and shopping malls often require a security presence to ensure the safety of vehicles parked in the lot and employees and customers traveling to and from them. A custom-designed elevated office provides room for security staff and sends a welcoming message to any person who may need assistance or information.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;A bullet resistant guard booth and bus shelter&quot; src=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/sites/default/files/styles/gallery_page_image/public/images/gallery/security-booths-091-gate-controller.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 294px; height: 320px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Businesses that offer private, gate-controlled parking are typical in high-density urban areas, exclusive condominium or resort complexes, or industries requiring limited or regulated access. A tall booth positioned at an entry point helps monitor access, direct visitors to the appropriate place, and collect any required information. This additional security layer benefits employees, visitors, or residents as it sends a clear message that safety is taken seriously.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Using Control Booths in the Recycling Industry&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Typically,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;control booths&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;are designed as a type of checkpoint for foot, vehicle, and material traffic going into and out of facilities. This type of booth provides the attendant with a clear vantage point and more control. Often, these booths are used by government agencies, manufacturing plants, chemical production facilities, and so on. However, on occasion, a special request is made for a nontraditional industry.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A perfect example is that some recycling companies are now using control booths to help with protection and overall operating costs. After all, having a booth positioned on the exterior of the business that is fully equipped with the necessary amenities and features helps cut down on labor costs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today, the recycling industry is huge. As more people become concerned with how trash pollutes the planet, individuals and businesses are doing their part to clean things up. As a result, recycling plants around the country are busier than ever. On a daily basis, hundreds of vehicles enter and exit this type of facility. Because of that, there is a growing need for more innovative technology and operating efficiencies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One concern is theft. Many recycling plants handle a variety of materials that, if stolen, could be sold. For instance, scrap metal has become a target for criminals. In fact, some criminals go as far as cutting electrical systems and air conditioning units to retrieve metal that can be sold for cash. To prevent this material and others from being stolen and to provide employees and customers with protection, booths have become an essential part of the overall security system.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, there is another reason that recycling plants are choosing&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;control booths&lt;/em&gt;. Because these structures can be designed with restroom facilities, air conditioning, heat, and so on, they provide attendants with a safe yet comfortable place to conduct business. Depending on the size of the shelter and on how the plant operates, these booths can also provide waiting drivers and perhaps visitors with a place to rest.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For recycling plants and other industries,&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;control booths&lt;/u&gt;&amp;nbsp;have a direct impact on operations and revenue. This makes them a huge asset to any company. If you run a recycling plant and are having trouble finding a booth to accommodate your business, we would be happy to customize something that specifically meets your needs.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Are the Differences Between Traditional and Modern Bus Shelters?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you have been around for a while, you know just how much&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;bus shelters&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;have changed over the years. In fact, when comparing traditional and modern shelters, the contrast is incredible. For a long time, people had no place to go to get out of the harsh elements when waiting for public transportation. Eventually, poorly designed shelters were provided, offering nothing more than a metal roof and standing room. Although an improvement, they are nothing like the shelters available today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Comparisons&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Some people view modern bus shelters as nothing more than updated versions of traditional shelters. In reality, the design goes much further. In designing modern-day shelters, manufacturers had to face several challenges.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For instance, regardless of the location, weather can change quickly. An individual might reach the shelter while the sun is shining only to be caught in a major downpour. On the other hand, perhaps the weather was relatively warm but, with a fast-approaching storm, the temperature dropped dramatically. In any event, the types of shelters made today can better accommodate waiting customers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks to industrial and technological advances, there are some major differences in how modern-day shelters are constructed. For instance, manufacturers now have a much broader choice of materials, including lightweight zinc alloy and heavy-duty stainless steel. In most cases, the exact material used depends on the climate where the shelter resides.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is common to find modern&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;bus shelters&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;with some type of wall, whether glass, Plexiglas, or metal. This helps block wind, rain, blowing snow, and even harsh sunlight. In place of standard flat roofs commonly found on traditional shelters, modern shelters feature uniquely designed roofs that provide adequate protection while allowing rain and snow to slide off instead of accumulate.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Two of the biggest changes seen in modern&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;bus shelters&lt;/u&gt;&amp;nbsp;are aesthetics that complement the surrounding area and enhanced safety. As far as aesthetics, you can have virtually any design. Once color and unique features are applied, the shelter has a customized look. This gives people a more enjoyable place to wait for public transportation. Since some people wait for buses at night, shelters boast comfortable seating and excellent lighting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you are interested in a newly designed shelter, B.I.G. Enterprises is the most trusted source. With years of industry experience and unrivaled expertise, you will be satisfied with the finished structure. For more information, please contact us today.&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>&lt;h1 class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;Conducting&amp;nbsp;a Physical Security Risk Assessment&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
for a Distribution Center&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Distribution center warehouse with forklift&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/distribution-center.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Many distribution center owners are less than aware of all the security risks their organization faces and can be unfortunately surprised when a security breach happens. With planning, it&rsquo;s easier to avoid this situation. Luckily, a physical security assessment is do-able and should be part of your distribution center security strategy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are two types of physical security assessments, individual and third-party. If you are a small operation, you can run a basic physical security assessment that can involve:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Checking security measures like CCTV and locks are working.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Ensuring system software is up to date.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Checking the security of the facility&rsquo;s access points.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Assessing the need for additional measures, such as fencing or security guards.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The third-party physical security assessment involves a contractor sending a security expert to the distribution center to assess the security risks it faces. The assessor will look at several determining factors, such as geographical location, current security protocol, security infrastructure, and the crime levels in the local area.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Third-party contractors will often have resources at their disposal that your business does not. For example, physical security assessors will speak to smaller police departments to discuss response times when a crime occurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Penetration testing is a method that allows physical security assessment experts to see vulnerabilities in a company&rsquo;s security net. These tests could involve running hacking tests on systems or actively looking for ways criminals could get access into your distribution center.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reinforce Entry Points&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Steel security doors are mandatory and can help make it significantly harder for would-be criminals to enter your site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Secure Vehicle Access Points&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Goods drop off locations and loading bays are easy targets for theft, especially opportunistic thieves. A strong security setup, including CCTV and limiting access can help better protect these vulnerable areas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Physical security risk assessments are usually bespoke depending on your distribution center security requirements. However, there are some universal tasks that will always be a part of the assessment:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review of on-site security&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Risk identification&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Threat probability assessment&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Local crime analysis&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review of security compliance methods&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review of electronic security&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review of manned security&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Review of architectural security&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Weakness identification for current security program&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Software and system reviews&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Distribution Center Security&amp;nbsp;is Important&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you develop a warehouse security checklist and know how to conduct a physical security assessment, your distribution center will be ready to prevent any crimes befalling it. Robust security is often ignored by warehouse operators, especially those of a small business. However, a strong distribution center security framework is a sound investment that will protect a warehouse over the long term. Get in touch with our team at B.I.G.

&lt;p&gt;Distribution centers are often in the crosshairs of those who view them as a soft target for theft, burglary, and vandalization. For organizations that operate warehouses and distribution centers, this is a major problem. Important merchandise and stock are at risk, which makes distribution center security vital to your operations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An unfortunate reality is your distribution center is often more at risk from internal theft than it is external burglary. Company employees, insiders, and contractors have access to your warehouse, and some may see an opportunity for crime. That does not mean you should be paranoid of every employee or guest, but it highlights how valuable an efficient distribution center security setup can help.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When developing a distribution center security strategy, creating a warehouse security checklist and knowing how to conduct a physical security risk assessment are both important.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Compiling a&amp;nbsp;Warehouse Security Checklist&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When working on a distribution center security plan, it&rsquo;s impossible to cover every base. No single measure will ensure you&rsquo;re safe from theft. However, by making some good decisions, you can cover as many holes in your security as possible and minimize the risk of loss.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Below is a warehouse security checklist that can provide a security safety net over your distribution center.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;General Security Measures&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CCTV&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Should never be your only security measure but remains important.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Robust Locks&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Needless to say, you need to ensure doors and other entry points can be securely locked.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lighting&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; A well-illuminated building exterior can sometimes be enough to put off thieves.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Limit Access&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; It&rsquo;s best to restrict access to your warehouse and separate visitors from staff, especially on the distribution side.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a data-mce-href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot; href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/security-booths&quot;&gt;Well-designed security booths&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;help control access 24/7 while providing comfort for your security staff.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stock and Inventory &ndash;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;While the overall security of your warehouse is important, the focus should be on protecting your stock and inventory. Security guards that patrol the distribution center and security cages are two ways to help protect your assets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Protect and Guard Your Building, Employees, and Customers&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-booths-1.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 945px; height: 208px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since we have been in the security business for over 60 years, we at &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/&quot;&gt;B.I.G.&lt;/a&gt; are glad to offer our clients comprehensive information to find the perfect structure to meet their security needs. With that in mind, we would like to share the importance of the guardhouse in the modern-day business environment and the role security shelters have played in shaping employee and customer safety in the 21st century.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When it comes to offering protection, a security booth is more necessary now than at any other time in history. Also referred to as guard booths, security booths, watch house, guard shack, control booth, and prefabricated &ndash; or &quot;prefab&quot; &ndash; guard shelter, this type of building is used for various applications.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Modern-Day Guard Building&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although a guardhouse serves much the same purpose today as it did centuries ago, design and functionality are dramatically different. Because of the type and degree of threats that businesses, housing complexes, correctional facilities, government buildings, airports, and other facilities must be prepared for, a modern-day security booth must not only be operated by highly trained and skilled security personnel but also outfitted with state-of-the-art security technology.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Typically, a security booth will be located at the facility entrance and exit. It serves as a checkpoint to monitor and maintain control of those entering and leaving the area. When a guard building is used in small to medium-sized facilities, it often can provide all the necessary security services and reduce the amount of office space needed for security personnel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For military and law enforcement facilities, a guardhouse is also used as a central hub for communications for all incoming and exiting visitors and personnel. In these locations, the security booth is continuously staffed, ensuring the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/highsecurity&quot;&gt;highest security level&lt;/a&gt; possible for people living or working at the facility.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Built for Todays Security Needs&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtecenter&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;/sites/default/files/images/security-booths-2.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 690px; height: 210px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A high-quality security booth should always be manufactured from heavy-duty welded and galvanized steel. It is also essential that the structure be well-insulated against both light and heat and provide clear 360-degree visibility. If required, the structure may also be manufactured using bullet-resistant materials.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to the guardhouse being used as a security point, it is vital to offer comfortable amenities for the security guards working it. We encourage you to look through our &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/design-options/&quot;&gt;design options&lt;/a&gt; and read the client &lt;a href=&quot;https://bigbooth.com/case-studies/&quot;&gt;case studies&lt;/a&gt; on our website to learn more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Choose a Trusted Manufacturer&lt;/h3&gt;

Enterprises, we ship our prefabricated and custom-built guard shelters throughout North America.

        <td>Why Is a Prefabricated Guard House Crucial for a Manufacturing Unit?</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;Why Prefabricated Guard Houses Are Crucial for a Manufacturing Unit&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although some people automatically equate a prefabricated guard house to an inexpensive and cheaply made structure, this is not at all the case. In fact, prefab guard booths from a leading manufacturer are strong, durable, and long lasting. The only difference between a modular guard house and one built on-site is that the prefabricated structure is constructed in a factory and then delivered to the customer&rsquo;s location. Thanks to top prefabricated guard house manufacturers, a host of industries have a reliable way to protect their business and employees.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For manufacturing companies, prefab guard booths offer an enhanced level of protection, plus more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul type=&quot;disc&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Better Monitoring and Control&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; By placing a modular guard house away from the business, your trained personnel can monitor and control the comings and goings of both foot and vehicle traffic. When properly staffed, various criminal activities are deterred, including theft and threat of physical harm or damage.&lt;br /&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Less Waste&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&ndash; One reason why so many manufacturers are turning to modular guard shacks is that this solution is a quick and economical way to use otherwise wasted square footage.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Less Mess and Downtime&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Because the guard house is built offsite in a factory and delivered ready for assembly, there is less mess and downtime on the company&rsquo;s property compared to a more conventional construction method. Once the guard shack is in place, you have a working structure ready for use. As part of the design, you can choose from a host of add-on features that create an employee-friendly environment while bolstering security.&lt;br /&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Versatility&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Due to the construction of the best prefabricated guard houses, assembly and disassembly are quick and easy. Therefore, if your security needs change, the guard shack can easily be moved to a different location.&lt;br /&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Customization&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; When choosing a prefabricated guard shack from a reputable manufacturer, you can choose from a host of customized features. As an example, the guard shack can include air conditioning and heating, a restroom, storage cabinets, tinted windows, secure locks on the door and windows, security lighting, an awning for improved visibility and comfort, high-tech communications, surveillance, and more.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For any manufacturing unit, there is no better way to enhance security and provide your trained personnel with an efficient work environment. B.I.G. Enterprise manufactures both standard and customized guard booths, as well as other prefabricated structures.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

        <td>Why Should You Consider Purchasing a Portable Guard House?</td>
        <td>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Should You Consider Purchasing a Portable Guard House?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As the name implies, a portable&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;guard house&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;is a semi-permanent structure commonly used by people who guard the entrance of parking lots, closed-off areas, apartment buildings, businesses, military bases, government sites, and more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you are dealing with limited space but need a guard booth for your business, this is an excellent solution. Not only is this type of structure cost-efficient, it is well built, customizable, and portable. For most people, security is a top priority. Having a guard on duty provides greater peace of mind and helps deter crimes that can devastate a business physically and financially.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reasons for Choosing Portable Guard Booths&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affordability&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; There is a huge difference in cost between prefabricated guard booths and those manufactured on-site. If you are a budget-conscious customer, portable guard booths are definitely the way to go. Not only do you spend less on the product itself, but also because the booth is portable, it can go wherever the business goes.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Customization&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Instead of a cookie-cutter design, you have a wide range of choices. Included in this is the size of the guard house, interior and exterior color, types of windows and doors, locking mechanisms, flooring, gutters, roofs, and amenities, such as lighting, heating, and cooling. In fact, guard booths can be customized, making them bullet and explosion proof. The goal is to provide guards with a safe and comfortable place to work throughout the different seasons.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prefabrication&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; When purchasing the best guard booths from a reputable source, you have nothing to worry about. After selecting the correct size, shape, color, amenities, and features, a prefabricated booth is delivered to your location, where it is bolted to a prepared concrete slab.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No Disruptions&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; If you have ever seen a permanent&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;guard house&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;being built, you know how loud and messy the construction process is. Although necessary, this easily disrupts the work environment. With prefabricated guard booths, you avoid this problem.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sustainability&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&ndash; Today, many companies have adopted measures to be more sustainable. With a factory-built&amp;nbsp;&lt;u&gt;guard house&lt;/u&gt;, there is little impact on the environment. In fact, B.I.G. Enterprises, an industry leader, makes an effort to waste as little material as possible.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
