6 Essential Uses Of Anti-Vandal Cabins
The need for secure cabins is never greater than in today’s fast moving and uncertain world. Anti-vandal cabins have a diverse range of purposes and can provide peace of mind that your equipment is safe and secure, whatever the challenges that you face.
The cabins are steel-clad and have steel window shutters and 10-point locking doors for extra security. They are highly durable and can withstand the harshest weather conditions. They are also customisable to suit your needs, for example with heating, lighting, and ventilation.
When extra vigilance against theft or vandalism is required, they can be coupled with other security measures such as CCTV cameras and intruder alarms. Here’s a look at some of the uses of these popular storage solutions.
Construction sites
Anti-vandal cabins are a key component of many construction sites. These sites can be a target for organised crime gangs and opportunist thieves because they are used to store valuable materials, tools, and equipment. The enhanced security of the cabins means that the risk of costly and disruptive break-ins is greatly reduced.
Construction sites can also be in exposed and remote places that are subject to extreme weather conditions. This can lead to materials or equipment being damaged or even rendered unusable. The robust cabins provide a safe space where property will be completely protected from the elements.
Furthermore, the cabins can provide safe and hygienic welfare facilities for workers, where they will be completely protected from the dangers of the site, and also dust and harsh weather conditions. This may be a legal requirement in certain situations, and also leads to a happier and more productive workforce.
Educational settings
There has been a lot of media coverage about the dire state of Britain’s school buildings, with many forced to close partially or even completely due to crumbling concrete or the presence of asbestos. Some schools are simply short of space and do not have the budget to expand.
Safe and secure portable cabins provide an ideal and cost-effective solution to this dilemma, whether they are required on a permanent or temporary basis. If the school or college is in an area with a high risk of crime and vandalism, then they provide extra peace of mind that staff, students and equipment will be safe and secure.
The cabins can serve as classrooms, and also storage spaces, offices, hygiene facilities, or canteens. They are efficient with minimal running costs and can be installed with little disruption to staff and students.
Emergency response
During emergency situations such as war zones or natural disasters, a fast and effective response is critical. Anti-vandal cabins can provide a safe command centre where supplies, medical equipment and support personnel can be based. This ensures that they are protected from the unstable outside elements and can play an effective role in rescue and relief operations.
Security checkpoints
In situations where there are stringent security requirements, such as military installations or agricultural sites with strict biosecurity policies, then anti-vandal cabins can play a vital role. They can be installed to act as gatehouses to key access points to the site, and used to house security and surveillance equipment and personnel.
The cabins are strong enough to withstand potential attacks and break-in attempts that could otherwise seriously compromise the security of the site and its occupants. They are also a convenient administrative centre to carry out the necessary inspections of stock and identity checks on vehicles and personnel entering and leaving the site.
Event management
Outdoor events such as music festivals, sporting events, and concerts can be challenging to organise and manage. There are many ways in which secure portable cabins can provide support. For example, they can be used as gatehouses to the site and also act as ticket booths and security surveillance units.
Within the site they can serve as information points, medical centres, canteens, toilets, chill-out zones for staff, canteens, retail outlets, equipment storage centres, and more.
Remote workstations
In challenging terrain or weather conditions, secure cabins can serve as fieldstations that are reliable and robust enough to handle the remote environment. This allows equipment to be safely stored and ensures that staff can carry out their work in secure and comfortable conditions, no matter what the outside elements may bring.
