Fabric Structures for Detention Center Use
It’s a known fact that the majority of our detention centers are overcrowded and understaffed, but in situations where security and optimal organization are required, what choices other than facility expansion do we have?
The answer is fabric shelters from Big Top Manufacturing.
Bear in mind, our enclosures are not employed to house or process detainees; these activities must take place in secure, brick-and-mortar facilities under appropriate supervision.
Fabric Building Solutions for Detention Centers
Big Top fabric buildings are useful, however, in a number of other ways within a detention center setting. Here are just a few uses:
- As warehousing and storage space for supplies and equipment
- As a place for staff and personnel to gather and organize
- For outdoor spaces not used by detainees, such as parking lots
- Office space and areas for detention center administrators can be constructed within a Big Top fabric building
- To house police and transport vehicles away from the weather
- As maintenance space when repairs are needed
Big Top fabric structures make ideal supplementary buildings on detention center campuses for a range of uses aside from directly housing detainees. In fact, many government bodies use our enclosures as auxiliary buildings, meeting the needs that a shortage of space creates.
Also, because our structures are so easily relocated, you can mobilize them from one area of the detention center campus to another when a need is met or operations shift. This saves time and money, not having to purchase and erect a second or third shelter. If a large, complex is required, however, our modular design makes combining units a feasible option.
