Campus Security Booth | Union County Elementary School

A compact prefabricated security booth with large windows and an enclosed workspace for monitoring vehicles and visitors at a school entrance.

Challenge

Union County Elementary School needed a way to better control vehicle and visitor access at its campus entrance. School personnel wanted a dedicated space where officers could monitor who was entering and leaving throughout the day without interfering with traffic flow. The structure also needed to fit into the entrance of the recently built school and complement the surrounding campus.

Solution

Panel Built provided a compact prefabricated security booth positioned directly alongside the campus entry lane. Large windows on multiple sides give personnel a clear view of approaching vehicles and visitors while providing an enclosed workspace for monitoring access to the school.

The booth was prefabricated before arriving on site, reducing the amount of construction required at the school. Panel Built originally supplied the structure with a white exterior, and brick cladding was later added to coordinate with the architecture of the elementary school. This allowed the school to change the booth's exterior appearance after installation while retaining the original prefabricated structure.

Key Features

  • Controlled Campus Entrance: Provides a dedicated location for monitoring vehicles and visitors entering the school.
  • Compact Footprint: Positioned alongside the entry lane without obstructing vehicle traffic.
  • Clear Visibility: Large windows on multiple sides provide broad views of the entrance.
  • Enclosed Workspace: Gives school security personnel a protected space for managing campus access.
  • Prefabricated Construction: Manufactured off-site to reduce construction activity at the school.
  • Custom Exterior: Brick cladding was added after installation to coordinate with the surrounding campus architecture.

Conclusion

The completed security booth gives Union County Elementary School a dedicated checkpoint for monitoring daily campus access. Its location at the entrance allows school police to see who is coming and going while maintaining the flow of vehicles onto the property. The brick exterior also shows how a prefabricated booth can be modified after installation to better fit its surroundings.
