Materials and Fabrication

A guard shack is typically 4 to 8 feet in diameter. Different types of guard booths are made from different materials. However, a typical guard booth is made of heavy-duty steel doors with tempered safety glass windows. It’s also all welded aluminum construction with 360-degree visibility. A guard shack can be designed to withstand bullets and an explosion. They have become more common since the September 11 attack on the World Trade Centers. Today, they are often used to protect institutions like government buildings, college campuses, museums and transportation terminals.
