Professional Security Solutions for Leicester Businesses
For organisations in Leicester, maintaining secure and professional site access is a priority. Adacon provides modular building solutions that move beyond the limitations of traditional portacabins. Our P600 system is designed for longevity and comfort, ensuring that security personnel have a high-quality environment to monitor sites 24/7. These units are built in our dedicated production facility and delivered to Leicester sites with all internal finishes, including plastering, painting, and flooring, already complete.
Typical Configurations and Specifications
The P600 system is inherently flexible, allowing for various layouts depending on the scale of your Leicester operations. Because modules can be joined side-by-side or stacked, we can accommodate anything from a single-person kiosk to a multi-room security headquarters.
- Single Module (13m²): Ideal for a standard gatehouse or check-in point. Includes space for a desk, monitoring equipment, and a small waiting area.
- Double Module (26m²): Suitable for larger sites requiring separate zones for visitor induction and staff monitoring, or the inclusion of a private WC and kitchenette.
- Multi-Module (4-module+): Used for comprehensive site management hubs, often seen on large-scale construction projects or at regional distribution centres.
Each unit features double-glazed uPVC windows and external doors as standard, with the option to configure window placement on every wall to ensure 360-degree visibility for security staff. You can design your specific layout using our free P600 configurator to get an instant price estimate for your project.
Standard Features and Customisation
Every Adacon building is delivered with a high-specification internal finish. Standard features include insulated walls, floor, and roof; plastered and painted internal walls; laminate flooring; and integrated LED lighting and electrical sockets. We do not use the raw corrugated steel walls typical of container conversions; our buildings look and feel like permanent structures from the inside.
For security applications, buyers often choose to add specific options such as air conditioning, internal WC compartments, and heavy-duty exterior cladding in brand-consistent colours. If your site requires a more extensive setup for personnel, you may also be interested in our security cabins for welfare and office use.
Indicative Pricing for Leicester Projects
Pricing for a P600 security gatehouse typically ranges from £14,000 to £32,000. This range accounts for the number of modules required and the level of internal fit-out, such as the addition of plumbing or HVAC systems. These figures are indicative; a final itemised quote will be provided based on your specific configuration and delivery requirements. Please note that groundworks, foundations, and final utility connections are the responsibility of the client and are quoted separately.
Delivery and Logistics in Leicestershire
Leicester’s central location and proximity to the M1, A46, and A6 make it an ideal area for modular delivery. However, we recognise the specific challenges presented by the local geography. Whether your site is located in the tight urban footprint of the city centre near the Highcross or on an expansive industrial estate in Beaumont Leys, we manage the logistics accordingly. For sites with restricted access—such as narrow terraced streets or constrained commercial yards—we can coordinate crane-assisted delivery to ensure the modules are placed precisely on your prepared base. Delivery is quoted per site and itemised clearly in your proposal.
Planning and Compliance
When installing modular buildings in Leicester, it is important to consider local planning requirements. While many modular units are treated as temporary structures, rules regarding placement, duration, and usage vary. We recommend consulting with Leicester City Council or the relevant district council (such as Blaby, Charnwood, or Harborough) to confirm whether your specific installation requires formal planning permission or building regulations approval.
Why Choose Adacon for Your Gatehouse?
Adacon provides a streamlined alternative to traditional construction. While a brick-and-mortar gatehouse could take months to build and cause significant site disruption, our modular approach allows for lead times measured in weeks. Our buildings are manufactured off-site, meaning minimal noise and footfall on your premises during the installation phase. Furthermore, the P600 system is relocatable; if your site layout changes or you move to a new location in the East Midlands, your gatehouse can be transported and repurposed, protecting your capital investment.
