High-Specification Security Cabins for Merseyside
Our security cabins are built using the P600 modular system, a steel-framed solution manufactured in our Turkey production facility and shipped directly to the UK. Unlike traditional portacabins or shipping container conversions, these modules are designed specifically as habitable spaces. Each unit measures approximately 13 m² and can be configured as a standalone office or joined with others to create larger facilities. For procurement managers and site operators in Liverpool, this means a professional, durable structure that reflects the quality of your brand at the site perimeter.
Applications and Local Suitability
We supply a range of sectors across the Liverpool City Region, including:
- Construction and Development: Site entrance gatehouses for major residential or commercial projects in the Knowledge Quarter or along the waterfront.
- Logistics and Industrial: Check-in cabins for haulage firms and warehouses near the Port of Liverpool or along the M57 corridor.
- Retail and Hospitality: Security hubs for shopping parks and event venues requiring a permanent or semi-permanent presence.
- Education and Public Sector: School gatehouses and facilities management offices for academies and healthcare sites.
Typical Security Configurations
The flexibility of the P600 system allows for various layouts depending on the headcount and technology requirements of your security team. You can explore these layouts in detail at our P600 configurator.
Single Module (approx. 13 m²)
The standard single-module unit is ideal for a gatehouse or solo security post. It provides ample space for a desk, monitoring screens, and a small rest area. These are frequently used at site entrances where footprint is limited.
Two-Module Units (approx. 26 m²)
Joining two modules side-by-side allows for a divided space, creating a private office or a small kitchenette and WC alongside the main monitoring area. This is a common choice for sites requiring 24-hour manning where staff welfare is a priority.
Four+ Module Security Hubs
For large-scale industrial sites or public venues, four or more modules can be combined or stacked across two storeys. This configuration can house entire facilities management teams, including locker rooms, shower facilities, and large-scale server rooms for CCTV monitoring.
What is Included as Standard
Every Adacon security cabin arrives on-site in Liverpool with a high level of internal finish. We do not provide shells; we provide ready-to-use buildings. Standard features include:
- Fully insulated floor, walls, and roof for year-round thermal efficiency.
- Internal walls finished with plasterboard and paint (no plastic-ribbed walls).
- Durable laminate flooring suitable for high-footfall areas.
- Full electrical fit-out including LED lighting and multiple sockets.
- Double-glazed uPVC windows and external doors for security and noise reduction.
- External cladding available in a variety of colours to match corporate branding.
Optional extras such as air conditioning, internal WCs, and kitchenette units are available and are frequently chosen for 24/7 security posts.
Indicative Pricing in Liverpool
The cost of a security cabin depends on the number of modules and the level of internal customisation (such as the addition of plumbing or HVAC). For the security and gatehouse sector, pricing typically ranges between £14,000 and £30,000 plus VAT. This estimate covers the building itself. Delivery and specialist lifting equipment are itemised separately in our formal quotes. For a detailed breakdown based on your specific requirements, you can request a bespoke quote from our team.
Delivery to Liverpool and Surrounding Areas
We deliver across the Liverpool City Region, from the city centre to Wirral, St Helens, and Knowsley. Most units arrive via the M6 and M62, but we are experienced in navigating the specific logistical challenges of the area.
Access Considerations
Liverpool presents a variety of site types. We regularly handle deliveries to:
- Urban Sites: Where narrow streets or city-centre traffic require precise scheduling and often crane-assisted offloading.
- Industrial Zones: Sites in areas like Aintree or Kirkby usually offer better access for heavy goods vehicles, though a level base remains essential.
- Waterfront and Port Sites: Where wind loading and ground conditions must be considered during the planning phase.
Please note that the customer is responsible for ensuring a level, prepared base (such as concrete pads or a slab) is ready before the modules arrive. Final connections to electricity and mains drainage must also be completed by your local contractors.
Lead Times and Availability
Lead times for new builds from our Turkey facility are typically measured in weeks. We maintain a clear production schedule to ensure your site programme stays on track. For projects with urgent deadlines, we occasionally have 'Ready to Order' stock units available in the UK for faster dispatch. We will confirm the exact lead time at the point of quotation.
Planning and Regulations
Whether a security cabin requires planning permission or must meet specific Building Regulations depends on its size, location, and how long it will remain on-site. The rules enforced by Liverpool City Council may differ from those of Sefton or Wirral. We recommend consulting with the relevant local authority planning department early in your project to ensure compliance.
