Modular Security Cabins
A security cabin has to be comfortable enough for a twelve-hour shift and positioned so the guard can see the whole approach. We glaze the observation sides fully, keep the rear wall solid for equipment, and insulate properly for night work.

Hire Security Cabins in the UK
Need security cabins for a fixed period? Hire it instead of buying. Adacon manufactures the building to your layout and hands it over on hire terms, then collects it when you no longer need it — with the same quality, fit-out and design freedom as a purchase.
Hire terms are flexible — tell us how long you need the unit and we will confirm the rate for that period.

Sightlines first, comfort second, security throughout
The glazing plan is the design. We work out which approach the guard needs to watch and glaze those elevations fully, then keep the remaining wall solid for a desk, monitors and storage.
- Full-height glazing on the observation elevations
- Solid rear wall for desk, monitors and equipment
- Insulation and heating for long night shifts
- Secure multi-point locking and lockable glazing options
- Power, data and containment for CCTV and access control
- Optional WC and tea point for unmanned-site postings
