Moves With the Mission

Modular buildings for government and military buyers

Federal, state and local agencies and military installations use modular buildings for entry control booths, guard towers, offices, training rooms, storage and support buildings. Factory fabrication keeps schedules predictable, and relocatable buildings can move when a mission, a lease or a base plan changes.

Government agencies can order modular buildings through Material Handling USA using GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract GS-07F-0186X, held by our manufacturer partner (current through December 31, 2030).

Entry control points and ballistic protection

White modular gate house with a deep roof fascia and dark windows beside a barrier arm

Entry control points need booths and gate houses with clear sightlines, transaction windows at vehicle height, HVAC for long shifts and conduit for cameras, intercoms and barrier controls. Where a threat assessment calls for it, walls, glass, doors and roof are built to a UL 752 protection level, with every component at the same level.

See ballistic-rated buildings and the ballistic ratings guide. Forced-entry resistance can be added when specified.

Requirement How to handle it
UL 752 ballistic level Set by your threat assessment; applied to walls, glass, doors, roof and transaction windows
Forced-entry resistance Specify the requirement; added as a separate design criterion
UFC or ATFP criteria Reviewed per project: send the criteria that apply, and we confirm what the design can meet during quoting
Standoff and site layout Set by your installation’s security plan
Electronic security Conduit and boxes provided; systems installed by your integrator

Guard towers and training towers

Military and law enforcement sites use elevated cabs for perimeter observation, range control and training. Cabs are built in the factory with glass on the sides that matter, HVAC and power, then set on a steel tower engineered for the site’s height, wind and seismic loads.

Our project pages include an operator cab on a 70-foot tower for the U.S. military. More options on guard towers and observation towers.

Temporary and relocatable buildings for government

Temporary needs come up often: a construction program, a seasonal operation, an emergency, or a mission that will move. Modular buildings give agencies better space than trailers and can be relocated or reconfigured instead of demolished.

Compare options in modular buildings vs. portable trailers. Park and public land agencies: see the Lake Powell and Antelope Island case studies below.
