Security cages for Salt Lake City warehouses and facilities

MH-USA is based in Salt Lake City, so this is our home market. Our crews install security cages across the valley every month, from the northwest quadrant warehouse district to the distribution parks in West Valley, Salt Lake City International Center and along I-215.

Being local means a site visit is easy, we know the floor slabs in the older buildings, and we can be back quickly if you add a door or extend a run. For statewide projects, see our Utah security cages page.

What we install in Salt Lake City

Every system is modular steel wire mesh from manufacturers such as Wire Crafters and SpaceGuard, so it can be extended or reconfigured later.

Salt Lake City industries we build security cages for

Distribution and e-commerce

The I-80 and I-15 crossroads makes Salt Lake a regional fulfillment hub. Cages protect high-value SKUs, returns and client stock. See our Utah 3PL warehouse cages guide.

Life sciences and supplements

Pharmaceutical, medical device and supplement makers separate quarantined, released and controlled material. Distributors of Schedule III–V products use cages built to the DEA cage specification.

Government, utilities and mining

Municipal shops, utilities and mining suppliers use cages and tool cribs to control shared tools, spare parts and accountable property.

Codes, permits and floors in Salt Lake City

Installers anchoring a wire partition post baseplate to a concrete floor

The Wasatch Fault puts the Salt Lake valley in a high seismic design category, so tall cages and ceiling-supported cages need proper anchoring and, in some cases, bracing to the building. Our anchoring and seismic bracing page explains what applies, and the Utah permit guide covers when a cage needs a permit.

Whatever the jurisdiction, three things come up on almost every project: sprinkler coverage under any mesh ceiling, clear egress for anyone working inside, and anchoring to sound concrete. We address all three on the layout drawing.

Choosing doors, locks and ceilings

Doors: hinged doors for people and carts, double hinged or sliding doors for pallets and forklifts, and Dutch doors or service windows for issue counters.

Locks: keyed cylinders, padlock hasps, combination locks or card readers with an entry log. See our security cage locks guide.

Ceilings: add a mesh ceiling when people could climb over, or run walls tall enough that they cannot.

To quote quickly, send a floor sketch or CAD file, clear height, door locations, what you need to secure and whether forklifts need access. Budget ranges per linear foot are on the security cage cost guide, and the pre-configured kits above are priced online for smaller needs. Installation details are on our security cage installation page.

Security cage options compared

Most buyers weigh a mesh cage against a few alternatives. Here is how they usually stack up for warehouse and facility storage.

Option Visibility Reconfigure later Typical use Trade-off
Welded or woven wire partition Full; mesh you can see and spray through Yes, panels unbolt Cages, cribs, rack enclosures Needs anchoring to sound concrete
Chain link cage Full Difficult Low-cost bulk storage Fabric can be cut or pried; sags over time
Drywall or block room None No Offices and vaults Construction, permits and sprinklers inside
Lockable cabinets Limited Moves easily Small parts and documents Small capacity; no pallets
Pre-configured cage kit Full Yes Standard 8×8 to 12×12 storage Fixed sizes; still needs anchoring

Open mesh is usually the best balance: inventory stays visible for counts and cameras, sprinkler water and light pass through, and the cage can move with your operation. Solid rooms make sense for records vaults or when the fire code or a regulation calls for them.

Security cage planning checklist

Answering these before you request a quote saves a round of revisions and gets you an accurate price the first time.

  • Floor dimensions of the area and any columns inside it
  • Clear height to the lowest obstruction (sprinkler pipe, lights, joists)
  • Whether people could climb over the walls if there is no ceiling
  • What goes inside: shelving, pallet rack or floor-stacked pallets
  • How product moves in and out: people, carts, pallet jacks or forklifts
  • Door count, sizes and which way they should swing or slide
  • Lock type and who needs access, and whether you need an entry log
  • Sprinkler, lighting and camera coverage inside the cage
  • Slab type and condition, and any radiant heat or utilities in the floor
  • Any regulation that applies: DEA, TTB, state cannabis or insurer requirements
  • Whether you lease the building and need landlord approval for anchors
  • Your target install date and working hours for the crew

Security Cages in Salt Lake City: FAQs

Do you install security cages in Salt Lake City?
Yes. MH-USA designs, supplies and installs wire mesh security cages throughout the Wasatch Front. Call (801) 328-8788 or request a quote to start with a layout.
How much does a security cage cost?
Cost depends on linear feet, height, doors, ceilings and access control. Our security cage cost guide gives per-foot ranges, and standard kits are priced online.
Does a security cage need a permit in Salt Lake City?
Many simple mesh partitions do not, but tall cages, ceiling-supported cages and anything attached to the structure may need building and fire review. We provide drawings and anchor details for your building department.
How long does installation take?
Most security cages install in one to a few days once materials arrive. Larger projects are phased so operations keep running.
Can forklifts get into the cage?
Yes. Sliding or double doors sized to your forklift and loads keep material moving, and we check aisle widths and overhead clearance.
Can the cage be expanded later?
Yes. Modular panels bolt to new posts, so you can add runs, doors or ceilings as your needs change.
