Maintenance Tips for Modular Security Booths



If you are planning to invest in modular security booths, you are likely concerned about the maintenance aspect, as these sheds are much different than traditional buildings. Before you make a purchase, it is important to have some basic information about these modular buildings that are designed just for your specific needs. 

Just like any type of building structure, regular maintenance of modular security houses helps ensure that they stay as durable and aesthetically pleasing as possible. We’ve prepared a list of some easy tips that can help you prevent corrosion and damage to the structure, while ensuring that the building stays for a longer period.

Walls & Roof

The walls and roof are literally holding your modular security booths together. Your top priority should be to ensure these aspects stay as strong and sound as possible. It is recommended that a light pressure wash should be conducted every year for any panel roof or panel wall section exposed to salt water environment.

Windows & Doors

You can use mild exterior cleaner to maintain the working condition of windows and doors. If your building has sliding doors or windows, make sure to clean their tracks at regular intervals and their drain holes should be kept open. Also, clean the dust on the tracks as it could potentially interfere with the door and cause premature wear of the door hangers. Make sure to check the weather strip at regular intervals for adjustment and damage. When the building is delivered and set up, it will be level but time and settling of the ground may cause it to become out of level. This may cause sliding windows and doors to become difficult to close but it can also cause damage to these sliding windows and doors over time. Make sure that modular security booths are exactly level; if you are not sure, have this checked by a specialist and corrected if necessary. This is an important aspect of proper every day window and door function.

Electric Utility

Because most of the security booths come with modern features like climate control, light and other electrical equipment, it is important that you take care of the wiring and the electric utility. Nearly all the guard booths come with two or more lights. The light fixtures equipped with acrylic lenses should be cleaned at regular intervals in order to keep them functioning at their best. Avoid placing objects on or close to the heater, especially during operation.
