The Prefab Security House Comes with a Bathroom

Sometimes the guard house, or guard shack, if you prefer, is located a long distance from a main building with toilet facilities which is why many purchase Prefab Security houses with bathroom included. Providing a guard house with a restroom is routine for us.

With over twenty years’ experience in designing guardhouses with toilets we would be delighted to assist you in designing your next guardhouse with a restroom.

Our most popular guardhouse bathroom includes a commode, sink, small water heater, ceiling light with exhaust fan, GFI receptacle and light switch. Don’t forget that in nearly all cases, a guardhouse bathroom will need to be ADA Compliant. (Americans Disabilities Act).

Therefore the necessary grab bars are also included. For the required wheelchair turning radius in your guardhouse toilet, you may need more space than you originally planned when you first considered purchase of guard houses with bathroom.

DOORS: Our exterior doors can be the standard swinging type or sliding glass. Our hinged (swinging doors) are 3’0” x 6’8”, insulated, metal doors with fixed half glass, nine light windows. They are standard with knob lock and dead bolt, keyed alike. If you need sliding glass, a 6’0” x 6’x8” sliding glass door is available.

Electrical: Our security booth with toilet comes standard with a 100 Amp panel with main breaker. The number of fluorescent lights and duplex receptacles varies depending on the size of your guardhouse. Purchase guard house bathroom facilities for convenience, to fit whatever circumstances you are facing.

Your guardhouse can be equipped with Wall mounted Air Conditioning units in size from 7,000 BTU up to 220 Volt, 18,000 BTU units. If you prefer both heat and cool, we have units ranging in size from 8,000 BTU to 18,000 BTU. If you are located in a really cold climate, you might want to add a wall mounted, fan forced heater in 1500 watt, 120 volt capacity or 3000 watt, 220 volt heater. Both are thermostatically controlled. Another popular heating option is a 48” baseboard heater.

If you are planning to buy a guardhouse with toilet, chances are it will be occupied twenty four hours per day, seven days per week. That means a lot of wear and tear. We build them sturdy to handle that kind of occupancy. Our wall studs are on 16” centers, and the exterior side of the studs is covered with ½” OSB Sheathing to give the walls added strength. Over the OSB we use a flat type aluminum siding in your choice of our standard siding and trim colors. Aluminum won’t rust and the OSB underneath makes it extremely dent resistant.
