Federal Facility Entrances

Two security kiosks replaced without closing either entrance.

JS Global demolished outdated structures and installed two prefabricated security kiosks at high-profile federal entrances. The kiosks were operational within 95 days, and neither entrance was closed.

Project Overview

Entrances are the one place a security upgrade cannot interrupt.

Both entrances served high-profile visitors and had to stay open.

JS Global managed the replacement from design through installation, removing the outdated structures and setting prefabricated, ballistic-rated kiosks in their place without disrupting normal operations.

The Challenge

Replace the front door of a federal facility while people are still walking through it.

01

Demolish outdated structures without closing either entrance.

02

Meet the required security rating with a prefabricated design.

03

Compress design, fabrication, and installation into a short schedule.

04

Keep normal operations running throughout the work.

The Approach

Prefabricate, then install quickly at the entrance.

  1. 01

    Design

    JS Global managed the design so the kiosks would meet the required security rating.

  2. 02

    Prefabricate

    The kiosks were built as prefabricated units to shorten the time crews needed at the entrances.

  3. 03

    Demolish

    The outdated structures were removed in a way that kept both entrances open.

  4. 04

    Install

    The new kiosks were set in place and brought into service.

  5. 05

    Operate

    The kiosks were operational within 95 days, with normal operations continuing at both entrances.

The Result

Operational in 95 days, entrances never closed.

01

Two prefabricated security kiosks replaced the outdated structures.

02

The kiosks were operational within 95 days.

03

Neither entrance was closed during the work.

04

Normal operations continued without disruption.

What Made It Work

Prefabrication moved the risk away from the entrance.

The less time a crew needs at a live entrance, the less the entrance is affected.

Building the kiosks as prefabricated units meant that much of the fabrication happened away from the entrances, which shortened the time that work had to take place beside active visitor flow.

Project Questions

Upgrading perimeter security at live entrances.

Practical answers about standards, schedule, and keeping entrances open.

01Did the entrances close during construction?
No. The work was carried out without closing the entrances or disrupting normal operations.
02How quickly were the kiosks operational?
The kiosks were operational within 95 days.
Keep the Entrance Open

Replacing security infrastructure at a live entrance?

Share the entrance count, required security rating, schedule, and operating hours. JS Global will help plan a design and installation sequence that keeps people moving.
