Security Gatehouse Hire

It gives security or gate staff a manned base at the site entrance to check vehicles, sign in visitors and control who gets onto the project. Sat by the gate, it deters theft and unauthorised access while keeping the guard out of the weather. Tell us your access point and we’ll help you place the right unit.

A typical gatehouse is compact, around 7ft by 7ft or 10ft, which is plenty for one or two people and a worktop without taking up half the entrance. Larger cabins are available if you need space for monitors, an access barrier panel or a second person. Let us know your setup and we’ll match the size, and we’ll confirm the spec of a given unit.

Most are flat-sided steel units, typically with a multi-point locking steel door and steel shutters over the windows that lock from the inside, so when the guard goes off shift the cabin closes down tight against break-ins and vandalism overnight. The exact locking spec is model dependent, so contact us and we’ll confirm what a given unit carries.

Generally yes. On most units glazing runs across several sides so staff get a clear, all-round view of the gate, approaching vehicles and the perimeter, and many include an opening window with a speech panel for talking to drivers and visitors without leaving the cabin. Glazing layout varies by model, so get in touch and we’ll confirm what a given unit carries.

Most do. Many are fitted with an electric panel heater, interior light and at least one double socket for a kettle, monitor or radio, run from a 240V hook-up, though the exact spec is model dependent, so contact us and we’ll confirm what a given unit carries. If your entrance has no mains nearby we can also advise on a generator or battery option to keep it powered.

Both options exist. The standard steel cabin is a static unit, craned or forklifted into position, while towable gatehouses on a chassis suit sites where you need to move the access point or pull it off quickly. Tell us how long it’s staying and we’ll recommend the right one.

It depends on your location and current availability. We coordinate delivery and collection through our supplier network, and can often help with urgent or time-critical jobs, subject to availability. Send us your site postcode and we’ll confirm a realistic delivery time.

Security gatehouse hire covers the anti-vandal steel cabin itself, typically fitted with heating, lighting, a power socket and lockable window shutters, plus delivery and siting at your entrance. The exact fit-out varies by model, so get in touch and we’ll confirm what a given unit carries. For longer postings we can pair it with a welfare cabin or toilet, and extras like a barrier or CCTV can be arranged.

From a few weeks covering a short project up to the full length of a long-term build, with rates easing on longer hires. There’s no need to commit to a fixed end date. Just give us a rough duration and we’ll quote accordingly.
