Panel Built Guard Shacks Grant an Instant Perimeter Security Boost

With Panel Built's prefabricated guard shacks, facility's can increase their security's effectiveness overnight.

Panel Built Guard Shacks Grant an Instant Perimeter Security Boost

Panel Built, Inc. offers one product that should be at the focal point of every facility's perimeter security measures: the prefabricated guard shack. Guard shacks should work in tandem with a variety of physical security measures in order to ensure a facility is as secure as possible. However, the guard shack should absolutely be considered the most important factor. First, a facility's guard shack should be in control of its access control points. These are the areas in which traffic flows into and out of the facility. By monitoring all people coming into the facility, the access control points ensure no nefarious actors can make it into the facility. Second, the very presence of a guard shack and posted security guard acts as a deterrent to would-be criminals. If a potential offender is scoping out a place to target, facilities without an active security force will be more likely targeted than ones that do have these security measures.
Finally, a facility's guard shack(s) act as a centralized security hub for your security team. For example, a Panel Built guard shack can be designed and assembled to incorporate a number of additional security products as well. Spotlights, surveillance cameras, closed circuit television monitors, barrier gate controls, and more can be installed into the security building in order to create a comprehensive security center. And, since Panel Built prefabricated all of their security buildings, once the guard shacks are delivered to the facility site, anchored into place, and hooked into an electrical supply, they are up and ready to operate. A Panel Built guard shack is a proven and trusted safety measure by military bases, government buildings, logistic centers, and primary and secondary schools all across the United States.
Panel Built was founded in 1995 by brothers Pat and Mike Kiernan and began with the construction of pre-manufactured buildings. Today, Panel Built offers a complete line of custom modular offices, mezzanines, security booths, pre-assembled exterior buildings, and clean rooms. All our multiple product lines are produced on site, in four state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities. We offer "A Better Way to Create Space" for all of your building projects.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
