Why bathroom pods
Why custodial suits manufactured bathrooms.
- 01
Anti-ligature detailing is engineered once and repeated exactly, rather than interpreted cell by cell.
- 02
Secure service access is designed into the pod so maintenance does not compromise the specification.
- 03
Specifications are locked and signed off before production begins.
- 04
Factory inspection removes compliance risk from a secure, access-restricted site.
Relevant systems
Which Walker system fits.
Steel framed construction delivers the rigidity and tamper resistance custodial briefs demand. Composite GRP is used where a seamless, highly durable shell is preferred.
