Upgraded to Like-New Conditions
Guard Buildings purchases used guard booths, portable guard shacks, attendant booths and rough or cold weather shelters from our sources across the United States and Canada that are no longer needed at the facility or were replaced for various reasons.
The structures are brought into our facility and given a thorough mechanical, electrical and structural evaluation. At this point, all defects or damaged parts are replaced or repaired to bring the booth to like-new standards.
The building is inspected by quality control and, if it passes inspection, a fresh coat of paint is applied.
Our Refurbishing Process, Step by Step
| Stage | What We Do | What It Means For You |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Sourcing | We purchase used booths, portable guard shacks, attendant booths and cold weather shelters across the US and Canada | A rotating inventory covering many manufacturers, styles and models |
| 2. Intake | Each structure is brought into our facility and logged before any work begins | Full traceability on the unit you are quoted |
| 3. Mechanical evaluation | Doors, windows, hardware and moving components are tested | Everything opens, closes and locks the way it should |
| 4. Electrical evaluation | Wiring, panel, lighting and outlets are checked end to end | Hook it to your power source and put it to work |
| 5. Structural evaluation | Welded steel frame, walls, roof and floor are assessed | The same structural integrity we demand on new builds |
| 6. Repair & replacement | All defects or damaged parts are repaired or replaced to like-new standards | Like-new condition at a fraction of the cost of new |
| 7. Quality control | The unit must pass a full QC inspection before moving forward | Only booths that pass are offered for sale |
| 8. Fresh paint | A new coat of paint is applied once the booth clears inspection | It looks the part at your entrance from day one |
| 9. Final testing & shipment | Final testing, then shipment to your location ready to use | Delivery often within 2 days of purchase |
Custom upgrades such as blast resistance, specialty finishes or integrated systems may require additional lead time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a used guard shack and a refurbished guard booth?
Both start as pre-owned structures. A refurbished guard booth is one that has already gone through our full reconditioning program: mechanical, electrical and structural evaluation, repair or replacement of every defective part, quality control inspection and a fresh coat of paint. That is how a used booth reaches like-new condition before it ships to you.
Where do your used guard booths come from?
We purchase used guard booths, portable guard shacks, attendant booths and rough or cold weather shelters from sources across the United States and Canada — facilities where the unit was replaced or is simply no longer needed. Because of that, our inventory typically represents a wide variety of manufacturers, styles and models.
What is inspected before a used guard shack is sold?
Every unit receives a thorough evaluation covering:
- Mechanical components: doors, windows, hardware and moving parts
- Electrical system: wiring, panel, lighting and outlets
- Structure: welded steel frame, walls, roof and floor
All defects or damaged parts are repaired or replaced, and the booth only moves forward if it passes quality control inspection.
How fast can I get a used guard shack delivered?
Refurbished units are the fastest option we offer — many are available for delivery within just 2 days of purchase, and your quote arrives in under 3 hours. Custom upgrades such as blast resistance, specialty finishes or integrated systems may require additional lead time.
Are used guard booths code compliant?
Code compliance is not optional for us. Whether the unit is used, refurbished or brand new, we deliver buildings inspected against the standards that matter — including high velocity wind zones and ADA accessibility. Tell our team the jurisdiction and use case for your site and we will confirm the exact certifications your project needs before you buy.
What do I need on site to put a refurbished booth into service?
Very little. The booth arrives fully assembled and tested, so you need a level surface — concrete, asphalt or compacted grade — equipment to set it in place (usually a forklift or crane) and a power source to hook it to. From there it is ready to use.
Can a used guard shack be customized before delivery?
Yes. Sliding windows, HVAC, extra doors, upgraded lighting, camera and access control provisions and exterior finishes can all be added during reconditioning. Heavier upgrades like blast resistance or fully integrated systems are available as well, with additional lead time.
