There is no typical jail. Facilities can be self-contained or part of a multi-purpose complex wiht courts, Sheriff’s offices or law enforcement. Whatever your need, Durrant’s approach focuses on asking the right questions so we can find the right design solution—together.
Durrant recognizes the impact of design on the long term costs to operate and maintain dentention facilities. This is why we spend time understanding your operational process. We ask how many staff the design would require? Is this number consistent with your jurisdiction’s staffing plan and operations budget? How might the design be modified to make the jail more staff efficient? How could spaces better help staff do their jobs?
We focus on designs that facilitate control and are flexible to accommodate growth and changes in technology, while always considering security and movement within the jail. Durrant designs facilities that works for your staff, your inmates, and your community.
