Buying from Security Cabins
Are your prices including VAT?
Prices are shown + VAT, the way trade buyers expect, with the inc-VAT figure underneath. Delivery is quoted for your postcode.
How do I order?
Add buildings to your quote basket and press Request a quote, or send us an inquiry. Give us an email or phone number and we send a written quote and drawing by email. There is no online payment.
How is a cabin delivered?
On a lorry with its own crane (HIAB). The driver lifts the cabin onto your base. We need clear access for the lorry and no overhead cables near the lift.
What base do I need?
A firm, level base: a concrete slab, paving slabs or level concrete pads at the corners. We send a base plan with the quote.
Do cabins arrive assembled?
GRP and panel cabins and kiosks arrive assembled. Containers can come assembled or flat-packed; a flat-packed container is bolted together on site.
Can I change doors, windows and colours?
Yes. Tell us in your inquiry and we send an updated drawing. Coloured GRP and branded finishes are available.
Why do you ask for my email or phone number?
We need an email or phone number to send your written quote.
Do I need planning permission?
It depends on the building, where it goes and what it is for. Use our planning checker for garden buildings in England, and ask us about site and commercial buildings.
What warranty do I get?
12 months against manufacturing and assembly faults. Production is ISO 9001:2015 and CE certified.
Do you hire cabins?
No — we sell. Buying often beats a year or two of hire, and you can sell the building on later.
Do you deliver to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland?
We deliver across Great Britain; ask us about Northern Ireland and the islands and we will quote the transport.
