Corrections & Public Safety

Shaping the Future of Corrections & Rehabilitation

More than ever, modern corrections facilities are required to provide safe and secure environments, while also supporting programs for rehabilitation and providing more comprehensive in-house healthcare services. These multi-faceted needs require thoughtful planning and design to create spaces that support the health and safety of both incarcerated individuals and corrections personnel.
HEAPY is dedicated to designing corrections facilities that not only comply with regulations but also support a healthy, safe, and secure environment for all. We support local, state, and federal institutions with a comprehensive suite of MEP, fire protection, and technology engineering services tailored to the unique needs of corrections and public safety facilities.

Expertise in Advanced Security & Technology System Design

At HEAPY, the design of physical security within corrections facilities is spearheaded by our certified physical security professionals, ensuring an expert approach to safeguarding both infrastructure and occupants.

In terms of technology integration, HEAPY excels in designing advanced technology systems that are integral to modern corrections facilities, such as surveillance and access control systems, paging and intercom systems, sophisticated audio/visual setups, and fully equipped command centers.

Our collaborative approach engages all stakeholders to develop a multi-layered security strategy that incorporates cutting-edge technologies with durable physical barriers. Our team focuses on the strategic placement of surveillance cameras, reinforced entry points, and secure perimeters that are essential for ensuring the safety of both staff and incarcerated individuals.

Optimizing for Comfort, Health, and Wellness

When designing MEP and fire protection systems for correctional facilities, HEAPY emphasizes creating environments that optimize comfort, health, and wellness. We take a balanced approach that addresses stringent security requirements, supports ease of maintenance, and creates a healthy indoor environment.

Our engineering solutions prioritize the integration of advanced HVAC systems that control air quality, temperature, and humidity. This not only minimizes health risks associated with poor air quality but also enhances overall comfort and wellbeing. In addition, our design team prioritizes reliable and adaptable electrical infrastructure to ensure longevity and resilience inside these mission critical facilities.

Furthermore, HEAPY incorporates innovative fire protection systems designed to be highly effective yet unobtrusive within the confines of secure facilities. By using state-of-the-art smoke detection and fire suppression technologies, we ensure that these systems protect occupants and ensure facility integrity without compromising security.

This holistic approach to MEP and fire protection design not only supports the health and safety of the facility’s occupants but also contributes to more resilient and cost-effective operations. Our building optimization team also offers comprehensive commissioning and energy consulting services to ensure building systems operate as intended.

Together, our team delivers comprehensive MEP engineering and technology design solutions, customized to fulfill the unique requirements of corrections and public safety facilities.
