A 140 m² roofed security cage braced for seismic resistance, Silicon Valley

Security cage installation in California

For a UK-based client owned by a US datacentre operator, Cross-Guard built a roofed cage of about 7 m × 20 m (around 140 m²) in Silicon Valley.

The cage was braced to the building wall and to the concrete slab for seismic resistance, designed with a seismologist's input, and completed in 12 weeks. It survived a later 4.2 magnitude earthquake.
