Detention Facilities
Jails are a specialized building type that utilizes concepts, technology and equipment unlike those used in any other buildings. They must be designed to safely hold prisoners accused of committing every level of crime, separate these prisoners by gender and classification type, while allowing the staff to safely observe and manage the entire population. Providing for the safe management of these inmates with the minimum required number of staff and low maintenance and operational costs are trademarks of jails designed by Wiginton Hooker Jeffry. WHJ Architects has been designing jails in Texas and the Southwest for 30 years. The partners of the firm have designed over 30,000 beds in over 60 facilities.
