Increase your return on investment by choosing the right institutional furniture, read on to learn what key elements to consider.
An unavoidable cost on most products, maintenance can quickly add up, not to mention take up valuable time that could be allocated elsewhere.
Traditional institutional furniture made from steel can deteriorate under intensive use and requires costly, specialized repairs. As this cost adds up and eats away at your budget, you may end up spending more to maintain the product than what it’s worth.
A durable, long-lasting piece of furniture can significantly reduce or even eliminate maintenance costs completely. Max-Secure®’s full range of anti-ligature furniture is molded as one piece, from a strong FRP composite, which has been proven to be more durable than traditional materials. Not only does our proprietary material lengthen the lifespan of your institutional furniture, but keeps money in your pockets!
Choosing durable, maintenance-free institutional furniture is the first step in increasing your ROI!
A significant cost to consider is that of installation. When sourcing institutional furniture, consider if you have the means to install the furniture yourself or if you will need the detention furniture manufacturer’s assistance. In some cases, the cost of installation can end up costing nearly as much as the product itself.
Additionally, choosing the cheaper option upfront may mean a sacrifice in durability and quality, leading to replacement down the line, essentially meaning you’ll have to repeat the same costs.
Max-Secure® institutional furniture has been installed across North America, with a zero-failure record, and is backed by an industry-leading warranty. Without the need for replacement, you’ll only have to pay for installation once.
Choosing high-quality, durable institutional furniture up-front, is the best and most cost-effective solution for any facility.
Choosing the wrong institutional furniture will eventually lead to the need for replacement. When replacing any furniture in your facility, consider the disposal costs. Disposing of large items, like furniture, can be costly.
Without the need of replacement, Max-Secure®’s durable and maintenance free institutional furniture eliminates all disposal costs, freeing up resources to reinvest in your facility.
The institutional furniture you chose for your facility will have a large impact on not only the look of your facility but the atmosphere and feel of the facility as well.
