Public Safety · Prisons and Detention Centers
Painting and coatings for prisons and detention centers.
Correctional facilities require detention-grade finishes, security-compliant sealants and crews cleared to work inside. McAllister Painting prepares, paints and coats cells, dayrooms, corridors, control areas, kitchens and exteriors, with the work scheduled around phased pods with escorted access and tool control.

What the work involves
What prisons and detention centers need from a painting contractor.
McAllister completed interior and exterior painting at the Henry County Jail, with pick-proof caulking by our certified installers.
Like every McAllister project, prisons and detention centers work runs through planning, preparation, application and quality control. The planning stage settles access, hours, containment and products with you or the general contractor. Preparation is matched to each substrate so the finish has something sound to hold on to. Application follows the product data sheet and the specification, and every area is checked before it is handed back.
McAllister works as a subcontractor to general contractors on new construction and build-outs, and directly for owners and facility managers on buildings that are already in use, across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.
