Prisoner transport vehicles are mission-critical assets that need to be secure, compliant, and fully operational at all times. But over time, wear and tear can compromise safety, comfort, and reliability. Rather than replace a vehicle entirely, refurbishment is a smart, cost-effective option that brings aging transports up to modern standards.

At High Level Enterprises, we specialize in refurbishing prisoner transport vehicles for law enforcement agencies, corrections departments, and private security contractors. Our work ensures your vehicle meets current standards for safety, durability, and functionality—without the high cost of buying new.

What’s Included in a Refurbishment?

Our prisoner transport vehicle refurbishment services typically include:

  • Structural inspection and reinforcement
  • Interior reconditioning: seating, restraints, climate control
  • Partition panel and containment upgrades
  • Body repair, repainting, and corrosion treatment
  • Mechanical repairs and performance upgrades
  • Lighting and camera system installation
  • ADA-compliant modifications, if required

We also ensure vehicles meet or exceed local, state, and federal standards for inmate transportation.

The High Level Refurbishment Process

We follow a proven, step-by-step approach to ensure the refurbished vehicle is safe, secure, and built to last:

Testing & Delivery

Every refurbished vehicle goes through a quality assurance process, including mechanical checks, security testing, and road-readiness evaluation.

Vehicle Intake & Assessment

We conduct a full evaluation of your vehicle, documenting areas of concern related to safety, functionality, and wear.

Customized Plan

We develop a scope of work based on your operational requirements and budget, outlining every recommended upgrade or repair.

Disassembly & Repair

Our team removes worn or outdated components and performs structural, mechanical, and cosmetic repairs.

Security Upgrades

We reinforce critical areas like restraints, partitions, doors, and locks to ensure maximum containment and durability.
