Great Meadows Correctional Facility
Koch Corporation has installed Hopes Steel Guard Series Steel Detention Windows in prisons across the US for several decades and remains a leading installer for these products with over 30 years experience. Hopes Windows has been a long standing leader in the production of detention and security windows during their 100 plus years of business. It is said that Hopes windows often outlast the buildings in which they are installed! We install even the most difficult security and detention windows despite the odd shaped openings many of the aged buildings present. Often there is an issue with asbestos and lead due to the age of the buildings but Koch is able to self-perform all abatement mitigation.
Project Description
Great Meadow Correctional Facility is a maximum security prison for men, located in Comstock, New York. The prison includes a Special Housing Unit confining inmates in disciplinary segregation, a Behavioral Health Unit for inmates with long term disciplinary and mental health problems, an Alcohol and Substance Abuse Treatment Program and a variety of educational, vocational and treatment programs. Opened in 1909, on a 1000 acre campus. Given the age of the buildings, the State of New York Design and Construction Office of General Services, wisely targeted replacing the windows to improve energy efficiency. Koch Corporation won the contract to install the new detention windows through the competitive bidding process and they installed Hopes Window’s, which are manufactured in America.
