SentryPODS Expands Manufacturing Capacity to Meet Growing Demand for Mobile Surveillance Solutions

SentryPODS has officially announced the expansion of its manufacturing operations into a new, larger facility designed to increase production capacity and streamline fabrication processes. The additional shop space allows the company to ramp up production of its most in-demand systems, including solar-powered surveillance trailers, solar surveillance skids, and rooftop surveillance camera pedestals.
This expansion reflects both the growing market demand for reliable, off-grid surveillance and SentryPODS’ commitment to continuous innovation. The new shop area gives engineers and technicians the room, equipment, and workflow optimization necessary to meet higher order volumes while maintaining the rugged build quality SentryPODS is known for.
What This Expansion Means for SentryPODS
A key outcome of this expansion is the ability to bring more manufacturing processes in-house, helping SentryPODS better manage costs while maintaining strict quality control. By handling fabrication, assembly, and finishing internally, the company can offer products that deliver exceptional value at competitive price points—helping customers exceed their security goals without compromise.
The expanded facility provides dedicated space for metal fabrication, component assembly, and hydro-dipping, with future plans to integrate CNC machining capabilities. These advancements will allow SentryPODS to produce intricate parts and enhance products like the Rapid Attachment System Kit, ensuring precision fit, reliability, and performance in every deployment.
By centralizing these capabilities, SentryPODS strengthens its American-made craftsmanship and reduces reliance on third-party suppliers. The result is faster production cycles, tighter tolerances, and more flexibility in customizing surveillance solutions for a wide range of industries. The new space also supports closer collaboration between engineering, R&D, and production teams, accelerating innovation and allowing rapid prototyping of next-generation surveillance technologies.

Overall, the expansion represents a strategic investment in scalability, efficiency, and long-term innovation—positioning SentryPODS to continue setting the standard for rugged, reliable, and self-powered surveillance systems.
What This Expansion Means for SentryPODS Customers
For SentryPODS customers, this move means faster delivery times, greater customization options, and continued assurance of the highest build quality. The increased in-house control helps stabilize pricing and ensures that each surveillance system—whether a solar trailer, skid, or rooftop unit—is built with consistency and precision. With improved logistics and production efficiency, customers benefit from shorter lead times and enhanced service responsiveness, making it easier to deploy advanced surveillance solutions in time-sensitive or mission-critical situations.
What This Expansion Means for the Community
Beyond the business advantages, the expansion has a significant impact on the Ashland community. The additional facility space creates new job opportunities for welders, assemblers, technicians, and engineers. It also strengthens local partnerships with schools and technical programs, providing pathways for skills development and manufacturing careers. By investing in local talent and keeping production domestic, SentryPODS contributes to economic growth and reinforces its commitment to supporting the community that supports its success.
In the words of CEO Brent Canfield, this move represents more than growth: it’s a commitment to quality, community, and long-term innovation. As SentryPODS continues to expand, the company remains dedicated to developing reliable, advanced, and accessible surveillance systems that deliver exceptional value to every customer.
