Stainless Acoustic Panel Stations

Steel Casework Frames

Pascetti Steel Design has designed, fabricated and installed powder coated steel casework frames wrapped with white laminate and attached to perforated stainless steel acoustic panels at the new Mariposa Land Port of Entry in Nogales, AZ.  These stations served as public questioning areas for the many pedestrians and drivers traveling across the border entry.  The perforated panels held 3M acoustic insulation to help with the loud sound levels within these busy areas.  Some stations were equipped with bullet-resistant glass and Kevlar panels installed beneath the drywall.
