Backflow Security Cage Installations

Backflow device theft is escalating across the country, with thieves targeting the valuable copper and brass components for quick cash. These outdoor assemblies present themselves as easy targets—unsecured, unmonitored, and highly profitable when sold for scrap. Property owners face not only the expense of replacement devices ranging from $2,000 to $50,000, but also the risk of water service shutoffs that disrupt operations and frustrate tenants.

Don't let your property become the next victim. Professional backflow security cage installations provide the robust protection your assets demand.

Custom-Built Protection for Every Property Type

At County Backflow, we understand that no two backflow assemblies are identical. That's why we specialize in custom-fabricated security cages engineered to your exact specifications. Whether you're protecting a single residential irrigation system or securing dozens of assemblies across a commercial portfolio, our welded steel enclosures deliver theft-deterrent strength while maintaining easy access for annual testing and maintenance.

Our security cage installations feature heavy-gauge steel construction, professional-grade welding, and powder-coated finishes that withstand years of outdoor exposure. Each cage is designed with ventilation to prevent moisture buildup while creating an impenetrable barrier against theft and vandalism.

Materials & Construction Excellence

Every security cage we install begins with premium materials selected for durability and security:

• Heavy-gauge steel tubing provides structural integrity that resists cutting and prying attempts
• Welded construction creates seamless strength superior to bolted assemblies
• Powder-coated finishes protect against corrosion and weather damage
• Diamond-pattern expanded metal allows airflow while preventing unauthorized access
• High-security puck locks deter even determined thieves with cut-resistant, pick-proof design

Installation Built to Last

Professional installation separates effective protection from wasted investment. Our licensed C-36 contractors ensure every cage is properly anchored and secured:

• Concrete pad mounting with hardened anchor bolts
• Tamper-resistant fasteners that prevent easy removal
• Precise alignment for operational access
• Key management guidance for property managers and testing companies

Facilities directors choose us for commercial buildings, industrial plants, and government facilities where downtime isn't an option. Residential homeowners trust our expertise to safeguard their irrigation systems and fire service connections.

Our experience with major commercial clients and government contracts means we understand the unique security challenges facing high-value properties.

The Complete Protection Solution

Security cages do more than prevent theft. Our installations deliver comprehensive benefits that protect your investment from multiple threats:

Theft Prevention - The visible deterrent of professional-grade steel construction and high-security locks convinces thieves to move on to easier targets.

Weather Protection - Powder-coated enclosures shield devices from sun exposure, temperature extremes, and precipitation that accelerate wear and failure.

Vandalism Defense - Welded steel construction prevents tampering, accidental damage, and intentional destruction.

Compliance Support - Many water districts and insurance carriers now require or strongly recommend security cage installations for outdoor assemblies.

Maintained Access - Hinged doors and strategic design ensure testing technicians can perform annual certifications without obstruction.

Reduced Liability - Protected assemblies eliminate public exposure to valves and mechanical components, reducing injury risks.
