How agency orders work

Procurement-friendly from quote to delivery.

Government purchases move on paperwork, so we lead with it: a written quote with the exact configuration and lead time, W-9 on request, and the order held to what procurement approved. We work from agency and municipal purchase orders every week.

For seals, send the artwork your agency already uses. We send a proof showing size and placement on the panel before production, and the same artwork can go on additional pieces later so the council chamber and the press room match.

Courtroom-grade hardwood
Solid wood lecterns built to sit beside a judicial bench, in stains that match existing millwork.
Height-adjustable models
Pneumatic and electric height adjustment for public meeting rooms serving standing and seated speakers.
Ballistic options
Bullet-resistant lecterns are available for facilities that require them. Call to discuss specifications.

The bullet-resistant workstation

Three-sided ballistic coverage for courthouses, clerk counters, and public-facing offices: NIJ-rated glass above, internal ballistic steel below, and a seamless transition between the two with no exposed gaps. Handcrafted in the USA in oak, cherry, mahogany, or walnut, it reads as furniture, not fortification—and rolls into place on casters.
