We offer The Wedge for jails and detention facilities throughout the Southeast, East Coast, and Midwest. We are a sole-source provider that meets all of your state and local regulations, and are with you the entire way from project start to completion.
Retrofit Lock Solutions for Jails and Detention Facilities
Our proprietary design prevents residents from accessing the lock from inside their cells. Residents are unable to slide in items when the door shuts, preventing access to the latch bolt.
Double Offset Design
Make your jail door locks tamper resistant while increasing safety for correctional officers and residents with The Wedge.
As a jail administrator, you’re responsible for your facility’s safety and security. Some swinging jail doors can be manipulated and compromised by residents when you least expect it and with alarming ease. This can cause an increase in dangerous incidents, both for residents and correctional officers. Security breaches can cause irreparable harm to your facility’s reputation and leave you liable.

Resolve Door and Lock Issues
Trusted Experience Decades in the Making
If your prison doors and locks are easily manipulated by residents from inside the cell, the safety of correctional officers and other residents is compromised, which can result in liability suits and a permanently damaged reputation. The Wedge is a patented retrofit locking solution that enables a more secure jail or detention facility. Willo Products has been equipping jails and corrections facilities with detention locks and equipment since the 1970s. We are proud to have partnered with more than 1,500 prisons in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and elsewhere. Call now for an estimate.
Don’t Compromise on Safety
The Gripper
The Gripper pushes against items used to try and pop locks, providing increased tension, preventing the disengagement of the latch bolt. Tools used for escape will fail before the lock does.
Tamper Alarm
The Tamper Alarm notifies correctional officers of any lock tampering. The system sounds an alarm and flashes a red LED light to alert officers of lock manipulation, prompting them to investigate the issue.
