May brings a focused schedule of industry events spanning energy infrastructure and corrections — two sectors where perimeter security demands are among the most operationally consequential. TYMETAL will be attending conferences in both areas, engaging with professionals responsible for protecting critical assets and managing high-security facilities.
These events offer an opportunity to discuss the physical security challenges specific to each sector and to share insight on engineered perimeter systems built to address them.
IEEE Power & Energy Society Transmission and Distribution Conference
Chicago, IL | May 4–7, 2026 ieeet-d.org
Transmission and distribution infrastructure represents some of the most critical and geographically distributed assets in the energy sector. Protecting substations, switching stations, and other T&D facilities requires perimeter solutions that can perform reliably across varied environments and threat conditions.
The IEEE PES T&D Conference brings together engineers, utility professionals, and infrastructure leaders focused on the future of energy systems. TYMETAL will be engaged in conversations around crash-rated barriers, controlled vehicle access, and hardened perimeter design for energy infrastructure — systems engineered and tested to deliver measurable protection where the consequences of failure extend well beyond the facility itself.
AJA Conference
Milwaukee, WI | May 16–20, 2026 americanjail.org
Correctional facilities operate in environments where perimeter integrity is foundational to the safety of staff, residents, and the surrounding community. The American Jail Association Conference brings together administrators, security professionals, and facility planners focused on the operational and physical security challenges unique to these environments.
TYMETAL’s correctional gate systems are designed specifically for the demands of detention and jail facilities — engineered for durability, reliable operation under continuous use, and the level of access control that secure correctional environments require. This event provides an opportunity to connect with professionals navigating the complexities of facility security and to discuss solutions built for long-term performance.
Advancing Perimeter Security in High-Consequence Environments
Energy infrastructure and corrections facilities represent distinct security environments, but they share a common requirement: perimeter systems that are dependable, tested, and appropriate for the operational conditions they face. Whether protecting distributed utility assets from vehicle-based threats or maintaining controlled access at a detention facility, the standard for performance is the same.
TYMETAL’s participation in these May events reflects an ongoing commitment to engaging directly with the professionals and sectors that rely on engineered perimeter security solutions.
If you will be attending either conference, we welcome the opportunity to connect. To schedule time with our team or to learn more about TYMETAL’s perimeter security solutions, contact TYMETAL for more information.
