The Niagara County NY Jail is a medium-security detention center located at 5526 Niagara St Ext Lockport, NY which is operated locally by the Niagara County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Niagara County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Lockport Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.
The Jail is a medium-security complex of various housing units. The basic housing floor incorporates four separate 56-cell direct supervision housing pods arranged around a unit control center, permitting observation of inmate outdoor recreation activity from two separate security positions, limiting staff requirements and minimizing operational costs. The new facility is connected to the existing jail on the ground floor and the second level, yet still separates inmate and staff/service functions. The new addition will harmonize with the existing building mass, height and color.
Intake, Transfer & Release - Each inmate once processed, will enter the Reception Housing area where they will be detained until they are classified and health history and physical exam are completed. While being detained here, each inmate is evaluated by the Reception Housing Officer and classified by the Classification Officer. After the booking procedure is completed, all inmates will are issued an identification bracelet. This bracelet contains the inmate's identifying information. The bracelet remains on the inmate's left wrist until such time they are released from the Niagara County Jail.
Education - New York State mandates that all inmates under the age of 21 are afforded the opportunity to attend education classes while incarcerated. This program is administered by the Orleans Niagara BOCES in partnership with the Lockport City School District. Classes are held five days a week year-round and students follow their regular High School curriculum or earn a High School Equivalency (HSE) diploma. Inmates over the age of 21 may participate in educational classes as seats are available to work towards the HSE diploma.
Health Services - As required by New York State, inmates receive access to comprehensive healthcare services while incarcerated. Health services provided include, but are not limited to medical care, emergency dental care, mental health services and pharmaceutical.
Legal Assistance - All inmates are entitled to legal counsel. If an inmate cannot afford an attorney, Public Defender slips are available from the Correction Officer assigned to the housing area. An attorney may visit an inmate at any time not disruptive to the jail routine. All legal visits shall be done in accordance with the Niagara County Jail's security and housing policies. No member of the Niagara County Sheriff's Office may act as a legal representative, attorney, counselor-at-law, legal advisor or paralegal on behalf of an inmate. Legal research materials are available and a jail law library is maintained as required by New York State for inmate use.
Notary Public services are available to each inmate as required by New York State. The Notary shall be available to inmates within one (1) business day after the services are requested.
Niagara County NY Jail publishes the names of their inmates currently in their facility in New York. Your search should start with this locator first to see if your loved one is there.
The second box is the InmateAid Inmate Search. This database of inmates is user-generated content for the purpose of accessing and utilizing any or all of the InmateAid services. If you need our assistance creating your own inmate profile to keep in touch, email us at aid@inmateaid.com and we will assist you in locating your inmate.
As a last resort, you might have to pay for that information if we do not have it. The Arrest Record Search will cost you a small amount, but their data is the freshest available and for that reason they charge to access it.
