Thermal detection systems are primarily used to detect elevated body temperatures, which can be an indicator of illness, making them particularly useful in environments where health screening is essential, such as airports, hospitals, and large public events. These systems complement traditional metal detectors and access control protocols to ensure that potential health risks are identified without disrupting foot traffic or compromising safety.

Hand-held metal detectors are portable screening devices that usually function as secondaries to larger personnel screening devices like walk-through metal detectors and millimeter wave scanners or as independent screening tools in environments that require extreme mobility or that do not support larger platforms. Secondary screening plays a significant role in preventing disruptions to checkpoint traffic and ensuring proper divestment of contraband, while handhelds used for primary screening allow patrolling security to access the utility of a metal detector without returning to a checkpoint.

Selecting the right walkthrough metal detector depends on several factors, including the security level required, the volume of foot traffic, and the environment in which it will be deployed. For high-traffic areas like schools or stadiums, you may need a model with the Quick-Q program for high throughput to ensure efficient flow without sacrificing accuracy. For environments with varying threat levels, adjustable sensitivity and advanced discrimination technology can minimize false alarms while providing targeted threat detection. Garrett offers a range of models designed for different scenarios, and our team can assist in evaluating your specific needs to recommend the best solution.
