For our rental clients, we provide a professional security checkpoint for events of all sizes. We will rent as few as one and as many as 200 walkthrough metal detectors. Our services include delivery, setup, calibration, wiring, breakdown, and removal of all equipment. We also provide on-site supervisors to ensure an event runs as seamlessly as possible.

For our sales customers, we sell only the best names in security metal detectors & x-ray machines, including Garrett, Rapiscan, Astrophysics, Adani, and Leidos systems. We will ship our equipment anywhere in the world and provide installation and tutorial services upon request. Our equipment is suitable for use in schools, nightclubs, courthouses - anywhere ongoing security is needed.

There is nothing more important in public spaces than crowd protection. Security Detection has the ability to secure large and small venues and events. Our walk through metal detectors allow people to pass through security quickly, while our handheld wands add an extra level of detection whenever necessary. X-ray machines can be critical additions at sites where people are entering with personal effects such as backpacks, coolers, cameras, laptop computers, etc.

Security Detection is proud to be the nation's premier supplier and operator of security metal detection equipment. Until we live in an age when event security is no longer needed, we are honored to provide comprehensive metal detection services to the American public.
