SafeHound™ ferrous detection security portal for weapons is sensitive enough to detect hidden guns, knives and even pipe bombs without false triggering on more common items such as belt buckles, jewelry, keys,  medical implants and more. This allows foot traffic to safely flow through the inspection portal for large sporting events, concerts, schools, courtrooms and any safe public or private gathering space. SafeHound features (6) detection zones per sensor pole with multi-object detection to ensure that any subject will be scanned from head to toe for ferrous weapons or contraband.

SafeHound™ ferrous detection security portal for weapons is sensitive enough to detect hidden guns, knives and pipe bombs without false triggering on more common items such as belt buckles, jewelry, keys,  medical implants and more. This allows foot traffic to safely flow through the inspection portal for large sporting events, concerts, schools, courtrooms and any safe public or private gathering space. SafeHound features (6) detection zones per sensor pole with multi-object detection to ensure that any subject will be scanned from head to toe for ferrous weapons or contraband.
Both poles are independent but invisibly tethered with advanced motion detection and background noise monitoring to ensure that ultra-sensitive scanning only occurs while people pass through the portal. Each sensor zone indicates approximate ferrous detection location making further manual searches go faster than ever. SafeHound portals are physically lockable by key, lightweight and can be deployed immediately into any space for instant security checkpoints using the internal battery for a full day of power.
Setup is simple and can be done anywhere – Plug and play out of the box with less than 30 seconds from powering up to full operation. No software or assembly required. SafeHound™ ferrous detection portal is lightweight (only 17 pounds per sensor pole) so it can be easily transported and deployed by any security personnel instantly. Unlike most walk-through or gated metal detection systems, SafeHound detects full head-to-toe (75 inches) with light-up zones to pinpoint the area or zone of interest. The unit is fully sealed against the elements for rugged indoor and outdoor use. It contains a sealed gel cell internal rechargeable battery for a full day of continuous power anywhere if needed. SafeHound also features security key lock and dry trigger contacts for alarms, DVRs, video surveillance and intrusion detection systems as well as our popular WallHound-Pro Cell Phone Detector & Deterrent.

Can SafeHound detect all weapons?
No. SafeHound only detects weapons (and personal electronic devices) containing trace amounts of ferrous metals including cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, wrought iron and alloy steel. This includes most guns and knives. It does not trigger on aluminum, brass, bronze, gold, copper, silver or titanium.
What is the detection distance?
Typical detection distance between two poles is 48″. Detection outside of the poles is also possible using a different mode. Vertical detection is approximately 75″ from the ground up.
How does SafeHound prevent false triggers?
SafeHound sensor poles contain motion detectors that only sense ferrous material while passing between the poles.
How many detection zones are in a SafeHound portal?
SafeHound portal contains (12) detection zones, (6) in each sensor pole. Each zone on each side is approximately 12″ allowing security personnel to locate hidden weapons faster and safer.
Where is SafeHound use recommended?
SafeHound is recommended for any indoor or outdoor facility with a perimeter and guarded entrances. It can be used to scan for weapons at concerts, sporting events, schools, government and law enforcement facilities, court houses and more.
