Security hand held body scanners at Regton
Regton have supplied our range of hand held bodyscanner metal detectors to a wide variety of organisations throughout the UK including schools, magistrates courts and crown courts, police stations, shipping companies and a whole range of warehouses and retail outlets for loss prevention. Our most recent high profile recipient was British Transport Police to help with operation shield, their anti knife initiative at a number of British railway stations. This operation has proved how versatile the Garrett walkthrough metal detectors are. The Garrett PD6500i has been deployed all over the UK powered by batteries for enhanced portability at a number of railway stations to cut down knife related crime. The launch of operation shield in February 2006 resulted in 20,00 people being scanned, with over 160 weapons being recovered and 150 arrests being made targeting late night crime and anti social behaviour at railway stations.
