Quick-Q®
Optional settings filter out cell phones while detecting mass casualty weapons.
200 SENSITIVITY LEVELS
Paragon offers 23+ programs, each adjustable to 200 sensitivity levels, allowing it to ignore everyday items while still detecting weapons.
SECURE CROSSPIECES
Both the detection head and crosspiece feature key-lock security to prevent tampering.

ZERO TOUCH™
The NFC card reader enables security equipment setting adjustments without mechanical insertion, reducing wear and minimizing card replacements.
TDF
Time of Flight magnetic field sensors accurately detect both the presence of individuals and their movement direction through the walkthrough portal.
66 ZONES
Paragon sets the standard in metal detection technology with an industry-leading 66 detection zones, providing precise left/center/right identification of metal objects across 22 horizontal bands. This high-resolution detection enhances the screening process, allowing security personnel to quickly and efficiently locate threats during secondary screening without losing focus on the checkpoint.
Maximize security in high-risk areas with Zone Boost. Paragon’s 22 horizontal bands in walk-through metal detectors are independently adjustable, offering precise control to meet the unique detection needs of your facility.

FLEXIBLE, DURABLE
INTEGRATED UPS
Internally-mounted emergency power ensures continuous operation in the event of accidental AC disconnect or power outage.
HIGH-VISIBILITY PACING LIGHTS
Allows patrons and staff to clearly see entry locations at large events.
CABINET STORAGE
Allows charging of handheld detector while not in use.

IP 65
Exacting construction provides protection from dust and moisture
SOPHISTICATED DESIGN
Paragon’s smooth and trim structure is as at-home in an office building as a stadium.
3 YEAR WARRANTY
See Warranty notice.
AMBISCAN™
With Ambiscan, a single detector performs the job of two. This advanced Paragon feature enables law enforcement and security personnel to set distinct sensitivity levels for incoming and outgoing traffic, reducing false alarms while ensuring the detection of concealed weapons entering and the protection of company property exiting.
- Halves the size of your security checkpoint.
- Eliminate user error from excess detectors or repeated settings changes.
- Reduce operator fatigue by only alarming on the targets or detection area you want to catch.


BILATERAL DETECTION
Paragon has dual transmit and receive capability in both panels, a Garrett industry exclusive.
- Paragon ensures evenly distributed detection across the walkthrough portal by maintaining a consistent electromagnetic field. Unlike single-sided detectors that experience falloff as transmit strength varies from left to right, Paragon eliminates this weakness, providing uniform detection of every metal item passing through.
- Paragon’s doubled perspective improves its ability to account for and eliminate the interference caused by other walkthroughs in close proximity
- Superior target analysis. Paragon’s bilateral screening is the electromagnetic equivalent of binocular vision, enhancing the ability of the detector to precisely identify and distinguish metal content within the portal.
