Traditional metal detectors cannot adequately address the unique security challenges of religious institutions. Sanctuaries, fellowship halls, and main entrances serve families, elderly members, children, and visitors carrying bags, religious texts, phones, keys, and personal belongings that trigger constant alerts on walk-through metal detectors.

This creates a choice between security and maintaining a welcoming atmosphere. Volunteer security teams either spend excessive time manually screening each alert, or they begin ignoring alerts altogether, defeating the purpose of security screening.

Modern AI-powered weapons detection solves this problem. These systems distinguish between everyday items like bags, laptops, tablets, baby supplies, and religious materials from actual threats. Congregants, visitors, and families move through screening at a natural walking pace without divesting personal belongings.

The result is effective security screening that doesn’t compromise your welcoming environment or create bottlenecks during peak arrival times. Volunteers can focus on greeting members rather than managing security queues, while your community maintains the protection congregants deserve.

A weapons detection system for religious institutions screens individuals entering your facility for concealed weapons while allowing religious texts, personal belongings, bags, and everyday items to pass through without alerts. These systems use AI-powered detection to identify genuine threats rather than simply responding to any metal object.

Modern weapons detection systems for faith communities process congregants, visitors, and families at natural walking speeds without requiring divestment of bags or pockets. This maintains the welcoming atmosphere essential to your mission while providing security teams with accurate threat information.

Walk-through metal detectors alert on any metal object, creating constant interruptions when families arrive with bags, children’s items, religious materials, phones, keys, and personal belongings. Volunteer security teams must manually check each alert, creating bottlenecks during peak arrival times before services.

Xtract One’s AI-powered weapons detection distinguishes between threatening items and everyday objects. The system identifies concealed weapons while ignoring laptops, tablets, bags, baby supplies, and personal belongings that congregants routinely carry.

Xtract One Gateway screens both the individual and their carried bags simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate bag checks or X-ray machines. SmartGateway processes individuals at a natural walking pace without divestment requirements. Both systems provide security screening without disrupting your welcoming environment or creating the delays associated with traditional metal detectors.

Xtract One systems are designed to be unobtrusive. Congregants walk through at their normal pace without stopping, removing items, or opening bags. There are no bins, no checkpoint procedures, and no invasive searches that make families feel like they’re entering an airport.

Security interventions occur only when the system detects actual threats. Your volunteers can focus on greeting members and visitors rather than managing security lines or manually checking routine items. First-time visitors experience your welcoming atmosphere without intrusive security procedures that might discourage them from returning.

The technology maintains safety without changing the experience you’ve worked to create.

Xtract One systems are designed for simplicity. Volunteer security teams can operate the technology with minimal training. The tablet interface provides clear alerts only when genuine threats are detected, eliminating the constant false alerts that overwhelm volunteers using traditional metal detectors.

Our training program covers system operation, alert response, and basic troubleshooting. Most volunteer teams are comfortable operating the system after a single training session. Remote support is available whenever questions arise.

The systems require no daily calibration, no technical maintenance by your team, and no security expertise to operate effectively.
