Mobile Phone Detectors for Prisons
The Growing Threat of Illicit Mobile Phones in Prisons
Unauthorised mobile phones in prisons pose a serious security threat. Inmates could be coordinating drone contraband drop-offs or overseeing organised crime from their cell. Witness intimidation, drug and weapon smuggling and threats and blackmail can all be conducted from their phone, without surveillance. Traditional detection methods such as manual searches and metal detectors struggle to significantly reduce the amount of phones in circulation. Phones can be easily hidden in areas that evade these methods, and with the rise of smaller, non-metallic devices, detection becomes even more challenging.
Don’t rely on random searches
Mobile phone detectors are a game-changer in prison management. They are extremely effective in identifying and locating mobile phone usage, allowing you to maintain order, enhance safety and prevent illegal communications. Instead of time-consuming random searches, you can quickly scan large areas of the prison for signals at any time and then find and remove the phones from your prison.
