# Metal Detector Prices in Kenya: Walk-Through and Hand-Held Detectors

Metal detectors screen visitors at schools, offices, events and entrances.

Smoke reaches sleeping people long before they see flames.

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Match the product to your real need before price.
- Check warranty and local service support.
- Buy from a supplier that installs and supports it.

Quick answer

Metal detectors screen visitors at schools, offices, events and entrances. Hand-held wands are low cost; walk-through frames suit high traffic. Check zones, sensitivity settings and battery or mains power.
