Garrett PD6500i · Operated by Shadow Agents · USSS Standard
Shadow Screening deploys the Garrett PD6500i walk-through metal detector: the same unit trusted by airports, federal courthouses, and major sporting venues worldwide. When your event requires certified screening, we don't rent you equipment and leave. We deploy it, operate it, and staff it with trained Shadow agents who understand the threat environment, not just the technology.
Every unit is tested, calibrated, and operated by a named Shadow agent. Whether you are running a private gala, a corporate summit, a political fundraiser, or a multi-day festival, Shadow Screening integrates directly into your access control and advance plan. The agent at the gate is the same agent who was briefed on your threat picture.
The Garrett PD6500i is the walk-through metal detector standard for federal protective operations in the United States, including USSS presidential advance deployments. Shadow brings that standard to private and commercial events.

The Garrett PD6500i is the walk-through metal detector standard for federal protective operations in the United States, including U.S. Secret Service presidential advance deployments, and the same unit trusted by airports, federal courthouses, and major sporting venues worldwide. AI-powered screening on Evolv or CEIA proprietary equipment optimizes for stadium volume, with an algorithm as the operator and system logs for accountability. Shadow Screening optimizes for the event: a named Shadow agent operates each unit and is on the record.
Up to 900 individuals per hour per unit. The PD6500i has 33 pinpoint zones that identify where on the body a detected item sits, which reduces secondary screening time and keeps the entry flow moving. Threat discrimination separates firearms, knives, and other metallic threat items from harmless objects, so there are fewer false alarms. The unit is weather resistant for indoor and outdoor deployment and meets ADA accessibility requirements.
Private galas and estate events, corporate conferences and executive summits, concert tours and festival access points, red carpet arrivals and awards productions, motorsport paddock and VIP access, political events, fundraisers, and rallies, houses of worship and schools, and any venue requiring certified access control screening. Deployment is available 24/7, and the units are engineered to operate reliably in heat, humidity, and variable conditions.
Every access point is a threat vector. Shadow closes it. Initial conversations are confidential and reviewed by leadership.
