Summary of Equipment:
Vendor: (Key Right Security) Denver Colorado
CEIA provides metal detectors for the Secret Service and the U.S. Marshals Office.
• The PMD2 Walk through has a uniform detection field, very high discrimination, highly visible
display provides single or multiple location of weapons in transit.
> This detector provides Fast programming through the chip card system and photo cell
software for counting.
D. The walk through detector is calibrated initially by computer and allows for the sensitivity
to be adjusted to detect just large metal objects or down to small metal objects.
Y The chip card can be used to increase the sensitivity in seconds if necessary for higher
profile hearings. This sensitivity adjustment provides for more efficiency and
enhanced reliability in detection.
• CEIA PD 140VR Hand Held Detector can be used to detect weapons, detonators and small
pieces of metal.
➢ The bidirectional probe allows both sides to detect evenly. The batteries are rechargeable
• The Vendor (Key Right) in Denver provides training, installation and service.
Justification:
Metal detection equipment is the first line of defense for the Court facilities. The current metal detectors
have been in service over 10 years with significant use. New technology allows the operator to pinpoint
where metal is located and the sensitivity can be adjusted according to need. This new technology is
more precise and efficient, reducing processing time without compromising safety and security.

Justification: All courtrooms currently have panic alarms for court personnel to utilize in emergency
situations requiring immediate response from the Sheriff's Office. Responding officers go into the
courtrooms under these conditions essentially blind with very little information. Having cameras which
activate when a panic alarm is activated in a specific courtroom allows visual information to be transmitted
to the Sheriff's Office court holding area. This additional tool will provide valuable information to the
responding officers to adequately respond and defuse the situation in an efficient and safe manner. Upon
activation the video transmission is automatically recorded and can be preserved as evidence. This
proposal will provide video surveillance of the West Plaza courtrooms, stair wells security check point,
Centennial Center security check point, and juvenile waiting area.

request. Assessment and Points of Concern: The exterior (street facing) windows are translucent. This
feature inhibits staff from observing activities immediately outside the entrance to the facility. In addition,
the present office windows have been the target of repeated vandalism -improved surveillance could
reduce these attacks. The suggested resolution is to replace translucent windows with solarcool tinted,
laminated glass (two pieces of 3/16 inch thick glass laminated together) and the inside pane of glass will
be clear annealed (1/4 inch thick). This will allow staff to observe activities immediately outside the
entrance to the facility. The second deficiency is the lack of security cameras in and around the probation
offices located across the street from the Court Complex housing all other court operations.

Judicial District is no exception. This tool will assist the Sheriff's Office in providing safe and effective
control of high risk defendants. The BAND -IT can be discreetly placed under a shirt sleeve or a pant leg.
The current 2 BAND-ITs are approximately 12 years old and in need of being replaced. This device is
