In 2025, the integration of metal detectors in Las Vegas residential projects has become essential for enhancing security in high-value homes. Installation costs range from $650 to $1,200 per opening, depending on specifications and site conditions. This trend is driven by the need for advanced security measures in luxury properties, whether constructing new homes in Summerlin or retrofitting existing structures. Professional builders can leverage AI-driven platforms to streamline estimates and installations, ensuring compliance and efficiency.
• Walkthrough detectors are a standard requirement for luxury entries.
• Insurers may offer premium reductions for certified detection systems.
• Compliance with HOA bylaws often mandates weapon-screening technology.
Metal detectors serve diverse purposes beyond entry security. They are used for on-site verification of rebar patterns, identification of hidden conduits, and detection of lost fasteners, reducing change orders and enhancing safety.
