X-ray & Metal Detector Hire in Ireland

Our fleet crosses to Ireland regularly, and our engineers cross with it. Short-term and long-term hire of X-ray machines, walk-through metal detectors and complete checkpoints — from a single day to a full season, delivered with our Irish partner where local knowledge matters.

Proof, not promises

What We've Screened In Ireland

Ireland is not a map pin on this page. It is where one of our largest single deployments happened, and where the fleet has been back more than once.

  • Amgen Irish Open 2026, Doonbeg: more than 70 systems — over 35 X-rays and over 35 walk-through detectors — across park and ride sites, on-course search areas and offsite screening in County Clare, with engineers resident locally for the whole tournament — read the case study
  • NFL international games at Croke Park, Dublin: checkpoint screening on gameday discipline, part of a run of NFL venues across Europe — read the case study
  • Delivered with Pulse Security Management, our Irish partner, where an operation needs local knowledge of the ground and the agencies involved

Everything travels from a fleet of more than 300 systems we own outright, tested before it leaves and commissioned in position when it lands.

How it works here

Planned Around The Crossing

1

Longer lead times, honestly

Irish hires are planned around shipping, so think days and weeks rather than same day. We would rather say that up front than miss a gate opening.

2

Our engineers travel

The people who build the checkpoint come with it and stay for the duration. At Doonbeg they were resident locally all week.

3

Operators if you need them

Trained operators supplied with the equipment, or we set up and brief your own team and stay contactable throughout.

Hire runs from a single day to a full season. For anything spread across multiple sites, get us involved early — the design work is what makes a distributed checkpoint behave like one.

Ireland Hire Questions

Do you actually ship screening equipment to Ireland, or subcontract it?

We ship our own fleet and send our own engineers. For the 2026 Amgen Irish Open at Doonbeg we staged and shipped more than 70 systems from the UK to the west coast of Ireland, distributed them across park and ride sites and on-course search areas, and kept engineers resident locally for the whole tournament.

Delivery in Ireland is planned around the crossing, so lead times are longer than a mainland job — days and weeks rather than same day. The Doonbeg case study sets out how that one was run.

Can you cover an event outside Dublin?

Yes — our largest Irish deployment to date was in County Clare, not Dublin. Screening was spread across park and ride sites, on-course search areas and offsite points for the Amgen Irish Open.

Rural and coastal sites bring their own problems: temporary power, marquee flooring, Atlantic weather and crowds arriving by bus rather than on foot. Those are design questions, and we work them through before anything ships.

Who do you work with in Ireland?

We deliver alongside Pulse Security Management, our Irish partner, on operations that need local knowledge of the ground, the suppliers and the agencies involved. RedteQ supplies the equipment and the technical cover; Pulse bring the operational knowledge on the ground.

For straightforward equipment hire you can also deal with us directly — tell us the dates and the location.
