What Are Touchless Turnstiles?
Touchless turnstiles barrier are physical access control systems designed for people to pass through hands-free. Utilizing technology like optical beam detection and motorized barriers, these turnstiles identify credentials to open a lane for access and are also commonly known as speed gates or ADA gates.
Optic turnstiles are visually appealing and easily integrate with other security systems for additional protection, making them suitable for reception areas, lift lobbies and public transportation services.
Easy to Operate
Touchless turnstiles feature motorized barriers that move out of the way automatically and without human interaction, enabling people to enter through entrance lanes while satisfying social distancing requirements established by facilities – making these units ideal for hospitals and healthcare facilities.
These hands-free turnstiles offer many advantages to help your facility better manage its security, including increased entrance security and higher throughput efficiency. Utilizing optical scanners and sensors to detect passing pedestrians, these automatic turnstile gates can also be integrated with other security devices like temperature checks, facial recognition software or proximity card readers for additional layers of protection against identity theft and other forms of fraud.
The rS turnstile is an ideal solution for high-security entry control in industrial, critical infrastructure, and government facilities. Additionally, healthcare facilities can take advantage of it to comply with pandemic-related hospital protocols regarding hygienic entry and exit.
RS security turnstiles provide secure, durable and versatile access control systems with a fully automated solution. Equipped with a HD image capture screen to verify user identification and configured to recognize multiple credentials such as employee badges or RFID cards – as well as equipped with battery backup in case of power outage – these turnstiles offer full automation in terms of access control systems.
Reduced Risk of Cross-Contamination
Touchless systems differ from manual turnstiles by automatically verifying users and permitting access. This eliminates the need for security guards to check every person who enters, reducing labor costs while contributing to more efficient operations and decreasing risk of viral transmission at the point of entry.
Most touchless turnstiles feature anti-tailgating measures to deter unauthorized entry. This may involve optical beam detection or pressure sensors – though expensively implemented – which will help avoid viruses and pathogens spreading throughout your facility.
As another measure to prevent tailgating, consider installing proximity cards, face recognition software or temperature checking devices with your turnstile system. Not only can these add extra layers of protection help ensure only authorized users enter, they also detect any unauthorised attempts and alert security staff of suspicious entries for further investigation.
To further reduce risks associated with tailgating and other unapproved entry, some touchless turnstiles feature emergency release mechanisms that override lane locking mechanisms to quickly exit in an emergency situation ensuring venue safety.
Increased Throughput Efficiency
Traditional turnstiles provide effective access control in and out of facilities, while touchless versions take it a step further by eliminating the need for people to reach into their pockets or purses to retrieve a card, swipe it in a specific manner and wait for a beep when passing through an entryway. By eliminating such steps altogether, your entryway becomes faster while maintaining high levels of pathogen protection.
Increase throughput efficiency and productivity while simultaneously improving user experience – which is particularly crucial during periods of peak traffic. Reduce staff requirements at entrances while increasing staffing levels elsewhere within your facility.
Touchless turnstiles can easily integrate with various biometric security products, including facial recognition, fingerprint, iris and vascular recognition technologies to offer visitors a truly hands-free experience. You could even consider using dual technology solutions such as RS Security Co.,Ltd’s Speedlane Turnstile or Swing Turnstile which combine fingerprint and facial recognition solutions – one way of eliminating at least one point of contact!
Touchless turnstiles can also be configured to release their barriers in an emergency, providing people on the secured side a means to leave quickly if an evacuation becomes necessary – an especially helpful feature in venues like sports stadiums, public transportation terminals and office buildings where providing safe egress is of utmost importance for safety and efficiency.
touchless turnstiles Easy Integration
Touchless turnstiles provide users with an alternate method for authenticating themselves through an overhead sensor. Once validated, the system then activates motorized barriers without needing physical user input to open and close, leaving lanes clear so people can simply walk through to enter or exit your premises without risk of pathogen spread and making life simpler for visitors, employees or patrons alike.
Full-height touchless turnstiles provide a visual deterrent that helps prevent unauthorized entry and discourage would-be intruders, making them ideal for high security locations such as airports, stadiums and public transportation stations where robust security infrastructure is essential. Furthermore, full-height gates with this capability allow integration with temperature sensors or hand sanitizer units for an all-in-one hands-free security solution.
RS Security Co.,Ltd’s turnstiles are easily integrated with numerous security systems and offer a comprehensive selection of access credential support, from basic mobile credentials to more complex options like Fastlane Connect for visitor management software platform management and monitoring up to 63 lanes of optical turnstiles easily remotely from a computer.
As part of our dedicated service offerings, we also provide inputs for fire or life safety systems and outputs for ADA compliance to help your facility maintain proper security protocols even during power outages or emergencies. These features are especially essential in today’s post-COVID era when businesses must prioritize protecting the wellbeing of their employees, customers, students and patrons.
