Turntile gates are designed to serve as both visual and physical deterrents, limiting the number of people who pass at any one time through them. They can be configured for various modes such as free pass, controlled passage or lock down operation.
Optical Turnstiles
Optic turnstiles offer an innovative and secure method for managing access in sensitive environments. Unlike traditional turnstiles, optical turnstiles do not rely on physical barriers and instead utilize passive infrared beams that detect movement to detect movement triggered by valid credentials or tickets allowing entrance while blocking passage to those without authorization. They feature an attractive yet unobtrusive aesthetic while offering multiple security options tailored specifically for each environment.
Optical turnstiles can be found at many venues, from stadiums to mass transit stations, airports, office lobbies and ski resorts. Museums frequently employ them to track visitor numbers and analyze trends – they can even be configured to record visitors to individual exhibitions so as to monitor whether popularity is decreasing or increasing over time.
To ensure that a turnstile is installed correctly, it is crucial to understand its operation and the key components that comprise a fully functioning system. A typical optical swing turnstile consists of a cabinet housing electronics and access control integration; barrier arms which open or close depending on whether an authorized person passes; the cabinet connects via power lines, opening signal lines, and synchronization lines – each should be thoroughly inspected prior to installation to ensure everything meets specifications and works smoothly.
Though all turnstiles provide some level of security, choosing the most appropriate model for your environment depends on several considerations. Aesthetic considerations, traffic levels and your budget all need to be taken into account before selecting a turnstile solution. High security environments such as data centers may require dual barrier equipment while optical turnstiles offer both security and sleek design aesthetics for corporate lobbies or any environment that prioritizes both.
Smarter Security offers a full selection of optical turnstiles designed to meet both your security requirements and space-specific needs. Reach out today and speak with a specialist regarding how our advanced turnstiles can enhance your access control system.
Full Height Turnstiles
Full height turnstiles rise from the floor to above head height, providing a physical barrier and increasing security. Used most commonly at industrial sites or public transportation hubs where strict access control is necessary; full height turnstiles may also be utilized at sports stadiums or amusement parks to manage crowd flow and allow only authorized persons through. They come with either one-way or bi-directional access access depending on your level of control needs.
Advance access control systems offer seamless integration with advanced authentication methods like biometrics or card readers to enhance security and prevent any unauthorized entry or exit. By recording entry and exit data, establishments are able to monitor occupancy levels for compliance with safety regulations or capacity limits and can quickly respond to any incidents that arise.
These gate systems are built to withstand harsh environments and heavy usage, making them an excellent choice for high-security settings. Although their mechanical designs may generate some noise during operation, this can easily be reduced with proper maintenance. A good manufacturer should offer an ongoing service schedule that includes cleaning, lubricating and inspecting of mechanical and electrical components to prevent malfunctions from occurring.
When purchasing a full height turnstile, select one from a brand with an outstanding reputation and product portfolio that can meet your exacting requirements. Take into account factors like model specifications and materials used, aesthetic preferences, functionality and cost effectiveness as you make your choice. Inquire into manufacturer service policies as they can play an integral part in making sure the product you buy still meets those requirements long after sale.

Wall Mount Tripod Turnstiles
Wall mount tripod turnstiles are security gates designed to regulate the flow of people entering buildings and can be integrated with various ID solutions. Ideal when space is at a premium, wall mount tripod turnstiles can easily integrate into existing systems while being more affordable than their full height counterparts and suitable for multiple uses.
Tripod turnstiles are constructed of stainless steel and can be mounted either to walls or dedicated supports such as barriers and handrails for easy use in industrial enterprises, banks, administrative offices, shops, railway stations and airports to control access via badges, cards or biometric data. They can also be part of larger entry management systems using barcode or RFID readers.
This type of security turnstile is designed for easy installation and operation, and comes in various finishes. The housing typically made of stainless steel can be painted or brushed as desired and fitted with LED indicators which change color according to mode of operation.
Tripod turnstiles are ideal for medium-security environments, offering multiple card and ID technologies such as MIFARE and 125Khz badge readers as well as barcode or QR scanners for use. In both bidirectional and unidirectional modes, these turnstiles can also be set to restrict entry or exit.
These security turnstiles feature three stainless steel sticks as their blocking body. When activated by an opening signal, these three sticks rotate to let someone through. Their mechanical anti-tailgating design makes this type of turnstile more secure than others and it is frequently seen in office lobbies, stadiums, amusement parks scenic spots and transportation hubs.
Turntiles’ unique mechanical mechanism eliminates the need for computerized gate operators, which reduces operational and maintenance fees and costs. Furthermore, turnstiles can be configured to reject unauthorized entries and wrong direction entries; and are more compatible with building alarm systems than regular turnstiles. They may even be set to unlock in case of emergency and assist when egressing fire incidents or other safety emergencies arise.
ADA Compliant Turnstiles
Access control turnstiles that conform with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements can be constructed specifically for accessibility, such as barrier gates and height access lanes to allow those in wheelchairs or with other physical disabilities to enter without going through a security checkpoint in the main building. Such turnstiles are frequently found at stadiums, airports, transit stations as well as office buildings and industrial sites.
For entry at an entry point or lane, people must present valid access control credentials that unlock barriers at turnstiles and allow passage through them; then the system relocks. If they fail to present valid credentials, however, then the barriers remain locked down and an alert will be sent directly to the operator of that lane or entry point. An ADA gate may also work alongside biometric scanners or facial recognition cameras to help verify who enters.
As part of an entrance control system, it’s crucial that buildings carefully consider their layout size and expected traffic volume at peak times when deciding on how many lanes are necessary. High traffic areas may need more than one while smaller areas might do with two lanes only. Furthermore, you need to think about throughput rates required per minute per lane in order to ensure your turnstile can keep pace with anticipated patterns of travel within your organization.
Some turnstiles offer bidirectional operation, enabling people to open and close them from either direction. This option can help limit access to certain areas or ensure people leave in an orderly fashion when finished with one area.
Access control turnstiles come equipped with speed gates to assist with traffic flow management. These turnstiles can be especially beneficial in environments with strict aesthetic standards like universities and private schools, allowing people to move through quickly by using an access gate that bypasses barriers quickly – thus helping prevent long lines from forming while also decreasing risks such as wheelchairs getting caught on doors or barriers.
