What Are Turnstiles and Why Are They Important?

Turnstiles are mechanical or electronic barriers that allow entry to only one person at a time after proper authentication. When integrated with your access control system, turnstiles serve as the first physical line of defense against unauthorized access.

Why turnstiles are essential:
  • ✅ Deter unauthorized entry and reduce tailgating

  • ✅ Ensure only one authorized person can pass at a time

  • ✅ Enforce credential-based access (card, PIN, biometric, etc.)

  • ✅ Seamlessly integrate with surveillance and alarm systems

  • ✅ Maintain visitor logs and generate reports

  • ✅ Improve lobby or facility traffic management

  • ✅ Enhance aesthetics with modern, sleek design options
