Three Essential Safety Considerations for Selecting Turnstile Gates

Access control turnstile gates are very common in our daily lives. Common types include tripod turnstiles, swing turnstiles, flap turnstiles, full-height turnstiles, sliding turnstiles and so on. We are referring here to the access control turnstiles used for pedestrian's passage, not the vehicle barrier used in parking lots. Access control turnstile gates play a crucial role in ensuring the safety standards of important public places such as office buildings, schools, factories, customs, attractions, exhibition halls, supermarkets, government agencies, etc. Therefore, when choosing an access control turnstile gate for entry and exit, what security issues should be understood before purchase?

Personal security: guarantee of security for the passage of pedestrian

The function of the gate is to regulate the entry and exit of pedestrians. Mechanisms such as personnel trajectory and behavior recognition detection, anti-interference mechanisms for preventing unauthorized access, and emergency response handling in case of emergencies, all these aspects form the basis for ensuring the high security of pedestrian turnstile gate products.

The turnstile gates are equipped with a number of infrared detection points in different positions on the inner side of the passage. When pedestrians pass by, their bodies block the detection points. Multiple detection points can effectively identify the movement path and ticket-checking behavior of passing pedestrians.

The high quality pedestrian turnstile gate adopts a high-density matrix infrared detection system to determine the position area, status, direction of passage and the validity of the authorization check of pedestrians within the passage. It conducts calculations and analyses to make the corresponding judgments, thus guaranteeing the safety of pedestrians.

When the gate is closed and blocked by objects, the gate will become a free state immediately, which can effectively prevent gagging and injure passersby and ensure safety during pedestrian passage.

The equipment of the pedestrian turnstile gate must reserve the fire signal when the fire or blackout warning signal is received and other special conditions, the turnstile gate will open automatically, the rod will fall automatically, the formation of a barrier-free channel can quickly evacuate the crowd.

Performance security: turnstile gate with quality guarantee

When buying an access control turnstile gate, you need to know about the motor technology of the hardware of the pedestrian turnstile gate, Fault reset time, the rate of passage per unit of time of people, and the normal service life, etc.

When it comes to ensuring reliability, first and foremost are the important access systems. Ensures fast operating speed, low mechanical loss, precise positioning, stable operation and gate opening and closing time, etc.

Security : Basic Requirements for Access Control Turnstile Gates

When purchasing an access control turnstile gate , it is essential to have a thorough understanding of detection, blocking and alarm handling mechanisms of the pedestrian passage turnstile gate for illegal intruders, in order to prevent the entry of tailgating individuals and reverse entry.

The gate closes automatically after leaving the safety zone of the locking machine when an authorized person passes through it. However, it blocks the passage when an unauthorized person tries to follow the passage. In addition, an audible alarm and indicator light are emitted.

When the authorized personnel pass through the gate but remain within the security area, and there are people following who attempt to enter, we need to consider the safety of the personnel. If the gate is closed, it could cause injury. Therefore, at this time, it will not be closed. However, the turnstile gate will have sound alarms and indicator lights to alert our staff of any abnormal situations.
