You are aware that you must maintain control over the individuals in your institution. So, how can you choose the right secure turnstile? Although there is much to consider, the process is made easier by being aware of the budget and final objective. Here are some straightforward ideas that make choosing a turnstile a breeze.
Your Budget: It should go without saying, but you must consider your budget when choosing the secure turnstile, handicap turnstile, and installation. Do you have access control on site (such as database software, staff RFID cards, etc.) and is this a part of a larger project? Being aware of this will assist you in making your choice.
Your requirements: Do you require a full-height turnstile or waist-high turnstile?
Full height turnstile gates are intended for more secure locations, including those where constant surveillance may not be available or where you don’t want someone to try to “sneak” past. Afterward, you must decide whether to choose stainless steel, powder-coated steel, or galvanized steel depending on the project’s intended use and the location of installation (inside or outside).
Waist high turnstiles are sometimes regarded as being appropriate for circumstances that are closely watched or for honest individuals, who won’t attempt to climb over them. Waist-high turnstiles are undoubtedly useful and may be perfect for public spaces like lunchrooms, fitness clubs, and lobby areas. Try asking yourself these questions. Do you plan to use them to restrict entry to those who have identification? Will their sole purpose be to tally the number of individuals passing through? Do you require them to be movable or fastened down? Do you require optical turnstiles that can sound an alert in the event that someone is crawling or piggybacking beneath the turnstile barrier? When beginning the choosing process, these are some of the most crucial questions to ask first.
ADA access should not be overlooked. It’s important to keep in mind that those who require special accommodations must have their access needs met, whether they are waist high or full height. That entails evaluating your facility to see if ADA compliance is currently in place or if it would be necessary to consider it for your upcoming project. We can provide you with information on ADA-accessible gates and secure turnstiles.
Special difficulties arise with ADA access control. Customers can move freely via both full height security gates and ADA waist high turnstile gates. ADA turnstile gates, also known as waist-high ADA turnstiles, feature a curving arm that is 36–40 inches long and must fully open to provide the necessary access for people who require it.
Since these devices lack optical detection, several people may be able to enter the resultant open area with a single ID swipe. A camera system or ADA waist-high turnstiles should be placed where there is some level of surveillance, like next to a guard desk, since this might jeopardize security and make a counting device useless.
The handicap turnstile JDBZ-21, which can regulate passage and features sensors that will sound an alert if someone enters the lane without a valid credential, is a good option if you want more security measures for waist-high ADA access. They regulate and strive to stop “piggybacking,” which is when two or more individuals attempt to enter using only one legitimate ID or credential. They also provide distinctive design features, such as the capability of laser engraving business logos into the panels, which is a striking addition for our clientele who have utilized them in cruise ships and business lobbies.
