What is Full height turnstile?
Full height turnstile is a modern, economical, practical, high-security access control device. It is commonly used in areas where enhanced security and strict control over access are essential. They provide an effective means of preventing unauthorized entry or exit. They extend from the floor to above head height, creating a secure enclosure. Full height turnstile can provide maximum protection for pedestrian access control.
As a common type of pedestrian access control turnstile gate, the ss full height turnstile gate generally has stronger security performance than other types of turnstiles(tripod turnstile gate, swing turnstile gate, flap barrier turnstile, speed gate turnstile, and sliding turnstile), because it looks strong and tall in appearance, and has a high and wide door compared with the ordinary turnstile gate.
Main turnstile components: turnstile mechanism, 316 or 304 stainless steel chassis, 3 or 4 rotating rods, column, guardrail, motor, turnstile controller, etc.
The common full-height turnstiles are single-lane or dual-lanes. Three lanes and four lanes can be customized according to customer needs. It can be used in all kinds of building environments and can solve all control problems of pedestrian entrance and exit passages, control whether the gate is locked or unlocked at any time, and up to 20 signal interfaces to facilitate users to expand special functions.
