Suitable for internal or external use in areas where there is a large and constant flow of people.
In order to regulate and control the flow of people into and out of buildings, Gunnebo offers a full range of turnstile solutions. We recognise the need for different solutions, depending on the level of security and freedom of movement required.
The main goal is to regulate the flow of people in the desired direction. In secure areas, such as offices or governmental departments, each
individual must be identified before entry is authorised. In sports stadia or airports, the entrance system must balance freedom of
movement with tight security. In other words, varying degrees of regulation and control, depending on location.
The SlimStile BA, our stainless steel compact version, offers high operating reliability in a small casework for wall-mounted or pedestal installation, ideal for sites where space is an issue.
On receiving a signal from the access control system, or push button, it allows the passage of one person at a time. The status is shown on the led-way mode indicators, in entry and exit side. Passage in both directions is electronically controlled.
Tripod Turnstiles are compact and cost-effective solutions, suitable for areas where there is a large flow of people. This product is a pedestal mounted stainless steel and aluminium tripod turnstile with a small footprint.
Ease of use, reliability and robustness are key benefits of this product. Passage in both directions is electronically controlled. Direction is shown clearly to users with indicators. Unit locking prevents simultaneous passage by two people.
Tripod Turnstiles are compact and cost-effective entrance solutions designed for smooth and silent operation, less wear and tear and reduced power consumption, suitable for areas where there is a large flow of people.
SlimStile EV offers a well-designed, two-legged casework made of stainless steel, ideal for sites where robustness is required as a result of large flows of people. A 316 grade stainless steel and outdoor version is available, IP44. A double version is also available.
SlimStile EV ATT (Alarmed Tripod Turnstile) offers the best security performance by means of a photocell and IR sensor alarming in case of unauthorised passage attempt. The system can be further enhanced by a sensitive lid and extra photocells with the ITC functionality (Improper Transit Control).
The ATT-ITC version avoids passage simulation and improves the overall performance for the detection of unauthorised passage detecting if someone tries to jump over or crawl under the tripod’s arms as well as if someone tries to climb over the cabinet.
Tripod turnstiles have been around almost as long as controlling access in high-traffic areas has been necessary. From public buildings of all shapes and sizes to private offices and even travelling fairs, everyone has encountered a tripod turnstile at some point in their life. Also known as baffle gates, waist-high or half-height turnstiles, these are one of the most affordable access control systems on the market today.
Tripod turnstiles get their names from the set of three rotating barrier arms that sit at waist height, and they are very effective at allowing only one person to pass at a time. They’re rugged, dependable and usually require very little maintenance. You can use a row of tripod turnstiles to form a multi-lane access control system that doesn’t slow down the flow of pedestrian traffic as people move from one area to another.
Tripod turnstiles are designed to be used in areas where there is adequate supervision or oversight from authorised personnel, as well as areas where there are little to no security risks. They vary in functionality and can be adapted to suit just about any project. This includes fully manual operation, added electronics that use card readers or biometric systems for access, as well as single or bi-directional operation.
They can eliminate the need to have attendants checking tickets or collecting fees at every entrance, and they also provide a fairly accurate way to count the number of pedestrians entering and leaving a facility. Another thing that makes tripod turnstiles so popular is that they can be easily customised to suit any décor style and can be integrated with any existing access control systems you may already have in place.
Tripod turnstile gates are a perfect method to achieve dissuasive automated access controls for sites with heavy use. At Gunnebo, our gates have been well built for increased durability and designed with the ability to efficiently control high throughput. They can be installed virtually anywhere, and there are even portable versions available for security on the move.
In short, they are a simple, economical, and compact piece of equipment that do exactly what they are meant to without any fuss. Contact our product experts today to find out about the range of low, medium and high security access control systems we have to offer. While many of our products are designed for pedestrian use, we also offer a range of access and security control measures against hostile vehicles.
