Types of Turnstile Systems We Install
Tripod Turnstiles
Tripod turnstiles use three rotating arms to create a controlled pedestrian entry point and are commonly used at employee and restricted entrances. Magnetic tripod systems support bidirectional passage and can be connected with electronic access control equipment.
Swing Gate Turnstiles
Swing pedestrian gates provide a wider controlled passage and can accommodate wheelchair users, visitors with luggage and the movement of materials. They are useful alongside standard turnstile lanes and at entrances that require greater passage width.
Optical & Wing Turnstiles
Optical and wing-style pedestrian gates provide fast, automated access for busy entrances such as office lobbies and institutional buildings. Integrated sensors monitor passage through the lane and help identify unauthorized entry.
Pedestrian Passageway Systems
Automated pedestrian passageways are suitable for facilities that need to process higher volumes of employees or visitors. Systems can support different passage widths and integration with card readers, biometric scanners and other access control technology.
Card Reader Pedestals
Reader pedestals provide a convenient location for access credentials where mounting a reader directly to the turnstile is not practical. They can be positioned alongside pedestrian gates and configured for compatible card or credential readers.
Identity Verification Gates
Automated identity verification gates are available for specialized facilities that require a higher level of credential or identity verification. Secure Alarms can assess the entrance and supporting security infrastructure to determine the appropriate configuration.
Integrate Turnstiles With Your Access Control System
Turnstiles can work as part of a larger access control system, allowing authorized employees and visitors to enter while restricting access for everyone else.
Depending on the system and facility requirements, we can integrate turnstiles with:
RFID and key fob credentials
Biometric readers
Existing access control systems
Credential and identity verification technology
Already have an access control system? Secure Alarms can assess your current setup and determine how new pedestrian gates can be incorporated into the existing infrastructure.

Reduce unauthorized entry and tailgating
