Why speed lanes or turnstiles?
Security Enhancement
Speed lanes, also known as turnstiles or security gates, play a crucial role in controlling access by ensuring only authorized personnel with valid credentials can enter restricted areas. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access and often includes features to prevent tailgating, where unauthorized individuals follow those with legitimate access.
Safety Improvement
These systems are vital for managing crowds, especially in high-traffic areas, ensuring efficient processing and reducing the risk of overcrowding. Additionally, modern speed lanes are designed to provide quick and easy egress in emergencies, allowing for automatic unlocking or opening to facilitate rapid evacuations.
Visitor Management
Speed lanes streamline the check-in process for visitors, helping to reduce wait times and enhance their overall experience. Integrated with access control systems, they can log entry and exit times, aiding in record-keeping and guest list management.
Operational Efficiency and Appearance
Speed lanes improve operational efficiency by automating the verification of access credentials, reducing the need for manual checks. They also integrate with other security systems, such as CCTV and alarms, for a comprehensive security solution. Beyond functionality, their sleek, modern design enhances the building's appearance, contributing to a professional and polished entry point.
Types of turnstiles or speedlanes available
Half-Height Turnstiles or Speed Lanes
These are lower and more suitable for moderate security needs, suitable for indoor and outdoor installation. They typically consist of a rotating arms, flap barriers or glass panels that are about waist-high and is commonly used in commercial buildings and public transit systems.
Full-Height Turnstiles
These offer maximum security and are often used in high-security areas. They consist of a vertical rotating drum or barrier that extends from floor to ceiling, preventing unauthorized entry.
Both types of turnstiles can be integrated with various access control methods, such as key fobs, cards, and barcodes.
