What is a Turnstile?

A turnstile is a mechanical entry device that helps control passage from one area to the next. A turnstile could either be a full-size door, a small gate, or an optical beam, with ADA options available for handicapped persons. Turnstiles can be a great way to enforce traffic in your facility by allowing only one person access at a time


Why Do I Need A Turnstile?

Turnstiles can be the perfect barrier to help control traffic in and out of your building or event that you may currently be in charge of. They also reduce the number of employees you may need to watch an entrance or accept tickets. Many turnstiles have the option to have a ticket, coin, or scan option. So with a turnstile, you could reduce a five-man job down to one. Turnstiles have been used in a vast array of places such as stadiums, parks, museums, mass transit stations, office lobbies, retail stores, cafes, temporary exhibits, resorts, casinos, and even souvenir stands. In short, if you have an area that has a mass amount of people going from one location to another, turnstiles would be perfect for you.
