Barrier style optical turnstiles provide an increased level of security by means of a physical barrier.  The barriers are normally extended, then retract into the turnstile housing when a valid card signal is received from the card access systems.  

The barriers remain in the retracted position while the person passes through the lane, then reset to the extended position when the lane is cleared.   

A barrier bypass function allows the turnstiles to operate barrier-free to accommodate heavy traffic or emergency situations.

Our barrier-style turnstiles enable you to maintain complete control of access to your facility while reducing security personnel costs.  All models feature tailgate detection and interface with virtually all card readers and access control systems. 

All dual-barrier models are ADA compliant. Both swing arm and retractable wing barriers are available.
