Electronic portal for controlling the entry and exit of individuals and employees
Access control gates (Turnstiles & Speed Gates) are the cornerstone of modern facility security, ensuring the organized movement of individuals and their accurate, automated identity verification.
Here is a comprehensive guide to the types of these gates and the technologies used in them:
Types of Individual Entry and Exit Gates
The gates vary based on the nature of the place and the required security level:
1. Speed Gates
These are the most elegant and advanced, often used in high-end companies and administrative buildings. They feature glass arms that slide or open to allow only one person to pass.
2. Tripod Turnstiles
This is the most common and economical type, consisting of three rotating metal arms. Suitable for high-density areas like metros, sports clubs, and factories.
3. Full Height Turnstiles

These provide the highest level of security, resembling a "cage" and cannot be jumped over or passed under. They are typically used in military facilities, prisons, and sensitive industrial areas.
Identity Verification Technologies (Access Control Systems)
These gates are linked to electronic systems for identifying employees or visitors, most notably:

Face Recognition: Currently the fastest and most secure method, requiring no contact.
Fingerprint: A traditional and effective method for tracking attendance.
Smart Cards (RFID Cards): Used for employees and visitors by swiping the card on the reader.
QR Codes: Ideal for temporary visitors, as the code is sent to their mobile phone.
Benefits of Installing Electronic Gates for Facilities
1. Attendance Tracking: Direct integration with Human Resources (HR) systems for accurate report generation.
2. Preventing Unauthorized Access: Ensures no unauthorized person enters (Tailgating Prevention).
3. Crowd Management: Smoothly manages the flow of individuals during peak hours.
4. Real-time Statistics: Provides the number of people inside the building at any moment (very useful in emergencies).
