ZT-826 Full Height Turnstile Gate Bidirectional Access Control

ZT-826 Bi-directional Security Full Height Turnstile Gate for Construction Site/ Stadium 

Full-height turnstiles are a robust and highly secure form of access control. Their key characteristics differentiate them from other types of turnstiles and make them the ideal choice for high-security applications.

1. Height and Physical Barrier
The most defining characteristic is their full-height design. Standing from floor to ceiling (typically over 7 feet tall), they form a complete, enclosed barrier. This physical design effectively prevents unauthorized entry by:

Anti-climb: Full height turnstile virtually impossible for a person to climb over the rotating barrier.

Anti-crawl: Full height turnstile enclosed structure and rotating rods prevent people from crawling underneath.

Anti-tailgating: Full height turnstile single-person-per-rotation design ensures that only one person can pass for each verified credential, eliminating the risk of someone sneaking in behind an authorized user.

2. Durability and Construction
Full-height turnstiles are built to withstand harsh conditions and heavy use.

Material: Full-height turnstiles are typically made from durable materials like galvanized steel, powder-coated steel, or stainless steel (often 304 or 316 for enhanced corrosion resistance), making them resistant to vandalism and tampering.

Weatherproof: Full-height turnstiles robust construction makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, able to withstand rain, snow, and extreme temperatures.

Heavy-duty: Full-height turnstiles are designed for high-traffic environments, such as construction sites, stadiums, and industrial facilities, where they will endure constant use.

3. Integration with Access Control Systems
While full height turnstiles can be operated manually, their real power lies in their ability to integrate with various access control systems.

Credential Compatibility: full height turnstiles can be seamlessly integrated with different authentication methods, including card readers, biometric scanners (fingerprint, facial recognition), PIN keypads, and RFID tags.

Directional Control: full height turnstiles can be configured for bi-directional or uni-directional access, controlling both entry and exit.

Data and Monitoring: When connected to an access control system, they provide valuable data on traffic flow, time and attendance, and can be monitored in real-time.

4. Safety and Reliability Features
Modern full-height turnstiles include several features to ensure safety and reliability.

Emergency Release: Full-height turnstiles often have an emergency override or "fail-safe" mechanism that allows them to unlock and provide a clear exit path during a power failure or emergency.

Safety Sensors: Some models full-height turnstiles are equipped with sensors to prevent the arms from closing on a person.

Battery Backup: Integrated batteries can provide power for a set number of cycles during an outage, ensuring continued operation.

5. Types and Configurations
Full-height turnstiles come in various configurations to suit different needs.

Single vs. Tandem: A single unit handles one lane of traffic, while a tandem unit combines two turnstiles in a single frame, making it a space-saving solution for controlling two lanes.

ADA Compliant: Dedicated ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant gates with wider passage widths can be installed next to turnstiles to ensure accessibility.

Rotor Design: The rotating mechanism can have different arm configurations (e.g., three or four-wing rotors) depending on the desired security level and flow speed.

 
Full height turnstile Function:

• Through the built-in small press disk on the main control board, the running state of the programmable device.

• Unique two-way anti-inversion function

• anti-scour function, when the opening signal is not received, the channel bar will be locked automatically.

• the channel is automatically unlocked after the power is cut off, and the function of free rotation can meet the requirements of fire fighting, and the channel is locked and closed automatically after the power is turned on.

• with automatic reset function, after opening the gate, when pedestrians do not pass within a specified period of time, the system will automatically cancel the pedestrian traffic authority, and the reset time is 1S~60S adjustable (the default time of the system is 10s).
