Full-height turnstile for the strictest access control sites

The Carousel full-height turnstile physically prevents more than one person from passing through at the same time. The structure meters the flow so that each rotation is allowed for only one person. The turnstile cannot be bypassed by running or by holding it open for the next person. The version with a card reader checks the access right before opening and automatically logs the person, the time and the direction of passage. The fully enclosed mechanism is protected from weather and vandalism, and the cabling runs out of reach inside the frame structures. The illuminated passage and heating of the installation foundation ensure trouble-free operation in winter too.

Full-height turnstile or pedestrian gate, and when to choose Carousel

An ordinary pedestrian gate is enough when access needs to be restricted but precise people counting or a physical barrier is not required. The Carousel full-height turnstile is chosen for sites with higher security requirements, such as ports, airports, office buildings and sports arenas, where every person passing must be logged and unauthorised entry physically prevented. A pedestrian gate can be held open or passed quickly, but the structure of a full-height turnstile makes this impossible. Visitor counting and access control are combined in the same unit.

Mobile construction site model and bicycle version

The mobile Carousel is delivered to site fully ready for use without concrete casting or building work. It suits construction sites, event areas and temporary access control points where the turnstile is moved as the project progresses. The bicycle model extends its use to bicycle parking areas and storage facilities. The turnstile detects when a person has a bicycle with them and automatically opens the barrier arm away from the bicycle. Direction detection ensures the bicycle does not get stuck in the passage. Both versions integrate with existing access control systems.

Carousel integrations and system connections

The Carousel full-height turnstile is compatible with the most common access control systems. It connects to card reader, biometric or door entry phone systems, so that all passage events are transferred to a central log in real time. Integration allows access rights to be managed remotely. Rights can be added, removed or limited to time windows without a site visit. In office buildings and shopping centres, Carousel works as part of a comprehensive security system together with CCTV cameras and alarm systems.

Full-Height Turnstile Carousel, FAQ

How does a full-height turnstile prevent more than one person from passing at once?

The structure of the full-height turnstile physically meters the flow, with one rotation corresponding to one person. The barrier mechanism locks automatically after each passage, so the next person needs a new access authorisation.

Can a full-height turnstile be integrated into an access control system?

Yes. The version with a card reader is connected to the existing access control system. The turnstile automatically logs every passage, including who passed, when and in which direction.

Is the full-height turnstile suitable for outdoor use in Finnish conditions?

Yes. The fully enclosed mechanism protects it from weather and vandalism. Heating of the installation foundation is available to make winter use easier, and the cabling is protected inside the frame structures.

What is the advantage of the mobile construction site model?

Is a bicycle version of the full-height turnstile available?

Yes. The bicycle model detects a person with a bicycle and automatically opens the barrier arm away from the bicycle. Direction detection prevents the bicycle from getting stuck in the passage.
