Turnstiles - Strip Barrier

Turnstiles, in conjunction with strip barriers , facilitate controlled access. However, there are some differences between these two types of products. A turnstile controls any scanning, verification, or payment process required to gain access to a point. For example, if a turnstile is located above an entrance, it means that everyone who wants to enter must meet a certain requirement. This requirement is usually a cash payment. This system is most commonly used today for collecting fares at tram and metrobus stations.

Lane barriers , on the other hand, serve the purpose of indicating the appropriate route rather than preventing certain situations. For example, if one of two adjacent aisles is closed and the other is open, a barrier is placed in front of the closed aisle to indicate this.

Wall Type Strip Barrier

Wall-mounted strip barriers are approximately the size of your palm and feature a roll of tape on the inside. These barriers, commonly used on room doors, are screwed onto one end of the door. The roll of tape on the inside extends to the other end of the door and is attached to that side using the end section, securing the door with the barrier.

Wall-mounted barriers , as evidenced by the use of screws, are used for long-term warnings. For example, these products are not generally preferred for blocking access to a room or any other location for just a few hours. Mounted barriers are generally used in cases of long-term malfunctions or various emergencies.

Portable Barrier

Portable barriers, meaning they can be moved by hand, differ from the striped barriers used indoors. While striped barriers can also be mobile, portable barriers are high metal fences that police temporarily place on streets during riots. The purpose of these barriers is quite different from other types of barriers used indoors.

What are the uses of turnstile systems?

Turnstiles are among the most cost-effective access control systems. They enable the monitoring of any passage activity or the fulfillment of payment requirements. Turnstiles consist of various components found at the entrances of police stations or mosque restrooms, where security is paramount. Their primary purpose is to ensure control.

Toilet Turnstile System

Restroom turnstiles are located at the entrances to restrooms in wedding halls and similar public spaces. These turnstiles generally allow entry with a 1 TL coin, ensuring that the fees for public restroom use are maintained. For example, someone who hasn't paid can enter without the attendant noticing, but turnstiles completely prevent such mishaps. Anyone who hasn't paid the turnstile device can't turn the turnstile arm, no matter how hard they try, and thus cannot enter the restroom.

What are the Prices of Turnstiles and Strip Barriers?

Turnstiles may not be as inexpensive as strip barrier options. While the methods used for these products are similar, it's safe to say their costs vary widely. Furthermore, less expensive barriers don't provide as definitive a solution as turnstile systems . For example, someone who hasn't secured access to a location will never be able to turn the turnstile arm, and if the turnstile is high enough, they will never be able to overcome the obstacle in front of them. However, portable barriers only serve as a small warning, so they may not be effective in preventing any obstacles.
