Speed Gates are referred by various names some of which being, Flap Barrier, Swing Barrier, Speedstiles, High Door etc. These types of pedestrian Gates are Half-man height with two cabinets forming an aisle in between for movement of people. These are bi-directional gates with panels either in glass, polycarbonate, soft foam material etc. forming the obstruction in the middle of the lane so-as-to allow access through these systems into a facility only after authentication. These blocking panels in the middle of the lane may either swing, slide, retract in an arc into the system for the open and close movement during pedestrian access.
They may be deployed to control movement of people in a low security zone ideally monitored by CC-TV & physical guard/s. These gates under ideal condition of pedestrian access allow the access of only one person at a time. They may be deployed for controlling access at Production facilities, Office Buildings, Airports, Movie Theatre, Museum, Govt. Offices etc. They may be put into operation where-ever there is a need for controlling movement of people in large numbers. Considering they are quite aesthetic in their appeal in comparison to Tripod Turnstiles.
They may be integrated with varied authorisation protocols viz. Proximity Card; Bar Code; QR Code; Varied Bio-metric & Camera based authenticating devices etc.
They are offered with motors for the opening and closing movement of the blocking panels in the middle of the system.
