Project Spotlight: Access Control Turnstiles at the Mizzou Rec Center.

TurnstilesTurnstiles. You see them everywhere.

Do you ever think to yourself, “Come on with this line! If we didn’t have these silly turnstiles only allowing one person in at a time, we could get through this line quicker.” Well, there’s a reason for this. A very good reason, especially in your schools and on campus.

Turnstiles prevent potential incidents from happening to college students every day.

They’re considered the first line of defense against an unauthorized guest. The benefit of having turnstiles on campus is that they can be integrated with access control systems to regulate who or what can get into areas or use resources. Access control systems protect the entrances and exits with mag strips for card reading that will work with the student’s school badges to make sure that students are entering one person at a time.

There are built in LEDs in the glass of the turnstile that changes colors based on a successful or failed swipe of their access card.

We’ve been working with Chris James and the Mizzou Recreational Department for this project. They believe this will be a great asset to the  Recreational Center, and they find it very valuable for the safety of the students!

Do you need updated turnstiles to control access to areas in your building? Give us a call to talk about what’s possible!
