Turnstile Security Solutions
Efficient, Secure, and Scalable Pedestrian Access Control for Your Business
At North York Commercial Access Control Service, we specialize in designing and installing advanced turnstile systems for commercial, industrial, institutional, and high-security environments. Our goal is to give you control over foot traffic while enhancing security, efficiency, and compliance in your facility.
Turnstiles are a powerful first line of defense—limiting unauthorized access, tracking user entry, and ensuring that only the right people are entering the right spaces. Whether you operate an office tower, factory, school, stadium, or government facility, we’ll help you choose the right turnstile solution to match your space, budget, and operational goals.
Why Your Facility Needs Turnstiles
Traditional doorways and manned entry points can be inefficient, costly, and vulnerable to unauthorized access. Turnstile systems provide:
Controlled Access: Only authorized personnel can pass through, reducing tailgating and intrusion risks.
Integrated Authentication: Pair with access cards, mobile credentials, biometrics, or QR codes.
Audit Trails: Monitor who enters your space and when with digital logs.
Improved Flow Management: Speed up entry for authorized users while controlling high-traffic areas.
Reduced Staffing Costs: Unattended operation lowers the need for front desk personnel.
Enhanced Security: Physical barriers combined with smart tech stop breaches before they begin.
Types of Turnstiles We Offer
We carry a wide variety of turnstiles to suit your unique operational environment. Whether you need basic entry control or advanced biometric-secured barriers, we’ve got you covered.
🔹 Tripod Turnstiles
Cost-Effective Pedestrian Access Control
Tripod turnstiles are compact, reliable, and perfect for controlling access to gyms, office buildings, public transportation, and commercial lobbies. They allow one person to pass per entry and prevent tailgating effectively. Options include card readers, mobile credential integrations, and ticketing systems.
🔹 Full-Height Turnstiles
Maximum Physical Security
Ideal for high-security facilities such as data centers, factories, stadiums, or government buildings, full-height turnstiles prevent climb-over or crawl-under entry. These units provide an impenetrable barrier and are often used outdoors or in perimeter settings.
🔹 Optical Turnstiles
Speed, Aesthetics, and High Throughput
Sleek and fast, optical turnstiles use infrared sensors to detect entry and exit. Often used in corporate headquarters, hotels, and lobbies, these are ideal for areas where speed and modern design are priorities. Some feature sliding glass barriers or flap gates for added security.
🔹 Swing Gates & ADA Compliant Turnstiles
Accessible and Stylish Entry Control
For wheelchair users and accessible entry, swing gates provide wider passage. We offer models that integrate seamlessly with other turnstile types and comply with AODA standards in Ontario.
🔹 Waist-High Turnstiles
Standard for Commercial and Industrial Settings
Durable and easy to use, waist-high turnstiles are a classic solution for controlled pedestrian flow. With access control system integration, these units are perfect for factories, warehouses, sports arenas, and schools.
