Turnstiles

Used to manage and control pedestrian access, turnstiles provide a structured method of entry within secure environments. Croma Fire & Security supplies turnstiles for commercial buildings, transport hubs, and leisure facilities where controlled access and monitoring are required. These systems help regulate movement while maintaining a clear and organised flow of people.

Turnstile Installation

Every installation begins with an evaluation of the site layout, access points, and expected foot traffic. This process allows our engineers to determine the most suitable positioning and configuration for each turnstile. All turnstiles are installed in accordance with current safety standards and are set up to operate reliably within the environment.

Features

Turnstile Operation

Designed for controlled entry, a turnstile allows one person to pass at a time through a rotating barrier system. Operation can be managed manually or through integration with electronic access systems.

This controlled movement supports accurate monitoring of individuals entering or exiting a designated area.

Access Control Integration

By connecting turnstiles to access control systems, entry can be restricted to authorised users. Methods such as card readers, biometric systems, or QR code scanners can be used to permit access.

This integration supports secure entry management while maintaining a record of user activity.

Design and Configuration

Available in a range of formats, turnstiles can be selected to match the layout and requirements of the site. Options include tripod, full height, and glass panel designs depending on the level of security and visual preference.

Each turnstile is configured to align with the operational needs of the facility.

Safety Features

To support safe operation, turnstiles are fitted with safety mechanisms that respond to user movement. These may include controlled rotation, emergency release functions, and obstruction detection.

Such features help ensure safe passage while maintaining controlled access.

System Integration

Turnstiles can be incorporated into wider security systems, allowing data to be shared across connected platforms. This enables coordinated monitoring alongside CCTV and other access control measures.

Integration supports a unified approach to site security.

Compliance and Standards

All turnstiles installed by Croma Fire & Security meet relevant British Standards and industry guidelines. Systems are tested and commissioned to ensure safe and compliant operation.

Documentation is provided to support regulatory requirements and ongoing system management.

Maintenance

Routine servicing ensures that turnstiles continue to operate effectively. Maintenance includes inspection of moving parts, testing of access control integration, and system adjustments where necessary.

Regular checks help maintain consistent performance and reduce the risk of faults.

Product Range

We have a broad variety of security and safety products available to suit all sorts of needs. You can combine our turnstiles with other barrier types or CCTV and other alarm systems which are suitable for commercial or residential properties.

What our customers say

The requirements of Compass School can be complex due to supporting pupils with SEMH (Social, emotional and mental health) issues. Whether installing, servicing, or maintaining, the knowledge of the Croma engineers is second to none, whereby they always find a satisfactory solution to the issue at hand that will withstand the environment we work within.

Roger Sim – Site Manager, Compass School

The school has been delighted with the technology, which has enabled us to improve not only administrative functions but also the pastoral care of our pupils

Giles Brand — Bursar, St Mary’s School Ascot

I see tangible payroll savings in the order of 2-3%. Our sites are usually about 35 workers; we are saving £400-£500 a week and are in much better control

Luke Sanders – Project Manager, LTS Refurbishment

We have been delighted with the Fastvein system and the care given to us by Croma. From design meetings to commission, the staff were knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. The system has done all we asked of it and with over 500 entries per day. We are now looking to extend the system to more doors […]

Turnstiles FAQs

Can turnstiles work with access control cards or biometrics?

Yes. Turnstiles integrate with card readers, biometric scanners, and ticketing systems to allow entry only to authorised people.

What is the difference between full height and waist height turnstiles?

Full height turnstiles offer stronger control and prevent tailgating, making them suited to perimeters and unmanned sites. Waist height turnstiles suit receptions and staffed entrances where appearance and flow matter more.
