Turnstile Integration
The connection between a biometric access terminal and a physical turnstile, flap barrier, tripod gate, or speed gate to control physical passage.
Ensures the gate opens only upon a successful verification event — preventing tailgating and unauthorized entry at high-footfall access points.
Frequently Asked Questions about Turnstile Integration
What types of gates can Nialabs integrate with?
Flap barriers, tripod turnstiles, full-height turnstiles, speed gates, and boom barriers via relay output or Wiegand protocol.
What prevents tailgating through a turnstile?
Turnstiles physically block one-person-at-a-time passage. Combined with a biometric event per person, Nialabs can detect and log tailgating attempts as security exceptions.
Can the turnstile be unlocked in an emergency?
Yes. Nialabs supports emergency unlock — triggered from the cloud dashboard, a physical button, or fire alarm relay — to open all gates simultaneously for evacuation.
