Why it matters
When the entrance is open you do not know who is inside. In a factory that means a safety risk and working hours that cannot be checked. In a school, parents want to know that not just anyone walks in. In a gym, expired memberships keep being used.
With tripod turnstiles, each person passes only with permission: card, fingerprint or face. Every entry and exit is stored, and if you want, staff hours go straight into your timekeeping or payroll software, with no paper lists.
Visitors get temporary access from reception, and in an emergency the entrance is released so everyone can leave freely.
Where it is used
