Should I choose tripod turnstiles or speed gates?
* Performance and security characteristics vary by model, configuration, access-control system and site requirements.
Tripod turnstiles and speed gates both have their advantages and disadvantages. The choice of an effective access control system will depend on end users’ unique security and access control needs.
This is why Evolve recommends that at the design stage, the specifier seek advice from the equipment manufacturer or its distributor.
It is particularly important for the equipment specifier to establish predicted user characteristics and precise user requirements such as: -
-
The volume of pedestrian traffic at different times of the day.
-
The type of pedestrian traffic, such as the elderly, the infirm, disabled persons, parents with pushchairs and young children.
-
The level of security required.
-
If users are wearing high visibility clothing.
The specifier must also consult with other relevant authorities such as fire, building control and the owner/occupier.

Get In Touch
What is a tripod turnstile? Tripod turnstiles are an entry level physical entrance control security barrier that is used for securing pedestrian access from a non-secure area to a secure area, restricting unauthorised entry. Due to their low security level, they are commonly used in staffed reception areas such as libraries, leisure centres and gyms. They normally have three rotating arms (some have 2) that spin around a central hub, allowing only one person to pass through at a time. Tripod turnstiles help organisations manage foot traffic efficiently while deterring unauthorised passage, making them a practical choice for public-facing reception areas.
How much does a tripod turnstile cost? Tripod turnstile prices vary depending on the model, configuration, installation requirements and access-control integration. Contact us for a project-specific quotation
Are tripod turnstiles DDA compliant? Standard tripod turnstiles are not suitable for wheelchair users and therefore should normally be installed alongside an accessible gate or wider access lane. We can supply integrated accessible entrance solutions that provide secure access for all users while helping organisations meet their accessibility obligations.
Can tripod turnstiles be used outdoors? Yes. Tripod turnstiles are widely used for outdoor access control at factories, warehouses, transport facilities, stadiums, and other perimeter entrances. Outdoor tripod turnstiles are available with weather-resistant construction and options suited to different environmental conditions. For exposed, coastal or harsh environments, additional weather protection and appropriate stainless-steel grades may be recommended depending on the model and application.
Can tripod turnstiles integrate with access control? Yes. Tripod turnstiles can be integrated with most modern access control systems, including card readers, biometric devices, QR code readers, and mobile credentials. Once a user's credentials are validated, the turnstile unlocks to permit a single authorised passage. Integration can also support features such as occupancy counting, anti-passback, visitor management, and fire alarm interfaces. This makes tripod turnstiles an effective solution for controlling and monitoring pedestrian access in a wide range of environments.
Where are tripod turnstiles used? They are ideal for ✓ Factories. ✓ Warehouses. ✓ Leisure Centres. ✓ Schools. ✓ Staff Entrances. Not Ideal For ✗ Premium office receptions. ✗ High-end corporate environments. ✗ Locations requiring maximum anti-tailgating protection.
