What is a Speed Gate?
A speed gate is a modern, high-speed security barrier that controls access while ensuring efficiency and user safety.
Of all the security turnstiles, a speed gate can often look the most aesthetically pleasing, featuring sleek glass panels and a modern design.
Our innovative, yet discreet design of access control speed gates means they can be used in almost any environment. This includes leisure centres, colleges, schools, public transport, healthcare, airports, corporate buildings, and commercial sectors.
As the name suggests, a speed gate is designed to handle high volumes of pedestrian traffic, making it ideal for busy locations that require fast and controlled access.
Access Control Speed Gates
Access made simple, security assured.
Access control speed gates work seamlessly with modern authentication systems, verifying user identity and access permissions before allowing entry. To enter, users present an RFID card, biometric scan, or QR code to the system. Once verified, the speed gate opens momentarily, allowing controlled access.
Common authentication methods used with a speed gate include proximity cards, contactless smart cards, fingerprint scanners, and facial recognition systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you install a speed gate?
Installing a speed gate involves site preparation, access control integration, and testing. Our team ensures minimal disruption during setup, with seamless connectivity to your existing security system.
How do access control speed gates help to manage building security?
Access control speed gates regulate entry and exit, allowing access only to authorised personnel. By integrating with RFID, biometrics, and smart credentials, they prevent unauthorised entry while enhancing security monitoring.
What are bi folding speed gates?
Bi-folding speed gates are ideal in environments where space is limited or where a wider access point is needed. These gates are characterised by their folding barrier design, which allows for a larger opening width when compared to a traditional speed gate.
