In modern access control and crowd management, Tripod Turnstiles have become one of the most reliable, cost-effective, and widely used pedestrian control solutions. Known for their robust design, smooth operation, and easy integration with access control systems, tripod turnstiles are commonly installed at corporate offices, metro stations, stadiums, airports, residential complexes, and industrial facilities.

A tripod turnstile consists of three rotating arms arranged in a tripod shape that allow only one person to pass at a time. By controlling and monitoring pedestrian flow, these systems ensure security, discipline, and efficiency in high-traffic environments.
