Full Height Turnstile Gate

Model no: GS-549 / GS-549 II

Product Overview

The GS-549 Series Full Height Pedestrian Turnstile Gates are industrial-grade door access control systems engineered for facilities requiring maximum security, strict access control, and high operational reliability.

Available in single-lane (GS-549) and dual-lane (GS-549 II) configurations, these full-height turnstile systems are designed to eliminate tailgating, prevent unauthorized entry, and ensure controlled pedestrian movement in high-risk environments. Manufactured using 304-grade stainless steel, the GS-549 Series delivers long service life and consistent performance in mission-critical facilities.

Key Security Features & Benefits

GS-549 — Single Lane Full Height Turnstile

  • Single controlled access lane
  • Ideal for moderate-to-high security entry points
  • Compact footprint
  • Throughput up to 45 persons per minute
  • Rated for ≥ 10 million cycles (MCBF)

GS-549 II — Dual Lane Full Height Turnstile

  • Two independent full-height lanes
  • Simultaneous entry/exit operation
  • Higher pedestrian throughput capacity
  • Independent direction control per lane
  • Rated for > 8 million cycles (MCBF)

Integrated Door Access Control System

The GS-549 Series supports seamless integration with modern access technologies, including:

  • Face Recognition
  • RFID card readers
  • UHF long-range readers
  • Fingerprint biometric devices
  • Mobile & smart credentials

The system can also integrate with HR attendance software, access control platforms, and video management systems (VMS).

Advanced Anti-Tailgating Protection

Positive-action locking mechanisms combined with controlled 90-degree rotor movement ensure that only one individual passes per authorized access signal. Each lane in the GS-549 II operates independently, maintaining strict pedestrian discipline.

Audible & Visual Entry Alerts

Built-in LED indicators and sound alerts provide clear confirmation for authorized access and immediate warning for invalid or unauthorized entry attempts.

Emergency Fail-Safe Operation

In the event of power failure or emergency trigger:

  • The turnstile automatically unlocks
  • Free passage is enabled for safe evacuation
  • Designed to comply with local fire and safety regulations

High-Traffic Performance

  • Supports throughput of up to 45 persons per minute (per lane)
  • Reduces congestion during peak operational hours
  • Suitable for continuous, high-usage environments

Industrial-Grade Durability

  • 304-grade brushed stainless steel construction
  • Heavy-duty mechanical framework
  • Low-noise brushed motor
  • Designed for continuous duty cycle
  • Service life exceeding 8–10 million cycles (MCBF)

Wide Operating Temperature Range

Engineered to perform from –15°C to 70°C, the GS-549 Series is designed for continuous indoor and outdoor operation in demanding industrial and high-security environments.
