The main difference between a turnstile and a drop arm turnstile
lies in their operating mechanism and physical design. Here are the
key distinctions:
- Operating Mechanism: Turnstile: A turnstile typically consists of rotating arms or bars
that pivot horizontally as individuals pass through. The rotation
of these arms restricts passage in one direction while allowing
free movement in the opposite direction.
Swing Turnstile: A swing turnstile, also known as a swing gate or
swing barrier, operates by swinging open in a controlled manner to
allow individuals to pass through. It uses a hinged or pivoting
mechanism that enables the gate to swing inward or outward,
providing a clear passage.
- Physical Design: Turnstile: Turnstiles commonly feature multiple rotating arms or
bars configured in a triangular shape, with each arm set at an
angle to create a narrow opening for individuals to pass through.
Drop Arm Turnstile: Drop arm turnstiles typically consist of a single or dual panel
gate that swings open or closed like a door. These gates can be
made of rigid panels, transparent glass, or other materials,
offering a wider opening for people to move through.
- Passage Width and Throughput: Turnstile: Due to the triangular configuration and limited space
between the rotating arms, traditional turnstiles generally have a
narrower passage width compared to swing turnstiles. This may
affect the flow rate and throughput of users.
Swing Turnstile: Swing turnstiles often provide a wider passage
width, accommodating individuals with luggage, bags, or mobility
aids more easily. The broader entrance allows for smoother
pedestrian flow and higher throughput during peak times.
- Security Considerations: Turnstile: Turnstiles can act as a deterrent against unauthorized
entry and help regulate pedestrian traffic. However, they may be
less effective at preventing tailgating or multiple individuals
passing through with a single authorization.
