Typically, there is a significant amount of money and sensitive data on-site, creating a mandate of accountability which requires that only credentialed employees and visitors be allowed into secure parts of the facility. Optical turnstiles can comprise one layer of security to help ensure that the only place a person is able to enter a facility is somewhere they are being checked for proper credentials.  Security entrances combine the ideal combination of visual deterrence with physical security and access management to provide banks and other public facing financial institutions with a proactive solution for safety and security that is field proven to be effective. They discourage casual intrusion attempts, random acts of vandalism, while also helping to defend against determined hardline criminals without impeding normal pedestrian traffic flow.  

Selecting The Right Entrance Solution

Manual revolving doors entering from the outside are designed to be beautiful, elegant, and enhance the temperature of the areas inside the vestibules or atriums whereby saving energy costs.  From a layered security perspective, they come available with remote and night locking features that provide for a single location locking response to any dangerous situation in seconds, not minutes.

Once you have entered the facility, optical turnstiles are typically utilized to convey an open environment image or feeling but provide a strict access demarcation point for the public and employees. Optical turnstiles are designed to detect an authorized person, but on their own cannot prevent an unauthorized person from entering; prevention requires direct intervention from a guard.

Protecting server rooms, currency exchange, and financial media production areas, using an unattended interlocking portal (mantrap) is common practice today. The sampling algorithms utilized in determining only one person combined with biometrics for identity verification can be performed in such a way that absolutely prevents user substitution and measures its own performance and evaluates its own risk level.

Integration To Secure Spaces

Optical turnstiles, mantraps, and other high-security portals can be integrated with access control and biometric technology to help ensure that the person entering a high-security facility is who their credentials say they are. This way you can be sure that only one person has entered for each set of credentials, and prevent passback. Portals also eliminate the possibility of tailgating, when multiple people pass through on a single authorization.
