Optical turnstiles offer one simple solution
to the practice of following a valid user through an open door - known as tailgating.
Tailgating is one of the biggest threats to a secure environment, particularly
in larger offices, facilities or public buildings with large numbers of people,
where it becomes virtually impossible for employees to be expected to recognise
each other. The choice of technology used must take these issues into account,
balancing appearance and usability, with safety, easy disabled access, and security.

G4S Security Systems can offer a range of options to perfectly balance these issues whether
it is full height, half height or for internal or external applications. We are
a company who prides itself on its unbiased approach and will supply and fit products
manufactured by any company. Our many years' experience however, means that we
can recommend the best solution according to your business needs.
