Features

Why facilities choose our full-height turnstiles

Anti-Climb, Anti-Tailgate

Floor-to-ceiling barrier eliminates climbing over, crawling under, and tailgating. Single-person passage enforced by rotor geometry and locking mechanism.

Outdoor-Rated IP65 Logic

IP54 cabinet with IP65 logic controller rated for -10°C to +70°C. Optional heating kits and canopies for extreme weather conditions.

12W Standby Power

Ultra-low power consumption with fail-safe operation. Optional battery backup ensures continued operation during power outages.

7 Flagship Models, 20+ Configurations

Seven most-specified models across our LFT and Maxima series (manual or motor-driven, glass-faced or fully fortified) within a 20+ model range that's customizable in finish, drive, and integration.

Universal Integration

RS232 communication with 255-release storage buffer. Supports RFID, biometrics, PIN, and mobile credentials with all major access control systems.

AISI 304/316 Stainless Steel

Heavy-gauge stainless steel construction resists corrosion, vandalism, and UV exposure. Built for 20+ years of continuous outdoor service.

Owning it after the install

The part most brands go quiet about

Serviceability, spare-parts speed, and who actually answers the phone decide your year-five maintenance budget more than the spec sheet does. Here is how buying manufacturer-direct changes it.

US-assembled in Brooklyn

Built and commissioned at our Brooklyn facility, not drop-shipped from a container. You get a domestic point of contact for the life of the unit.

Same-day US parts

Spare motors, boards, sensors and seals ship same-day from Brooklyn inventory: no customs hold, no import-parts risk when a European supply line goes dark.

Serviceable by design

Front-access panels and modular drives mean a tech reaches the controls without dismantling the whole lane. Standard hand tools, documented procedures.

A direct engineer in 24h

Manufacturer-direct support with no distributor layer. The people who build and program the hardware answer integration and service calls, typically within 24 hours.

Full-height turnstile FAQs

A full-height turnstile is a floor-to-ceiling rotating barrier (typically 7 feet / 2.1 meters tall) that completely encloses the passage zone. Unlike tripod turnstiles or speed gates, full-height turnstiles eliminate the possibility of climbing over or crawling under. They provide the highest level of unmanned security and are the standard choice for outdoor perimeters, construction sites, and high-security facilities.

Yes. All Gatestile full-height turnstiles feature an IP54-rated cabinet and an IP65-rated logic controller, making them fully suitable for outdoor installation. The AISI 304/316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion, UV exposure, and harsh weather. Optional heating kits and canopies are available for extreme climates.

We feature seven most-specified full-height models (Sentry, Sentry Duo, Guardian, Guardian Duo, Vista, Meridian, and Bastion) within a broader range of 20+ configurations across the LFT and Maxima series. Each is available single-direction or bi-directional.
