MST

Designed to last

Superior construction

The MST full height maximum security turnstile cuts no corners. Unlike competitive models that use individual parts that must be bolted together during installation, the integral sections of the MST are delivered fully welded, creating a solid and secure product. Details matter, especially when manufacturing a full height security turnstile that will stand the test of time.

Key Features:

• Welded steel construction with no exposed bolts or fasteners
• Stainless steel top channel cover provided regardless of finish
• High quality sealed and covered bearings
• Splined connection between the rotating section and top channel assembly provides a precision fit that minimizes play
• Full-featured turnstile controller protects against electrical surges and is conformal coated to enhance weatherization protection
• Suitable for outdoor environments
• Dozens of options and several finishes available

Added Benefits:

• Best in class security
• Designed for long term continuous usage
• One-to-one passage control deters tailgating
• Great looking product, regardless of finish
• Easy to install and easy to maintain

Ready to meet your security needs

Unsurpassed facility entrance control

The MST full height turnstile comes in both manual and electric lock control versions. Both are richly appointed with standard features that are expensive options on competitor products.

The electric model provides bi-directional access control in conjunction with a facility access control system or any device that can provide a dry contact output (such as a push button). The turnstile comes with attachment points for card readers and each rotation direction can be independently configured as fail-safe or fail-lock. In operation, when a valid credential is presented, the turnstile unlocks, allowing a single controlled rotation in the requested direction. Unauthorized entries, or attempts to tailgate on an authorized entry, are deterred.

Both the manual and electric lock versions of the MST full height turnstile have built in override controls for additional flexibility. Passage directions can be set for free passage, controlled passage or locked down.

Key Features:

• Single or bi-directional control
• Electric lock control and manual versions
• Independent fail-safe or fail-secure operation
• Speed control to provide a controlled, safe rotation
• Automatic self-centering prevents over or under travel of rotating section
• Built-in override controls
• Rugged turnstile controller integrates with any access control system
• Low maintenance

Added Benefits:

• Secure and safe
• Intuitive for users and staff
• Integrates easily with access control systems
• Can be operated in unattended applications
• Controlled rotation minimizes physical abuse, banging and wear on components
• Simple to change between fail-safe and fail-lock operation

The result is a full height turnstile that thousands of facilities worldwide rely upon for superior access control and visitor management.

Key Features:

• Simplified integration to access control and visitor management systems
• Flexible credential reader attachment options allows use of existing readers familiar to users
• Dedicated fire input and various other available I/O

Safety features you shouldn’t be without

Built-in Safety

MST full height turnstiles provide safe and secure operation. Built-in speed control controls the arm rotation speed by self-adjusting to the pushing force of the user. Even when a user pushes hard on the turnstile arms, the speed of the arm rotation is controlled. This increases safety and reduces the chance of a rapidly spinning rotating section catching a user’s heel. In addition to controlling the rotation speed, the full height turnstile’s speed control also greatly reduces the possibility that the rotating section will kickback toward the user at the conclusion of the rotation. After each passage, the rotating section of the full height turnstile smoothly returns to the home position and locks in place, ready for the next user. The unique cam design of the MST also makes it mechanically impossible for a user to get locked inside the turnstile.

In secured applications the MST is typically configured for fail-lock in the entrance direction and fail-safe in the exit direction. When power is removed from the turnstile this prevents people from entering but allows personnel to exit. Turnstiles configured for fail-lock in the exit direction can also provide free egress using local key override controls. Other ordering options are available and changing between fail-lock and fail-safe is easily accomplished in the field. A dedicated input for fire systems also provides free egress in the event of emergencies.

All weather arm and heel pads are available to slip over select arms on the rotating section of the full height turnstile for additional safety.

Key Features:

• Speed control provides a safe, controlled rotation and smoothly self-centers rotating arms
• Anti-entrapment design
• Free egress in emergencies or loss of power
• Optional heel / arm guards slide over select rotating arms

Certifications

The MST full height security turnstile is independently tested and certified by UL, conforming to both UL and CSA standards. It is also CE marked.
