Needs 

Considering the increasing demand for a more efficient entrance control system, DSU has made an enquiry with the following requirements: 

· Quicker entrance control for entry and exit 

As a well-known and sizable higher education institution in the country, thousands of students, faculty, and other visitors enter and exit daily, placing a significant burden on the entrance management system. With the university's development, the expansion of the campus, and the growth in the number of students and faculty, the existing entrance gates are becoming inadequate. The university needs a faster and more effective entrance management system to handle the large volume of people coming and going. 

· Convenience of entrance and exit for the mobility impaired 

In addition to the general pedestrian pathways, the new entrance management system must  also consider the needs of individuals with mobility impairments for convenient access.

· Cost efficiency 

Cost efficiency is another major consideration for the university, as it aims to improve entrance management while minimizing changes. 

Solution

ZKTeco deployed an entrance control solution, consisting of TS1000D Tripod Turnstiles and SBT2000S Wide-passage Single-lane Swing Barriers. And as the original entrance control system already has a facial authentication system, ZKTeco remained the devices and integrated them with the TS1000D Turnstiles and SBT2000S Barriers.

· TS1000D 

TS1000 is a single-lane tripod turnstile series designed for smooth and silent operation and draws very little power. It’s made of stainless steel which makes TS1000 highly durable. TS1000 is also surprisingly compact and designed to operate in small workspaces. The ZKTeco TS1000 tripod turnstile series offers an efficient and reliable entrance control solution, particularly noted for its impressive speed of throughput. With the capability to process up to 13 people per minute using facial recognition, the TS1000  ensures quick and seamless access, making it ideal for high-traffic environments. Its durable stainless steel construction and compact design further enhance its appeal, allowing it to fit into small workspaces without compromising performance. The turnstile's integrated access control reader options, including RFID and fingerprint recognition, combined with features like emergency drop arms, ensure both security and convenience. Overall, the TS1000 delivers a fast and effective access management solution, meeting the demands of modern facilities. 

· SBT2000S 

The SBT2000S Series of wide-passage single-lane swing barriers provides an elegant and cost-effective entrance control solution, particularly suitable for large parcel deliveries and individuals with physical disabilities. One of its standout features is its ability to integrate seamlessly with other turnstiles and systems, allowing for the easy incorporation of the wide passageway into existing access management frameworks. This integration enhances overall cost efficiency, making it a practical choice for organizations looking to optimize their entrance control systems. With a lane width of 800mm and a swift opening / closing time of just 3 seconds, the SBT2000S ensures smooth operation while maintaining safety through its sensitive infrared sensors. It also offers features such as anti-collision technology  and smart indicator modes, further enhancing its usability and effectiveness in high-traffic environments.
