Why integrators specify the FBL500 Flap Barrier Turnstile

🔇 Quiet operation — well below typical office ambient noise, so reception areas stay calm even at peak throughput.

💰 Built for a 10-year service life — stainless-steel housing resists rust in coastal cities and humid climates. As a result, total cost of ownership stays low.

🎯 Universal reader support — pair it with RFID, fingerprint, ZKTeco face recognition, QR-code or biometric panels. Therefore, you're never locked into one credential type.

⚡ 25–30 people per minute — smooth mechanical rotation keeps shift-change and lunch-hour queues moving without manual intervention.

🛠️ Two-installer setup — plug-and-play wiring with 12 V/24 V DC power. Most installations are commissioned in under half a day.

🛡️ Fail-safe in emergencies — arms drop down automatically during a power cut or fire alarm, ensuring fast evacuation in line with Indian fire-safety norms.

Frequently asked questions

Q. What happens during a power cut?
The arms drop down automatically during a power failure, allowing free pedestrian passage. As a result, emergency evacuation is never blocked — keeping your installation compliant with Indian fire-safety norms.

Q. Does it integrate with our existing access-control software?
Yes. The FBL500 Flap Barrier Turnstile is controller-agnostic and accepts dry-contact or Wiegand input. Consequently, it integrates with ZKBio CVSecurity, ZKBio Access, BioTime, and most third-party access-control platforms.

Q. Is installation included with the purchase?
On-site installation across Delhi-NCR is available directly through our team, and our authorised partners cover the rest of India. Typical installation takes 4–6 hours per lane.

Q. Which readers and credentials does it support?
The FBL500 Flap Barrier Turnstile works with the full ZKTeco reader range — RFID (EM/Mifare/HID), fingerprint, face recognition and QR code. Plus, any third-party reader with a standard Wiegand output is supported, so existing credentials can be reused.
