Gyms & Sporting Facilities Access Control Solutions

Leisure, sports, recreation centres, swimming pools, and private gyms need to offer a welcoming and secure environment for their visitors while maintaining a discrete but high level of security.  The right access control solutions are the key to balancing a safe user-friendly environment with managing member and visitor access.

Fast, safe, efficient speed gates and turnstiles are essential to the operational success of any visitor or member-driven facility. Screening entries to allow only approved entrants and managing visitor numbers is key to maintaining a safe and secure environment.

When it comes to maintaining control and ensuring safety in leisure centres and gyms, turnstiles and speed gates enable centre operators to:

  • Keep non-members out and allow guests to enjoy their facility with an easy-to-access entry point
  • Ensure everyone who enters the facility is authorised and pays entry fees, reducing revenue leakage
  • Provide members with faster entry, removing traffic congestion at reception to validate their membership otherwise

  • When connected with membership management systems, these solutions collect valuable data, providing insight into member behaviour and patterns.
  • Turnstiles and speed gates are increasingly common in gyms for access control, offering a blend of security and efficiency, perfectly suited for gyms and health clubs. Gym entrances experience heavy foot traffic, particularly during peak hours, resulting in overcrowding, customer frustration, and potential safety hazards. Our speed barriers and waist-height turnstiles provide a streamlined and effective solution to manage this flow.

    Gyms and health clubs require robust access control to protect member exclusivity and streamline operations. Our speed gates offer a discreet yet highly effective method for managing entry and exit, ensuring only members can access the facility. This enhances security and contributes to operational efficiency.
