Allows Easy Entry through Fastlane Optical Turnstiles
Allows Easy Entry through Fastlane Optical Turnstiles
The FastScan™ TVS PS allows the use of two modern technologies, QR codes and smartphones, to assist visitors in quickly and securely entering a building by passing through Fastlane® optical turnstiles in the lobby. It enables building security staff to email QR codes to visitors that will allow them to enter through Fastlane turnstiles in the lobby. This process saves buildings money in not printing visitor badges and saves visitors time as they don’t have to stop at a security desk or kiosk for a credential. The PS model installs in the end of a Fastlane pedestal with bright LED illumination to signal to a visitor where to present the QR code. The angled reader allows visitors to still see their phone screens as their QR codes are being read which eases usage and speeds entry; a screen that has rotated or darkened for power savings will, therefore, be obvious to a visitor.

Provides Customizable Access Control Barriers
Provides Customizable Access Control Barriers
Boon Edam’s Speedlane Lifeline Series includes the slimmest security barrier cabinet in the industry. There are 3 models: Slide, Swing and Open. The modular system design is highly customizable, and it is sleek, ergonomic and refined. The “V” shape of the product, seen from all angles, creates the impression of spaciousness and a much smaller footprint. Combined with a mirror panel at its base, the product “floats” above the floor, giving a sense of futurism. Customers can also accentuate their chosen product by selecting from a pre-determined, on-trend palette of finishes and colors, such as the understated colors in the Business Series, or the bolder statement colors and accents of the Elements and Expressions series.
