SU500 Optical Counting Turnstile
The SU500 isn't an access control turnstile — it's a counting turnstile. No barriers, no credentials: people walk through and the optical sensor array counts each passage with high accuracy. If you need to know how many people entered, exited, or are currently in the building, this is the tool.
Common installs put SU500 lanes at facility entries and exits, sometimes paired: one lane counts people in, another counts them out, and the difference is your live occupancy number. It counts in one direction or both, and a configurable audible alarm can flag wrong-way movement. The cabinet is compact, lanes can be spaced for standard or ADA-width passages, and it works indoors plus in select outdoor applications.
We've used SU500s for occupancy compliance, staffing decisions, and traffic analysis at venues, campuses, and retail-adjacent facilities. It's a simple product that answers a question every facility manager asks: how many people are in my building right now?
