Turnstile Gate with QR Code and RFID Reader

A turnstile gate with QR code and RFID reader combines two convenient identification methods in one pedestrian access control system. Employees can enter using RFID cards, while visitors, gym members, or ticket holders can use QR codes displayed on smartphones or printed tickets.

YUNSHAO provides turnstile gates compatible with QR code scanners, RFID readers, and third-party access control systems. Our solutions can be customized for office buildings, gyms, residential communities, stadiums, and other controlled entrances.

How Does a QR Code and RFID Turnstile Gate Work?

QR code and RFID technologies provide alternative ways to identify users. Both can be connected to a shared access control system that manages permissions and controls the turnstile.

QR Code Access

Users scan a QR code from a smartphone or printed ticket. The configured system validates the credential, checks its permissions, and authorizes passage when approved.

RFID Card Access

Users present an RFID card or compatible credential to the reader. The controller verifies access permissions and sends an opening command to the turnstile.

Both methods can operate on the same gate without requiring users to present a QR code and RFID card together. The access controller coordinates authorization, while the gate manages barrier movement and pedestrian detection.

Important: Supporting QR code and RFID does not automatically mean two-factor authentication. In most installations, they are alternative credentials; requiring both credentials is a separate system configuration.

Recommended YUNSHAO Turnstile Gates

YUNSHAO offers a wide range of turnstile gates compatible with QR code and RFID access control systems. From commercial office entrances to high-security facilities and ticketing applications, our turnstiles can be configured with integrated or external credential readers. Different passage designs, security levels, and system integration options are available to meet specific project requirements.

QR Code and RFID Access Control Integration

A dual-reader turnstile system typically includes a turnstile gate, QR code scanner, RFID reader, access controller, and compatible management software. Some combined readers support both credential types in one device, reducing the space required for installation.

Component	Function
Turnstile Gate	Controls physical passage and barrier movement.
QR Code Reader	Reads digital or printed QR credentials.
RFID Reader	Reads supported RFID cards or credentials.
Access Controller	Coordinates authorization and gate opening signals.
Management Software	Manages user permissions, visitor access, and event records.

Depending on the selected devices, the system may use Wiegand, RS485, relay contacts, or TCP/IP connections. Compatibility depends on the actual protocols and supported functions, not simply the presence of a matching interface.

For example, an office can issue permanent RFID credentials to employees and temporary QR codes to visitors. Both credentials can be checked against the appropriate access rules before the same turnstile lane is released.

When planning integration, confirm credential formats, duplicate-use restrictions, passage feedback, offline operation, and emergency release requirements.

FAQ

Can one turnstile gate support both QR code and RFID access?

Yes. A turnstile can use a compatible combined QR/RFID reader or separate readers connected to an access controller. Users can enter with either credential type according to their permissions.

Can employees use RFID cards while visitors use QR codes?

Yes. This is a common configuration for office buildings and commercial facilities. The access management system can assign different permissions and validity periods to employees and visitors.

Can QR code and RFID turnstiles integrate with existing software?

Often yes, provided the selected readers, controllers, and software support compatible interfaces or documented APIs. The exact hardware and software versions should be checked before installation.

Which turnstile gate is best for QR code and RFID access control?

Speed gates and swing turnstile gates are suitable for many commercial entrances. Flap barriers and ticketing turnstiles are also available for compatible applications. The best choice depends on traffic volume, passage width, security requirements, and site conditions.
