In addition, a turnstile can restrict passage only to people who insert a coin, ticket, pass, or other method of payment or verification. Modern turnstiles can incorporate biometrics, including retina scanning, fingerprints, and other individual human characteristics which can be scanned. Thus a turnstile can be used in the case of paid access (sometimes called a fare gate or ticket barrier when used for this purpose), for example to access public transport, a pay toilet, or to restrict access to authorized people, for example in the lobby of an office building.
Turnstiles are used at a wide variety of settings, including stadiums, amusement parks, mass transit
stations, office lobbies, airports, ski resorts, factories, power plants and casinos.
From a business/revenue standpoint, turnstiles give an accurate, verifiable count of attendance.
From a security standpoint, they lead patrons to enter single-file, so security personnel have a clear
view of each patron. This enables security to efficiently isolate potential trouble or to confiscate any
prohibited materials. On the other hand, physical barriers become a serious safety issue when a
speedy evacuation is needed, requiring emergency exits that bypass any turnstiles.
