Turnstile Security Systems for Construction Sites

Protecting sites, workers, and assets with controlled entry.

Turnstile Access Systems for Construction Sites

Turnstile access control security systems are now standard on modern construction projects, providing secure entry, clear workforce records, and compliance with UK health and safety legislation. At Veritech Systems Ltd, we specialise in designing and installing site-specific solutions that prevent unauthorised access, protect valuable assets, and keep projects running smoothly.

Why Construction Sites Require Access Control

Construction sites are high-risk environments. Heavy plant machinery, expensive tools, and valuable materials make them a frequent target for theft. High turnover of contractors and subcontractors also increases the risk of unauthorised entry and compliance breaches.

A properly managed construction site access control system ensures that only approved personnel are admitted, while giving site managers real-time oversight.

Key problems solved by turnstile access systems:

  • Construction site theft prevention: restricts entry to authorised workers only
  • Unauthorised access prevention: blocks public or intruders from wandering into dangerous areas
  • Site safety compliance: entry logs and workforce data align with HSE and CDM requirements
  • Worker identification systems: ensures that everyone on site has passed inductions and holds correct permits

Key Features of Our Turnstile Systems

Our access control units are designed to fit the practical realities of busy sites. Whether you need a long-term solution for a multi-year project or a temporary site security setup for a mobile job, we provide reliable technology backed by experienced installation.

Biometric Access Control

Fingerprint and facial recognition turnstiles eliminate the risk of card sharing or lost passes. Each worker’s identity is confirmed instantly, creating a robust digital record of who is on site at any given time

RFID Card Readers

For larger workforces or where biometric use isn’t practical, RFID cards and fobs offer quick, scalable entry control. They are easy to issue, deactivate, and replace, making them ideal for projects with multiple subcontractors.

Site Entrance Barriers & Integration

Our systems include site entrance barriers and full-height or half-height turnstiles, depending on project requirements. Portable turnstile cabins are available for short-term contracts, ensuring the same level of control without permanent fixtures.
All systems can integrate with unmanned site monitoring and CCTV for complete oversight.

Supporting Compliance and Accountability

UK legislation requires contractors to demonstrate active measures to protect both workers and the public. Our systems are designed with compliance in mind, supporting:
  • Site safety compliance with CDM Regulations 2015
  • Attendance logs to prove adherence to health and safety compliance requirements
  • Secure digital records for insurance claims and audits
  • Integration with site induction records and permit systems
By connecting access data with workforce management tools, site managers gain reliable visibility into who is present, for how long, and under what authorisation.

Benefits Beyond Security

Turnstile systems don’t just reduce risks; they actively improve project efficiency and workforce management.

Key benefits include:

  • Accurate workforce time tracking: Digital entry logs reduce payroll disputes
  • Streamlined health and safety compliance: Automatic link with induction databases
  • Construction site safety : Only trained and inducted staff are allowed entry
  • Unmanned site monitoring: Reduce reliance on manned guarding with integrated CCTV oversight
  • Temporary site security: Deployable cabins available for short-term projects
