FAQ β€” Maswali ya Kawaida

Turnstile & Boom Barrier Kenya β€” FAQs

Bei ya turnstile Kenya ni ngapi? (How much does a turnstile cost in Kenya?)+
Bei ya turnstile Kenya: tripod turnstile inaanzia KSh 65,000 hadi 120,000 fully installed kwa lane moja. Flap barrier inaanzia KSh 120,000 hadi 220,000 per lane. Full height turnstile inaanzia KSh 180,000 hadi 350,000. Bei hizi ni all-inclusive β€” hardware, cabling, civil works, installation, software na training. Tumia quote tool yetu juu kupata bei halisi kwa site yako β€” au piga simu 0722 708034.
What is the price of a boom barrier in Kenya?+
A boom barrier (parking gate) with a 3m arm is fully installed in Kenya for KSh 55,000–90,000, including the barrier unit, loop detector, power supply, battery backup, and cabling. A 6m folding arm barrier costs KSh 85,000–120,000 installed. If you add RFID card access, an intercom or ANPR number plate recognition, prices increase accordingly. Use our live quote tool above for an exact price, or call 0722 708034.
What is the difference between a flap barrier and a tripod turnstile in Kenya?+
A tripod turnstile uses three rotating horizontal steel arms to control pedestrian entry β€” cost-effective (KSh 65,000–120,000 installed), durable and ideal for high-traffic industrial and institutional settings like factories, warehouses and schools. A flap barrier uses retractable acrylic or glass panels that swing open and close quickly β€” faster throughput (60 persons/minute vs 35 for tripod), more elegant appearance, and preferred for corporate offices, hotel lobbies and shopping malls. Flap barriers cost roughly 2Γ— more than tripod turnstiles but create a significantly better user experience.
Will the turnstile still work during a KPLC power cut?+
Yes β€” every turnstile and boom barrier we install includes a 12V sealed battery backup as standard. When mains power fails, the battery automatically takes over and keeps the system running for 6–8 hours. In addition, all turnstiles and barriers have a fail-safe mode β€” they open automatically when power is cut to allow evacuation. Manual release keys are also provided. During commissioning, we configure the fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour based on your fire safety requirements.
Can the turnstile be integrated with our existing access control system?+
Yes β€” ZKTeco turnstiles and barriers output a standard relay signal (dry contact) that integrates with any third-party access control system via a Wiegand or RS485 interface. If you already have a ZKTeco biometric reader, fingerprint system or RFID access control panel, the turnstile connects directly with no additional interface hardware. We also integrate with non-ZKTeco systems, third-party ANPR cameras and fire alarm panels during installation and commissioning.
How long does turnstile installation take in Kenya?+
For a simple 1–2 lane tripod turnstile installation on an existing concrete floor, allow 1 full day for installation and commissioning. Flap barriers and full height turnstiles take 1–2 days per 2 lanes. A full parking management system with ANPR and booms takes 3–5 days. Sites requiring significant civil works (floor cutting, concrete embedding, conduit laying under the floor) add 1–2 days for the civil preparation phase before installation begins. We give you an accurate timeline during the free site survey.
Do you install turnstiles and boom barriers outside Nairobi?+
Yes β€” we serve all 47 counties. We have installed turnstile and entrance control systems in Mombasa, Nakuru, Kisumu, Eldoret, Nyeri, Nanyuki and at upcountry schools, factories and government facilities. Logistics and travel costs are included transparently in your written quotation β€” no surprise charges after the fact. For upcountry projects, we typically combine multiple installations in one trip to minimise costs for all clients in the region.
