Description

A Flap Barrier (Biometric) is an advanced access control system that uses flap-style gates (instead of rotating arms) and integrates with biometric authentication (like fingerprint, face recognition, or iris scan) to allow or deny entry. It’s commonly used in corporate offices, metro stations, airports, data centers, and high-security zones for secure, fast, and touchless pedestrian access. 🛠️ What Is a Flap Barrier with Biometric System? A Flap Barrier is a type of waist-high gate with flaps (usually acrylic or toughened glass panels) that retract into the barrier housing to allow one person to pass through after authentication. When integrated with biometric systems, it ensures only authorized personnel gain access based on unique biological traits. 🔧 Key Components Component Description Flap Wings/Panels The moving barriers that retract to allow passage Biometric Scanner Fingerprint, facial, iris, or palm recognition device for user verification Control Board Coordinates signal between biometric input and gate mechanism IR Sensors Detect people in the lane, prevent tailgating and unauthorized access LED Indicators Show access status (e.g., red for deny, green for go) Housing/Body Stainless steel or alloy structure for durability and aesthetics Emergency Override Automatically opens flaps during emergencies or power failure
