All Hayward turnstiles and ADA gates are software agnostic, meaning they integrate with virtually all access control systems, card readers, proximity scanners, and more. The integration opportunities are endless.
Today’s facilities demand more than just secured entrances—they need smart, seamless, and hygienic access experiences. That’s why Hayward offers a full line of touchless turnstiles that offer a hands-free entrance experience. Our touchless turnstiles and gates eliminate the need for physical contact, creating a smoother, cleaner entry experience for employees, visitors, and contractors. By removing high-touch surfaces and manual check-in processes, you reduce potential germ transmission while boosting both hygiene and user comfort—especially in high-traffic environments.
But the benefits go far beyond health. Touchless entry enhances the perception of your facility, signaling innovation, professionalism, and attention to detail. It also keeps people moving—minimizing bottlenecks and improving traffic flow at key checkpoints like lobbies, employee entrances, and security vestibules. In a world of continual modernization and automation, your turnstile entrance solution should be both sophisticated and easy to use: something that can only be achieved with a hands-free, touchless turnstile.
From tech campuses to corporate headquarters, organizations are increasingly pairing turnstiles with biometric access, mobile credentials, and automated temperature screening to create intelligent entry systems that align with modern workplace expectations. Hayward’s full line of turnstiles and ADA gates supports these integrations right out of the box. Whether you’re designing for high-security compliance, operational efficiency, or premium user experience, we offer contactless solutions that match your budget, your environment, and your vision for the future.
A touchless turnstile is a modern access solution—whether a waist-high optical turnstile or an ADA-compliant swing gate—that allows users to pass through without any physical contact. These systems use technologies like optical beam detection, motorized barrier movement, and integrated access control software to fully automate the entry process.
Instead of pushing or rotating a barrier manually, users authenticate using contactless credentials—such as proximity cards, mobile phones, or biometric scans—and the turnstile responds by opening automatically. The result? A seamless, frictionless entry experience that feels clean, fast, and remarkably intuitive.
At Hayward Turnstiles, every touchless model we offer is built for easy integration with advanced tools like facial recognition, mobile access, temperature scanning, QR readers, and more—future-ready from the moment it ships.
For as long as the entrance security industry has been around, access control turnstiles and ADA gates were primarily focused on controlling who is allowed access to your facility. But ever since the COVID-19 pandemic, the access control industry is extending its focus to what is allowed into or out of your facility, with the what being pathogens, germs, and other microscopic threats. Now more than ever, access control is a vital aspect of a company’s safety against unauthorized entrants: macroscopic and microscopic alike.
Naturally, with changing emphasis comes changing products. We are starting to see more and more product innovations in the industry based on the idea of the touchless turnstile. The touchless turnstile is key for creating fully contactless entryways that do not compromise security for hands-free operation. Innovative new products like temperature sensors, facial recognition systems, and integrated hand sanitizer units integrate seamlessly with contactless turnstiles and ADA gates to create full hands-free entry solutions.
Every Hayward Turnstiles touchless turnstile you see offered on this page comes ready to easily integrate with most access control systems. They can be set up to directly communicate with credential checking hardware and software to further automate your entry process and check credentials with a reduced risk of cross-contamination.
