Turnstiles, swing gates, and revolving gates are primarily made of 304 grade stainless steel, galvanized steel, powder-coated steel, or galvanized and powder-coated steel.

304 stainless steel – offers significantly higher durability compared to other types and is most commonly used in devices where components frequently come into contact with passing individuals and are exposed to dents and scratches. Stainless steel requires regular maintenance to preserve its aesthetic qualities. In aggressive environments (near coastlines, swimming pool areas, or places where devices come into contact with various chemicals), the use of 316 stainless steel is recommended. Its composition is characterized by, among other things, a higher chromium content, which affects passivation, as well as the aesthetics, durability, and appearance of the steel.

Galvanized steel (hot-dip) – offers increased corrosion resistance compared to powder-coated steel. Galvanized steel is perceived as less aesthetic than painted steel and is mainly used in devices installed, for example, along the fence line of a construction site where other infrastructure elements, such as the fence itself, are also made of galvanized steel.

Powder-coated steel – allows for any color to be applied to the devices. Colors can be selected from the device catalogs. It serves solely as a layer to provide aesthetic value to the device, which is why it is used for equipment installed indoors.

Galvanized and powder-coated steel – allows for any color to be applied to the devices. Colors can be selected from the device catalogs. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The use of so-called structural colors is preferred, as they give the zinc layer an aesthetic appearance.
