Market-first: Frontier Pitts produce 120-degree rotor turnstile, certified by LPCB
11 Mar 2022
Challenge
In 2011, Frontier Pitts became the first manufacturer to achieve LPS 1175 certification for turnstiles. In 2019, Frontier Pitts began to see specifiers adopting the latest version of LPS 1175 (Issue 8) and specifying entire perimeters to specific LPS 1175 security ratings. This created a need for turnstiles and gates that delivered protection levels which matched the security ratings achieved by the adjacent fence line. As a result, Frontier Pitts launched their Platinum Turnstile; first released as a 90-degree 4 section walkway unit in December 2019. Commenting on behalf of Frontier Pitts, Sally Osmond said “Our ability to tailor the Terra Diamond turnstile to suit lower security ratings very quickly and economically was certainly helped by the experience we had gained being the first to develop an LPS 1175 rated turnstile and the extensive data set BRE had provided during the evaluation of that turnstile”.
More recently, Frontier Pitts were challenged to introduce a 120-degree rotor (3-winged) option into their turnstile range. Osmond commented “Many users prefer the 120-degree turnstiles because of the increased space it provides passing through, reducing the sense of claustrophobia.
