Turnstiles are becoming a popular choice for offices, gyms, schools, factories, and public facilities in Kenya due to their effectiveness in controlling access and enhancing security. But how much does it cost to install a turnstile system?
At Moffam Electricals, we provide a breakdown of the factors that affect pricing, the types of turnstiles available, and what you should consider before investing in one.
Factors That Affect the Cost of Turnstile Installation in Kenya
The price of turnstile installation depends on several key factors:
-
Type of turnstile (waist-height, full-height, speed gates, swing gates).
-
Access control integration (biometrics, RFID cards, QR code readers).
-
Number of lanes/units required.
-
Location and site preparation costs.
-
Maintenance and after-sales support packages.
Types of Turnstiles and Their Price Ranges
Different turnstile models come with varying costs depending on features and applications.
Full-Height Turnstiles – Pricing and Security Benefits
These provide maximum security and are commonly used in factories, stadiums, and high-security facilities. They are generally more expensive due to their robust build and advanced locking mechanisms.
Waist-Height Turnstiles – Affordable and Practical Options
Popular in offices, schools, and gyms, waist-height turnstiles are cost-effective and reliable for daily use, making them a good balance between price and functionality.
Speed Gates & Swing Gates – Modern but Costlier Choices
For premium facilities such as corporate offices, government buildings, and high-end gyms, speed gates and swing gates provide a sleek, modern look with higher pricing due to their advanced design and technology.
Additional Costs: Access Control Integration and Maintenance
Beyond the physical turnstile, costs may also include:
-
Biometric integration (fingerprint, face recognition).
-
RFID card or QR code readers.
-
Software integration for membership or employee management.
-
Maintenance contracts to keep the system running smoothly.
How to Choose the Right Turnstile for Your Budget
When selecting a turnstile system, consider:
-
Security needs (high vs. medium security).
-
Budget and long-term maintenance costs.
-
Aesthetic requirements for your facility.

Number of daily users and entry/exit points.
