Safety is not just a commitment; it is something we put into action.

Gangcheng Middle School in Zhanjiang, Guangdong, has completed a comprehensive upgrade of its entrance access control system. Featuring a smart access solution with movable turnstiles, the upgraded system offers flexible access management, efficient passage, and safety compliance, strengthening the first line of defense for campus security.

Safety is the foundation of education and a fundamental requirement for campus operations. As a quality secondary school in Zhanjiang, Gangcheng Middle School has consistently pursued excellence in education while continuously improving its campus security systems to protect the daily lives of more than 4,000 students and staff.

To address common campus management challenges, including congestion during arrival and dismissal, mixed pedestrian and vehicle traffic, limited flexibility of fixed turnstiles, and the risk of obstructing fire access routes, Gangcheng Middle School recently completed an intelligent entrance access control upgrade in collaboration with a professional campus security solutions provider.

The project successfully introduced a movable turnstile solution tailored to primary and secondary school environments, using smart technology to support more secure, efficient, and flexible campus management.

Unlike traditional fixed turnstile installations, which often involve lengthy construction, road surface damage, inflexible layouts, and limited emergency access, this school-enterprise collaboration was designed around the school's actual entrance layout, pedestrian flow patterns, and fire safety requirements.

The customized solution required no ground excavation, minimized on-site construction, and avoided disruption to normal teaching activities. Equipment commissioning and deployment were completed efficiently, delivering a new level of intelligent access management for the campus.

Four Key Advantages for Comprehensive Campus Management

Movable Design with Separate Pedestrian and Vehicle Access

The movable turnstiles are equipped with quiet locking casters, allowing them to be repositioned and deployed quickly.

During peak arrival and dismissal periods, the turnstiles can be arranged to establish dedicated pedestrian passages, guiding students to enter in an orderly manner through card or facial recognition verification and reducing crowding at the entrance.

Outside peak hours, the turnstiles can be moved to the side to open up the entrance, allowing staff vehicles and delivery vehicles to pass through smoothly.

During large campus events, emergency evacuations, or fire safety inspections, the equipment can be moved aside promptly to clear the passage.

Fire access routes remain unobstructed, while the entrance layout can adapt flexibly to changing campus requirements.

Fast Intelligent Verification for Smooth, Traceable Access

Equipped with a high-definition live facial recognition system, the turnstiles provide accurate identification and rapid access verification, improving entrance efficiency and helping reduce queues during morning and afternoon peak periods.

The system also incorporates anti-tailgating and anti-pinch safety features designed to accommodate the needs of student users.

All entry and exit records are automatically stored and traceable, enabling the school to monitor access activity in real time and verify external visitors through identity checks.

These features help strengthen campus security right at the entrance.

Lightweight Installation with Minimal Disruption to the Campus

Drawing on the implementation experience of its campus security solutions provider, the project was designed according to the school's site conditions, combining fixed turnstiles with a 90-degree rotating movable arrangement.

The upgrade avoided the complicated construction procedures associated with traditional ground excavation, trenching, and embedded wiring. The equipment can be assembled and powered on for use, significantly simplifying installation.

With a shorter construction period, less noise, and no damage to the campus pavement or landscaping, the project minimized disruption to teaching activities and pedestrian movement.

The result is an efficient, convenient, and high-quality access control upgrade without extensive construction work.

Durable and Reliable for High-Frequency Campus Use

The turnstiles feature a reinforced 304 stainless steel structure, offering impact resistance, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning. They are designed to withstand frequent daily use and changing outdoor weather conditions.

Multiple intelligent safety mechanisms are incorporated into the equipment. When an obstruction is detected, the system automatically stops or adjusts operation to help prevent pinching injuries.

These features provide an added layer of protection for students while supporting long-term reliability in demanding school environments.

Working Together to Build a Safer, Smarter Campus

The successful completion of the entrance access control upgrade at Gangcheng Middle School reflects the school's strong commitment to campus safety and rigorous project management. It also demonstrates the professional solution design, reliable equipment, and efficient implementation capabilities of its project partner, Shenzhen Jieshida Technology Co., Ltd.

As a professional provider of intelligent campus security solutions, Jieshida specializes in entrance access management, access control upgrades, and smart passage systems for primary and secondary schools, vocational schools, and universities.

With extensive experience in campus applications, the company understands school security requirements, fire safety standards, and the practical needs of campus management.

Its solutions focus on flexible adaptation, efficient deployment, and safety compliance, helping educational institutions upgrade their security systems with cost-effective, application-specific intelligent equipment and build safer, more orderly, and smarter learning environments.

From traditional personnel-based security to coordinated management combining physical security and intelligent technology, Gangcheng Middle School continues to improve its facilities and management systems, demonstrating its commitment to student safety through practical action.

Looking ahead, the school will continue working with its project partner to advance intelligent campus security, strengthen its safety management framework, and provide a safer environment for students to learn and grow.

A Flexible Access Solution for Schools with Limited Space

For schools facing space constraints, needing to separate pedestrian and vehicle traffic, prioritizing fire safety compliance, or seeking to avoid extensive construction, movable turnstiles offer a practical and flexible option for entrance renovation.

With cost-effective deployment, efficient installation, and adaptable access management, this solution helps address common campus entrance challenges.
