This is an important part of your gym. But it needn’t be expensive.
Access control is one of the biggest headaches for many gyms. Traditionally quite an expensive outlay, the entire security and revenue of your gym depends on it. Access control means giving the right people easy access while keeping out the threats, the expired-memberships members, the chancers and the vagabonds. All this demands a robust system, which Wellyx has.
Any enterprise hoping to maximize its profit will have to maximize its opening times. And that means being able to distinguish someone coming in for a late night workout, from someone who wants a warm place to sleep for the night. Wellyx makes all of that easy.
Turnstiles are great for high volume flow where there is some oversight to prevent jump overs.
They make exiting easy and have a relatively low footprint. However, they do require solid installation to the floor and this will need permission from the landlord of the building you are operating from.
Speed gates are ideal for high-traffic areas requiring fast and seamless access control. Their sleek design ensures a modern look while effectively preventing unauthorized entry.
They offer a wider passage than turnstiles, making them more accessible. However, they require more space and may need additional safety sensors for smooth operation in crowded environments.
Magnetic locks provide a secure and reliable way to control access without physical key mechanisms. They use powerful electromagnets to keep doors locked until access is granted via keycards, codes, or biometric scanners.
These locks are easy to install and work well in high-security areas. However, they require a constant power source and may need backup systems in case of power failures.
Strike electric locks are a versatile access control solution that works with traditional door latches, releasing the lock electronically when access is granted. They are commonly used in offices, residential buildings, and secured facilities.
Unlike magnetic locks, they do not require continuous power and can be configured for fail-safe or fail-secure modes based on security needs. However, proper alignment is crucial for smooth operation.
When you buy Wellyx software, you can connect it directly to whichever gate system you like. While many gym management software options require you to use an interface system that can cost hundreds of dollars per month in subscription fees, Wellyx already has that built in. No wonder so many gyms love this feature! It eliminates an unnecessary ongoing cost. The system will integrate effortlessly with your chosen access control. Why not talk to one of our experts to find out more?
We recommend a combination of locks that play to their particular strengths: magnetic locks for ease of installation, strike locks for security at main entry points, and turnstiles for smooth flow at reception.
Any competent installer will be able to install any of the four types of systems. Simply show them the circuit diagram given here, and everything will be explained.
