Toilet turnstiles provide useful audit trail and maximum flow capacity


Guinea Street Exeter toilet under threatThe Environment and Leisure department of Exeter city council has threatened to close nearly 40 per cent of its public toilets because it needs to save more than £50,000 from its budget. The toilets listed for closure were in Guinea Street, Buddle Lane, Cowick Lane, Blackboy Road, Oakhampton Street, Musgrave Row, Higher Cemetery, King William Street, Hamlin Lane and Ennerdale Way. Some of those on the list have been targeted by vandals and illegal drug users.

Local councils can keep their toilets open by installing revenue-increasing coin operated turnstiles from Time and Attendance South West. Including integrated payment systems, they are manufactured from graded stainless steel for ease of cleaning and maintenance and are duty cycle rated for intensive use. High security options are available with additional counters to count the number of entries made – this along with the coin count can provide a useful audit trail to measure use of the facility. Perfect for high volumes of traffic, our turnstiles provide maximum flow capacity, whilst causing minimal disruption.
