Access barrier, related devices and related methods
12180778 · 2024-12-31 · ·

An access control device includes a primary access barrier configured move between a closed position and an open position. The primary access barrier may be configured to extend into an access passage of the access control device to prevent access through the access passage when in the closed position and to move away from the access passage to permit access through the access passage when in an open position. An entry access barrier is positionable in the access passage of the access control device on a first side of the primary access barrier, and an exit barrier is positionable in the access passage of the access control device on a second side of the primary access barrier opposite the first side. Systems and methods relate to access control devices.
