To improve throughput:
• Instruct users to have their credentials ready for presentation prior to arrival at the gate.
• Keep the gate entry and exit areas free of obstructions and dissuade users from talking or
congregating in those areas.

Operational & Safety Considerations
• Users may move briskly, but should not run due to safety considerations.
• Users should not stop and linger in the gate swing path. Lingering slows throughput and may trigger an
alarm condition. The barrier may also impact the user while closing.
• Users with large bags, hand trucks, boxes, etc, should verify their combined width does not exceed
passage width prior to entering the gate.
Alvarado follows what we call the “right-hand rule." Card
readers are installed on the right-hand side as the user
enters the gate from the unsecured side [Figure 26].
1. Present the card to the card reader. Card read range
varies from reader to reader. A best practice is to
physically touch the card to the card read area.
2. Upon card validation:
• Barrier moves to the open position.
3. Promptly walk through the gate.
•
Barrier remains open for the defined dwell
time (default is 6 seconds), after which it
returns to the closed position.
The SW1000 gate may be controlled by an access control system or a security desk button. The following instructions
assume the gate is controlled by an access control system with a card reader for validating credentials.
