About Product
A flap barrier is the lane you specify when the constraint is throughput. Retractable wings clear the passage in under half a second and close behind each authorised person, so a queue keeps moving at walking pace instead of stopping at every credential.
It suits entrances that fill and empty in bursts - corporate lobbies and multi-tenant technology parks, plant gates at shift change, university and school entries at period change, and transit concourses. Anywhere the count has to be accurate but the crowd cannot be made to wait.
Aurotoshi builds three tiers of flap barriers ranging from brushless DC drive to whisper quiet Servo drives that can move over 35 people per minute.
Cabinets, wings and drive assemblies are manufactured in-house in Ghaziabad, and every lane runs on an Aurotoshi gate control unit built on the same floor. Proprietary firmware handles IR sensor arbitration across the array, passage timing, anti-tailgating and anti-pass-back logic, and fail-safe release on fire alarm. With complete control over the board, the drive and the firmware, custom passage sequences, integration changes and field replacements are handled directly rather than through a third party.
Features
High-precision BLDC motor opens and closes the wing in under 0.5 seconds.
Sustains 30 to 35 persons per minute through a 550 mm passage.
Up to six IR pairs; proprietary logic distinguishes tailgating and piggybacking from single passage.
RFID, QR, fingerprint, face and iris readers drive the lane over a pulse input.
Wings retract automatically on fire alarm or power loss, clearing the lane.
SS 304 hairline as standard; mechanism rated to 10 million cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common queries from facility managers, procurement heads, and plant engineers.
Economy FB242 is the cost-sensitive build - 1.2 mm cabinet, 6 mm acrylic wing, three IR pairs - and the only tier offering a 900 mm wide lane. Premium FB203 adds an illuminated 10 mm wing, five IR pairs and IP 54, in single or dual cabinet form. Luxe FB221 is the presentation build with a 12 mm wing, customisable to 18 mm, and six IR pairs. All three run the same drive and the same throughput.
Flap barriers are for throughput at high-footfall entrances - campuses, plants, schools and technology parks - where the wing clears in under half a second and the queue keeps moving. Swing barriers suit zones where a wider, more robust leaf and physical deterrence matter more than speed.
All models handle 30 to 35 persons per minute per lane, with opening and closing under 0.5 seconds on a brushless DC high-precision drive.
Yes. Anti-tailgating and anti-pass-back are standard, reinforced with multiple IR sensor pairs: 3 pairs on the Economy, 5 on the Premium, and 6 on the Luxe for the highest sensing density.
RFID, fingerprint, QR, face scan, iris and Morpho are all supported as options, through dry contact. Fire alarm auto-open and configurable fail-safe modes are standard.
Both use a retractable wing; however the logic and build specification behind each differs vastly. A flap barrier decides whether a person is authorised - the access-control system returns a yes or no and the wing opens. An AFC gate decides whether the journey has been paid for, applying fare rules, deducting value and reconciling entry against exit with the transit back office. Specify a flap barrier for building access, an AFC gate wherever the ticket carries a fare.
Standard models: 4 to 6 weeks from order confirmation. Custom models / bespoke changes: 8 to 10 weeks. Manufactured at our facility in Ghaziabad, with site survey typically within 3 working days of enquiry.
Yes. Aurotoshi offers Annual Maintenance Contracts covering drive and panel servicing, IR and access-control calibration, and breakdown response. As the OEM we hold spares inventory, so there is no third-party lead-time risk.
Yes. Aurotoshi is a dedicated pedestrian access control manufacturer since 1992, engineering and assembling in-house, supplying EPC contractors, ELV consultants and procurement teams with BOQ and submittal support.
