Door, Turnstile & Parking Access Control for a Mixed-Use Commercial Tower

INFINITE SYSTEMS PROJECTS

Seamless Security & Smart Entry Solutions for Offices, Retail, and Residences

Infinite Systems implemented an integrated
door and turnstile access control system in the Philippines
for a high-traffic mixed-use commercial property in Metro Manila.

The project combined Sensor Access door controllers,
Gunnebo pedestrian turnstiles,
Hikvision parking barriers and
Mitsubishi DOAS elevator integration within a coordinated
building-access environment.

Designed as part of the building turnover package, the system supports more than
20,000 daily badgeholders while controlling movement through
parking entrances, lobby turnstiles, secured doors and authorized elevator destinations.

Building Integration

Mixed-use commercial tower door turnstile parking and elevator access control project in Metro Manila Philippines
Integrated door access, pedestrian turnstiles, parking barriers and elevator
access for a mixed-use commercial property in Metro Manila.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

One Access Environment Across the Building

Mixed-use commercial developments typically contain several security boundaries.
Vehicles enter through controlled parking lanes, occupants pass through lobby
turnstiles, internal areas require secured doors, and elevator destinations may
also need to follow each user’s assigned permissions.

For this project, Infinite Systems delivered a coordinated architecture so these
different access points could operate as parts of the same building-security
environment rather than as isolated systems.


THE CHALLENGE

Preparing a Large Mixed-Use Property for Turnover and Occupancy

The main access-control infrastructure had to become operational while wider
construction, commissioning and occupancy-readiness activities were still being
coordinated across the property.

Multiple Access Points

Doors, lobby turnstiles and parking entrances needed coordinated credential
and user-permission policies.

High User Volume

The building required an access environment capable of supporting more
than 20,000 daily badgeholders.

Life-Safety Coordination

Access-controlled points had to be coordinated with the building’s
fire-safety requirements and emergency operating sequences.

Smart-Elevator Integration

The access-control system also needed to participate in Mitsubishi DOAS
destination-control elevator workflows.


WHAT WE IMPLEMENTED

Integrated Door, Turnstile, Parking and Elevator Access

The project combined several building-access technologies into one coordinated
security strategy, allowing property management to control movement from the
vehicle entrance through the lobby and into secured areas of the building.

DOOR ACCESS

Sensor Access Controllers

Sensor Access technology provides centralized management of secured doors,
users, schedules and access permissions throughout the property.

PEDESTRIAN ACCESS

Gunnebo Turnstiles

Controlled pedestrian lanes secure the building lobby while supporting
the throughput requirements of a large commercial development.

VEHICLE ACCESS

Hikvision Parking Barriers

Automated parking barriers control vehicle entry and form part of the
property’s overall access-management environment.

ELEVATOR ACCESS

Mitsubishi DOAS

Supported user permissions were integrated with the Mitsubishi Destination
Oriented Allocation System for controlled elevator workflows.

MONITORING

Centralized Oversight

Access events across supported doors, turnstiles and parking access points
can be monitored within a centralized security environment.

OPERATIONS

Phased Occupancy

User groups and permissions were configured to support employees, tenants,
visitors and contractors during the transition into normal operations.


INTEGRATED USER JOURNEY

From Parking Entry to Secured Floors

A key advantage of an integrated access architecture is that a user’s identity
and permissions can follow the person through multiple controlled areas of the property.

01

Enter the Property

Authorized vehicles enter through controlled parking barriers according
to the configured parking-access workflow.

02

Authenticate at the Lobby

Users present an authorized credential at the pedestrian turnstile before
entering the secured building zone.

03

Access Secured Areas

The same user profile can control entry to permitted doors and restricted
spaces within the building.

04

Receive Elevator Authorization

Supported permissions can be communicated to the Mitsubishi DOAS environment
for an approved destination and elevator assignment.

Integrated building workflow:

Parking access → turnstile authentication → secured door access → authorized elevator destination.

SMART ELEVATOR INTEGRATION

Mitsubishi DOAS Integrated With Building Access

The Mitsubishi Destination Oriented Allocation System was integrated with the
access-control environment so supported user permissions could participate in the
building’s elevator destination workflow.

Instead of treating lobby authentication and elevator dispatch as independent
processes, the integration allows the building to coordinate identity, entrance
security and permitted vertical movement.

Authenticate

Verify the user’s registered credential and assigned access rights.

Authorize

Determine the destination or vertical-access permissions assigned to that user.

Dispatch

Mitsubishi DOAS processes the destination request and assigns the appropriate elevator.


PROJECT OUTCOMES

The completed access-control environment helps property management control movement
throughout the building while reducing the need to administer doors, turnstiles,
parking access and elevator permissions as isolated systems.


ENGINEERING HIGHLIGHTS

Designed as an Integrated Building System

Door + Turnstile Coordination

A common access strategy helps ensure lobby entry and internal door permissions
remain consistent with each user’s assigned security profile.

Vehicle + Pedestrian Access

Parking barriers and pedestrian-access systems were incorporated into the
broader building security environment.

Elevator Integration

User authorization can participate in the Mitsubishi DOAS destination-control process.

Life-Safety Interface

Access-controlled devices must be coordinated with emergency release,
fire-alarm and life-safety requirements during system engineering.

GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Can doors, turnstiles and parking barriers use one access-control platform?

Yes, when the selected equipment and integration architecture support the
required interfaces. Centralized access management can help maintain consistent
permissions across several controlled entry points.

Can the same credential be used for doors, turnstiles and elevators?

Yes. A common credential strategy can be configured for multiple applications
where the selected controllers, readers and elevator interfaces are compatible.

Why coordinate access control with fire-alarm requirements?

Access-controlled devices may need to respond differently during emergency
conditions. Their release or operating sequence should therefore be coordinated
with the approved life-safety design.

Can Infinite Systems implement similar integrated commercial-building projects?

Yes. Infinite Systems can assess doors, turnstiles, parking barriers,
elevator integration and related security requirements and develop an
architecture suited to the actual property and installed systems.
