Access control for construction that actually works on site

Facial recognition turnstiles that automate inductions, block non-compliant workers, and give your HSEQ team accurate records without the admin headache.

<2 seconds

average gate entry time, even at peak shift change

24/7

unattended access control, no gate guard required

100%

digital audit trail, every entry and every refusal

Zero

non-compliant site entries, enforced at the gate

Offline-capable

runs through site network outages

Why teams use Plexa for their access control

Most access systems bolt a turnstile onto a sign-in app, so non-compliant workers walk on. Plexa checks induction, SWMS, training, prestart and hold points at every entry, in real time, on one data model

<2 second entry, even at shift change

Gate flow does not become the bottleneck on a 200 worker site. Two-step authentication pulls existing records so workers do not re-enter details every site they move to.

Plexa People and Insurance

One record from gate to defect close-out

Who entered, when, with what compliance status, sits in the same dataset as the incident they witnessed, the SWMS they signed, the defect they raised, and the ESG hours they counted toward. One source of truth for HSEQ, site ops and finance.

Plexa Gates Status

Live gate status and analytics across every site

A single dashboard for every turnstile in your portfolio. Uptime, throughput, refusals, faults and queue times by gate, by site, by project. See which gate is flagging, which site is running hot at shift change, and which contractor is being blocked most often, without calling the site.

Plexa Access Methods

Face detection, RFID card and mobile app, all three work

Workers use whatever suits the job. Face for hands-full entry in PPE. Card for visitors and contractors. Mobile app when the worker has lost the card. No buddy-punching, no tailgating, no lost-card downtime.

Plexa Compliance Locked Users

Compliance enforced at the gate, not audited after the fact

Hold points block entry without a signed SWMS, current induction, valid ticket or attended prestart. Non-compliant workers do not get through the turnstile. The site stops being the place where compliance breaks down.

What the Turnstile is connected to

Most access systems sit in a silo. Plexa's gate is wired into the rest of the platform on day one.

Turnstile Diagram

Inductions

The gate enforces a current induction and routes the worker to the missing module if it has expired

SWMS

Entry blocks until the SWMS for today's task is signed

Hold points

Project, contractor or worker level holds block access until cleared

Mobile app

Workers see why they were blocked and clear it on the spot

RFID cards

For visitors, deliveries and contractors who prefer a cardWorkers see why they were blocked and clear it on the spot

Face detection

No shared cards, no buddy-punching, hands-full entry

Live headcount

Real-time count of who is on site, by company, by area

Emergency mustering

Evacuation pulls the live list, not a paper sign-in book

Audit trail

Every entry, every refusal, with timestamp and compliance status

Gate status and analytics

Live uptime, throughput, refusals and faults across every turnstile in the portfolio

Workbench dashboards

Access data flows into the same reporting your HSEQ team already uses
