What the ZKTeco FBL720 Flap Barrier Offers for Entrance Control
The ZKTeco FBL720 is a single-lane flap barrier turnstile built for controlled entrance access, combining SUS304 stainless steel construction with an acrylic flap barrier. It verifies users through card or fingerprint authentication, opens or closes in 0.8 seconds, and handles up to 30 people per minute — making it suitable for offices, factories, and institutional entrances.
What the ZKTeco FBL720 Flap Barrier Offers for Entrance Control
A flap barrier moves more people per minute than any other entrance type ZKTeco publishes figures for — 42 with RFID cards against a tripod's 30 — and the retracting flaps disappear into the pedestal when open, which is why they suit a lobby.
They are also four times the weight of a tripod and need considerably more floor space. The footprint on the FBL2000 series is 1200 by 1150 millimetres per lane.
Key Features of the ZKTeco FBL720 Flap Barrier
42 per minute with RFID — The highest in the ZKTeco pedestrian range — and 35 with fingerprint, 23 with vein, 11 with face recognition. That last figure is the one that ruins projects: a lane rated at 42 behind a face terminal runs at 11.
Retracting flaps and optional capacitor board — Barriers retract upward, and the capacitor board makes that automatic. On power loss, the flaps pull back into the pedestal. Order the optional capacitor board. Without it, a power cut can leave the lane shut with people on the secure side.
1200 by 1150 millimetres of floor per lane — The published footprint on the FBL2000 series, at 119 kg net. Worth checking against a lobby drawing before the order, because retrofitting a flap barrier into a space designed for a tripod does not work.
LCD on the control board — Status and fault codes are readable at the unit rather than requiring a laptop, which is the difference between a ten-minute service call and an afternoon.
Sizing the Entrance Control System
Properly planning your security turnstile and flap barrier installation requires careful traffic analysis:
Count peak-hour arrivals. Not daily headcount. A factory of 3,000 arrives across twenty minutes.
Check the credential, not just the lane. The reader is almost always the bottleneck.
Include one wide lane. Wheelchairs, trolleys, and beds do not pass a standard aperture.

Complete Installation
What else you need for a working Kit
A single device is only part of a complete security or automation setup. Most projects need matching accessories, software and power components, chosen according to your site and requirements. You can start with a basic use case and upgrade later by adding the recommended supporting devices.
Yes, with caution — it's rated for indoor/sheltered outdoor use only, working across -28°C to 60°C. "Sheltered" means covered from direct rain and sun exposure; an open, unroofed entrance isn't a supported installation without additional weatherproofing.
The FBL720 uses retracting acrylic flaps instead of rotating arms, giving a wider, more accessible passage (600 mm lane) and a more premium appearance — common in corporate lobbies. Tripod turnstiles are typically cheaper and more compact but feel more industrial and offer less passage width.
Yes — it supports standard RFID and fingerprint access control integration, so it can feed into most time-attendance and access-management platforms. Confirm your specific software's compatibility (Wiegand/RS485 output, etc.) with our engineers before ordering.
A single-lane FBL720 installation usually takes half a day to a full day per lane, including floor fixing, cabling, and commissioning — longer if integration with existing access software or multiple lanes is involved.
Yes — survey, lane sizing by peak-hour footfall, installation, and software integration. Get lane count right the first time; it's the one thing no equipment change can fix later.
