A Platform Screen Door (PSD) is an automated glass door system installed along the platform edge of metro and train stations that opens in perfect sync when the train arrives. By preventing passengers from falling onto the tracks, it averts serious accidents. It also regulates airflow, temperature, and noise within the station, providing a more comfortable and secure travel experience. Widely adopted in modern urban transit networks, PSD systems elevate safety, energy efficiency, and hygiene standards in public transportation.
Learn more about Platform Screen Door (PSD) systems—an indispensable component of modern transit that enhances passenger safety in metro and rail stations.
PSD systems open and close automatically in perfect synchronization with train movements, ensuring maximum safety.
With a modern appearance that seamlessly integrates with station design, platform doors enhance your brand image.
Platform screen doors are physical barriers installed between the platform and tracks in train or metro stations. Their main functions include enhancing passenger safety, preventing accidents, and maintaining order within stations.
They also provide operational advantages such as managing sudden crowds at stations, controlling train arrivals, and improving air conditioning efficiency.
Platform screen door systems are categorized into three main types: fixed, automatic, and semi-automatic systems. Each has different technical specifications and application areas.
Platform screen door systems are used not only in metro systems but also in high-speed train stations, suburban lines, tram stops, and especially airport transfer platforms with heavy passenger circulation.
Passenger flow and safety are critically important in these areas, and platform screen door systems meet these needs.
Platform screen door systems provide significant advantages in terms of both physical and psychological safety. The key factors that improve passenger experience include:
Prevents passengers from falling onto tracks
Creates a sense of security for passengers
Platform screen door systems are successfully implemented in major metro lines worldwide. These projects demonstrate the development of modern transportation infrastructure globally.
Full-height platform screen doors with advanced safety features
Fully automated driverless system with synchronized PSD operation

Check Our ServicesA Platform Screen Door (PSD) is a safety system used on metros, trains and similar transit lines to enhance passenger security.
It provides a safe waiting area by establishing a physical barrier between the passenger and the train.
It provides safe boarding and alighting by opening in full synchronization with the train doors.
It increases life safety by preventing falling on the rails, pushing and similar accidents.
Platform Screen Door systems prevent passengers from falling onto the tracks, minimizing accidents.
The enclosed system maintains in-station climate control, delivering energy savings.
PSD systems that open simultaneously with train doors enable fast and safe boarding and alighting.
Compared with open platforms, it controls dust, noise, and drafts, creating a more comfortable environment.
For detailed information about PSD Contact
PSD is an automatic door system placed between passengers and rails in subway and train stations. It increases safety and prevents accidents.
When the train arrives at the station, the PSD doors open in synchronization with the train doors and boarding and alighting takes place safely.
In addition to safety, it provides energy savings, climate control, noise reduction and hygiene levels in stations.
It is actively used in some modern metro lines in big cities such as Istanbul and Ankara and is becoming widespread.
