Home of the TotalCounter

Battery operated counters were introduced in 2004 and have become more reliable over the years. Today, our counters use standard batteries that can be found in most stores. Select from sensors installed on the side of the entrance or on the ceiling above the entrance. Some sensors can even be used outside to count people walking – or cars driving – by your facility. We Count People is committed to give our customers a range of products that meet their technical and financial needs. Please contact for guidance in what solution may best fit you.

Typical AccuraCounter Accuracy

The physics of a beam break people counter means that if two people walk through side-by-side, they will be counted as one. And if a group of people walk through at the same time, it is unlikely that all of them will be counted. ALL infrared beam-interrupt people counters work in the same way. On a single door entrance (typically 36″ wide), most people enter one at a time, so the counting accuracy is typical very high (93 to 95%). But on a double-door entrance – this typical accuracy can drop to 80 to 85%.

Why Collect Hourly Counts?

When we are consulting with our customers and helping them decide which people counter best meets their needs, we often here the question that goes something like, ‘why would I want to spend extra money in order to know how many people came in each and every hour?’.

TotalCounterFF Front-Firing

Battery operated counters were first introduced in 2004 and have proven to be very reliable. This unit is called 'Front-firing' because the counting signal comes from the large front of the counter. Users walk to the counter display to view the total IN and OUT count and then reset the display to zero.

This transmitted infrared beam-break counter is priced at $299 plus shipping.

TotalCounterIO In-Out-Occupancy

We took the TCFF above, added another set of infrared beams, modified the on-board firmware and now users can view the Total IN count, Total OUT count, and occupancy No need to divide the counts by two.

Priced at $385 plus shipping.

TotalCounterOH Overhead

The TCOH installs on the ceiling above the entrance. It was introduced only a few years ago and quickly became a customer favorite. The sensor on the ceiling is battery operated so is easy to install. It wirelessly sends the total count to a remote display.

Priced at $299 plus shipping.

TotalCounterSF Side-Firing

This is a 'side-firing' counter because the counting beam comes from the narrow 'side' of the counter. This feature, plus the small size of the counter, makes it perfect for installing on the 2-inch frame found around most entrances. Walk to the counter to read the total count from the display and reset to zero.

Priced at $299 plus shipping.

TotalCounterSS Single-Sided

This is the TCOH from above, but installed on the side of the door, instead of the ceiling. Some customers use the outdoor sensor option to count cars thru drive thru lanes and drop-off lanes. With the wireless remote display indoors, it is easy to see the outside count.

Priced at $299 plus shipping.

TotalCounter Hourly Counter

MAXX uses an industrial sensor that it is rated for outdoor applications, The sensor has adjustable sensitivity levels and easy to see go/no-go alignment lights. The display has a battery to save counts during loss of ac-power, but does not include a chime nor an automatic divisor.

Priced at $299 plus shipping.
