Anylogic Pedestrian Queue and Service Points

I have a model representing people arriving to security control. There is a queue in front of the building where the security control is held. In this building, I have several queues based on pedestrians' parameters (nationality, age,...) and I have a problem that once the queue in the building is full and the time spent in queue increases, the pedestrians waiting in the queue outside start to walk away or in opposite direction and they actually enter the model several times...which causes inadequate outputs in time spent in a queue...

Can anyone please give me I hint on how to solve it? I need them to wait in a queue outside until the queue inside has space for them...

Thanks!

Best model it like this: have an outside queue and an inside queue, separated by enough space.

Add a "Hold" object (from the process modelling library) in between them and use it to manually "let through" 1 pedestrian from the outside queue once the inside queue has space.

Check example models and the help to learn more about the "Hold" element, really useful to use here
