You can use the @CanActivate decorator that angular2 provides. You decorate the component that you want to restrict with a condition. More info can be found in the angular docs:

https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/router-deprecated.html#!#lifecycle-hooks

It has an example using a similar decorator called @CanDeactivate. This is a good starting point, customize it to your needs.
