What is gate access control?
 
 
 
Gate access control is managing access into and out of a gated property. It’s how you ensure that tenants and authorized visitors can enter your property while restricting access to unauthorized people. Controlling access at your gate keeps your property secure and your tenants safe.
 

What is a residential access control system?

A residential access control system is a solution for automating access to a residential property to make sure only authorized people can enter. Access control systems are installed at entrances, gates, interior doors, throughout the building. There are many different types of residential access control systems, but all share the common goal of making buildings more secure and making access more convenient.

Building access control systems can be as simple as traditional metal keys and locks. However, investing in the right solution is a simple, affordable, and efficient way to improve your property, so it’s worth considering the options available to you. While an old-fashioned lock-and-key system keeps out unauthorized visitors, it’s not convenient for your current residents and staff to manage. For more information About Gate Automation and Gate Accessories Click Here.

How to manage access at residential properties

All entryways, from gates to doors, can benefit from access control to ensure that only authorized people pass through. Gate and door access control systems allow you to keep entrances locked and secure 24/7 so that only approved residents, staff, and guests can access the space.

Most access control systems include the following components:

  • Control panel: The control panel stores data on tenants and their access permissions. Older access controllers often use a physical device on-site Like a gate motor, but many newer systems store this data in the cloud, so it’s accessible remotely.
  • Credentials: There are many different types of credentials. Your building may use metal keys still, or perhaps you’ve upgraded to Remote Controls that operates a gate motor or Smart access control systems that can even use mobile devices or fingerprints as credentials. In the end, all credentials serve the same purpose of storing data on who the user is and what they can access.
  • Reader: Every entryway needs a reader or gate station to manage access and scan credentials. With a traditional metal lock and key, the door opens as long as the key fits. But with more high-tech solutions, readers scan credentials then send encrypted data to the control panel. The control panel operates the gate opener if the user is authorized to enter.
  • Door release mechanism: The door release mechanism is a device that unlocks the door so tenants, visitors, and staff can enter after scanning their credentials. It receives messages from the control panel when an authorized user is at the door and unlocks it so they can enter. This is also known as Pedestrian gate Automation.
