Access control for gates and doors.

Credentialed entry that still works when the internet doesn't. Phone and app entry, keypads, card and fob readers, video intercom — every opening logged, every credential revocable from anywhere.

Access control is the difference between a gate that opens and a gate that knows who opened it. A clicker is a key anyone can pass on, and nobody can tell you afterwards who used it. A credential is issued to a person, revoked in seconds, and leaves a record — which is why almost every access job we do starts with a client who has lost count of how many remotes are out there.

We design around two questions: who needs in, and what happens when something fails. Credentials live at the door or the gate, so codes and cards keep working with no internet at all. Fire access, egress hardware and manual release are specified before anything else, because an access system that traps people in an emergency has failed no matter how well it logs.

Access control on its own tells you a code was used. Paired with an automated gate, cameras on the same entry point and a network that stays up, each entry has a name, a timestamp and video attached — which is the Complete Security Gate System.

01 — HOW IT WORKS
CORE SPEC

Credentials, logs and what happens when the internet drops

The two questions that decide an access system are how people identify themselves and what the hardware does on its own when the cloud, the power or the network is gone. Credentials are stored locally so entry survives an outage; events queue and sync when the link returns. Fail-safe or fail-secure is a decision per opening, not a default, and every gate keeps a manual release.

We install on gates we built and gates we didn't, replace aging intercoms and dead keypads, and take over systems installed by someone who has since disappeared.

Phone & app entry

Residents open from a phone; visitors get a code that expires. No clickers to chase.

Keypads & codes

Per-person codes rather than one shared PIN, so a departure is one deletion.

Cards, fobs & mobile credentials

Readers at gates and doors, credentials issued and revoked centrally.

Video intercom

See and talk to whoever is at the entrance, from the phone you already carry.

Cloud management & audit log

Who opened what and when, exportable, from any browser.

Locked out now

Dead keypad, failed board, nobody can get in — we dispatch across SoCal.

02 — WHAT WE INSTALL
OPTIONS

Entry methods we install

Which one fits comes down to how many people need in, how often that list changes, and whether anyone is on site to answer the door.

Telephone & app entry

Telephone & app entry

Visitor calls, resident answers on their phone and opens the gate from anywhere. The default for homes and small multi-tenant sites.

Video intercom

Video intercom

See who is asking before you open. Directory panels for multi-unit, single stations for a house.

Keypads & code entry

Keypads & code entry

Cheapest credentialed entry that still logs. One code per person, not one code for everyone.

PHOTO NEEDED
acc-type-reader.webp — card / fob reader close-up

Card, fob & mobile readers

Doors and gates on the same credential. Mobile credentials remove the hardware entirely.

PHOTO NEEDED
acc-type-lpr.webp — license plate reader

License plate & long-range

Known vehicles open the gate without stopping. Built for yards and fleets with constant traffic.

Integration work

Existing platform, odd operator, property-management software that has to receive the events — tell us what it has to talk to.

04 — HOW WE BUILD
4 STEPS

How we build an access system

01

Site walk

Every opening, who uses it, how often the user list changes, and what power and network reach it.

02

System design

Credential type, fail-safe or fail-secure per door, offline behavior and fire access, in writing.

03

Install & program

Hardware mounted, wired and programmed — every credential tested at every opening.

04

Handover & support

You are shown how to add and revoke users yourself, and we stay on call when something stops answering.

05 — WHAT DRIVES COST
5 FACTORS

What drives the cost of access control

Hardware is rarely the biggest line — wiring and user count usually are. These are the five things that move an access quote, in the order they usually matter.

FACTOR
WHY IT MATTERS
Openings
Every gate and door you want credentialed, each with its own hardware and wiring.
Credential type
Codes are cheapest, cards and fobs mid, mobile and plate recognition highest.
Wiring & network runs
Conduit, trenching and getting data and power to a gate 300 feet from the building.
Users & tenants
Ten users and two hundred are different systems, and directories add hardware.
Cloud vs on-prem
A subscription with remote management, or a local controller with no recurring fee.

Access control FAQs

What happens when the internet goes down?

Credentials are stored at the door or gate, so codes, cards and fobs keep working with no internet and no cloud. What you lose until it reconnects is remote unlocking, issuing new credentials and live event history — which then syncs.

Can I add access control to a gate operator I already have?

Usually yes — almost any operator takes a dry-contact input, so a keypad, reader or intercom can drive it. We check the board and the safety devices first, because adding credentials to an unsafe gate multiplies the problem.

Can residents open the gate with a phone instead of a clicker?

Yes, and most clients switch for the admin alone: the phone opens the gate, codes are issued and revoked remotely, and there is no hardware to lose or collect back.

Can I see who came in and when?

Yes. Every credentialed entry writes to an audit log you can export, and with a camera on the same entry point each event has video attached to it.
