Q: How long does setup take after the demo?

Most properties go live in 30 days or less. Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo are hardware-free, so setup is cloud-based with no wiring or installation. Onboarding is white-glove: the team imports data from your current provider and trains staff, residents, and security personnel.

Q: How much does Gate Sentry cost?

Pricing is per-property, based on the number of gates, entrances, and units. Prospects receive an exact quote during the demo. Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo require no hardware purchases, installation, or equipment maintenance, so most properties save compared to ongoing callbox repair and service costs.

Q: Does the demo cost anything?

No. The demo is free, takes about 20 minutes, and requires no credit card and no commitment. A specialist reaches out within 1 business day of the form submission.

Demo Questions, Answered

Everything property managers ask before booking a Gate Sentry demo.

What happens during a Gate Sentry demo?

A Gate Sentry demo is a free 20-minute video call tailored to your property. A specialist walks through Gate Sentry for staffed gates and Sentry Solo for unmanned entrances, shows how residents, visitors, and guards use the system, and provides custom pricing for your gates and units that you can take to your board.

Can Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo be used together?

Yes — most communities use both. Gate Sentry runs the staffed main entrance, where guards check in visitors on a tablet, while Sentry Solo covers unmanned secondary gates, resident-only entrances, and amenities like the pool or clubhouse. Because both run on one platform, residents manage everything from a single app, and every entry — staffed or unmanned — appears in the same visitor log.

How long does setup take after the demo?

Most properties go live in 30 days or less. Because Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo are hardware-free, there is no wiring, construction, or installation crew — setup is cloud-based. Onboarding is white-glove: the Gate Sentry team imports your data from your current provider and trains your staff, residents, and security personnel.

Do we need to buy any hardware?

No. Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo replace callboxes, keypads, fob readers, and kiosks with software that runs on tablets and smartphones you already have. Visitors at unmanned gates scan a QR code and enter a temporary code in their phone's browser — no app download required.

How much does Gate Sentry cost?

Pricing is per-property, based on your number of gates, entrances, and units — you'll receive an exact quote during the demo that you can take to your board. Because Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo require no hardware purchases, installation, or equipment maintenance, most properties save compared to the ongoing cost of callbox repairs and service calls alone.

Does the demo cost anything?

No — the demo is free, takes about 20 minutes, and requires no credit card and no commitment. After you submit the form, a specialist reaches out within 1 business day, or you can call (800) 975-5971 directly.
