How It Works
Three steps. No kiosks. No callboxes.
Residents pre-authorize their guests. Guards scan a pass on a tablet. Gate opens.
Residents send guest passes
Through a mobile app, residents pre-authorize guests by text or email. No phone calls to the guard.
Guards scan in seconds
Guests show their pass at the gate. Guards scan with a tablet and verify identity in under 5 seconds.
Board sees everything
Every entry is logged in the cloud. Board members can search visitor history from any device, any time.
The Old Way vs. The New Way
Upgrade your visitor management, not your hardware.
Most guards still use outdated tools that slow down the gate and cost the board a fortune.
- Guardhouse hardware replacement every 3–5 years
- Kiosks create 3–5 minute backups at the gate
- Weather wears out outdoor callboxes and scanners
- Desktop software needs local servers and IT support
- Vendor lock-in with custom outdoor electronics
- No proprietary hardware — runs on any standard tablet
- Sub-5-second entry with digital SentryPasses
- No kiosks, no call centers, no weather damage
- Guards trained free through Guard University
- Cloud-based logs visible to the board in real time

From One Board to Another
We built the system we wanted for our own community.
Stop paying for expensive hardware
We sat through the special assessment meetings. Gate Sentry replaces outdoor kiosks, callboxes, barcode printers, and desktop workstations with standard, off-the-shelf tablets. No $30K+ guardhouse buildouts.
Silence the resident complaints
Nothing kills a board meeting like residents complaining about a 5-minute wait at the gate. Residents now pre-authorize guests on their phone. Guards scan the pass. Entry takes under 5 seconds.
Protect the HOA and reduce liability
No more chasing down paper logs. Every entry is in the cloud and searchable from any device. The board can review visitor history and guard activity in real time.
The Platform
Everything your guards need. Nothing they don't.
01 / Independence
Hardware Independent
The guard workflow runs on a tablet the guard can hold or mount. No proprietary devices. When a shift changes, the next guard picks up where the last one left off.
02 / Speed
Resident SentryPass
Guests don't download an app. SentryPass sends digital passes by text or email that work on any phone. Guards scan and verify in seconds.
03 / Reliability
Offline Resilience
Internet down? Cell signal dropped? The Gate Sentry tablet keeps logging visitors locally and syncs to the cloud when it's back. Your gate keeps running.
04 / Communication
Automated Notifications
Residents get a push notification the moment their guest clears the gate. No more guard phone calls. No more "did they make it in?"
Common Questions
What HOA boards ask us.
How much does Gate Sentry cost?
Pricing scales by community size and the features you need. We're significantly less than traditional hardware-based systems — most communities see strong ROI in year one. Request a custom quote and we'll get in touch with pricing built for your community size.
How long does setup take?
Most HOAs are fully operational within weeks. No hardware installation. Just provision the tablets, complete Guard University training, and you're live.
Can we keep our existing gate hardware?
Yes. Gate Sentry works with your existing gate openers and barriers. We replace the visitor management software and outdoor electronics — not your physical gate.
What happens if our internet goes down?
Gate Sentry switches to offline mode and keeps logging visitors locally. When connectivity returns, all data syncs to the cloud. Your gate keeps running.
Do guards need extensive training?
No. Guards complete Guard University — our online training platform — before their first shift. Video lessons, hands-on modules, and certifications included free with every subscription.
Is the system secure?
Yes. Gate Sentry uses enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with encrypted data, role-based access controls, and full audit logs. All visitor data is securely stored.
What is Guard University?
Our online training platform for community security guards. Included free with every Gate Sentry subscription. Video courses, hands-on modules, and industry-recognized certifications.
