Modular Security Ecosystem

One Platform. Every Entrance Covered.

Whether you need professional guest check-in at a staffed gate or mobile access at unmanned amenities, our platform scales to your property's security needs and eliminates hardware like callboxes, keypads, and fob readers.

For Guests & Vendors

Flexible Entry for Staffed & Unmanned Access

At staffed entrances, staff check guests in with a SentryPass. At unmanned entrances, guests tap a SoloPass, and vendors scan the SentrySign to enter their VirtualKeypad code.

  • Staffed check-in with SentryPass: Guests save the pass to Apple Wallet, it pops up as they arrive, and the front desk or valet scans it.
  • Unmanned entry with SoloPass: Guests tap to open with a pass tied to their phone, with no app, account, or code.
  • Vendor entry with SentrySign: Vendors scan the QR code, which opens VirtualKeypad in their browser, and enter their unique code.
  • One link for both: At properties with both, guests get one link with their SentryPass and SoloPass.

Unify and Streamline All Operations

Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo give your security team complete control by bringing staffed and unmanned entry points into one platform.

  • Ban alerts: The tablet alerts staff when an arriving visitor is on the ban list, and ID capture is optional.
  • Monitor unmanned access: See activity at unstaffed entry points, with every entry logged in real time.
  • Offline mode: The tablet keeps working without Wi-Fi during network outages and syncs when the connection returns.
  • One dashboard: Manage check-ins, track event attendance, and see entry activity at every amenity.

No On-Site Security? No Problem

Unmanned Gates and Entrances Run on Sentry Solo

Not every entrance at a club or resort has a guard. Back gates, dock access, pool decks, and clubhouse doors can run on Sentry Solo, our self-service product, so members, guests, and vendors get in from their phone. It eliminates hardware like callboxes, keypads, and kiosks.

VirtualKey

Members Open Gates From Their Phone

Members and staff open dock gates, pool decks, and clubhouse doors with one tap in the app. Access can be limited by entrance or schedule, and every entry is logged.

SoloPass

Guests Tap to Open

Members send guests a SoloPass by text or email. Guests open it on their phone and tap to open the entrance, with no app, account, or code. Access can be one-time, temporary, or permanent.

VirtualKeypad & Intercom

Vendors and Unexpected Visitors

Vendors scan the SentrySign QR code and enter their unique code in their browser. Visitors without a code use the built-in Intercom to call the member by address, and names and personal numbers are never shown.

Run your staffed main gate on Gate Sentry and your unmanned entrances on Sentry Solo, all from one dashboard.

Hospitality FAQ

Questions From Clubs & Resorts

Does Gate Sentry require any hardware at the gate?
Only a tablet at staffed entrances. Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo eliminate hardware like callboxes, keypads, fob readers, and kiosks, and they work with the gate operators a club or resort already has. At unmanned entrances, the only thing posted is a SentrySign with a QR code for vendors.
How do guests get in at an unmanned entrance like a pool, dock, or back gate?
Unmanned entrances run on Sentry Solo, our self-service product. Guests tap a SoloPass on their phone to open the entrance, with no app, account, or code. Vendors scan the SentrySign QR code to open the VirtualKeypad in their browser and enter a unique code. Members and staff open gates, docks, pools, and clubhouses with VirtualKey, and every entry is logged automatically.
Can Gate Sentry and Sentry Solo be used together at one property?
Yes, and many clubs and resorts use both. Gate Sentry runs your staffed main entrance, where officers check in members and guests on a tablet, while Sentry Solo handles unmanned entrances like back gates, docks, pools, and clubhouses. Guests get one link with both a SentryPass and a SoloPass, and administrators see every entrance in one dashboard.
What types of hospitality properties does Gate Sentry support?
Gate Sentry serves country clubs, yacht clubs, marinas, resorts, and leisure clubs. Whether a property has on-site security at a staffed gatehouse or relies on self-service entry points, the platform adapts to its visitor flow and access needs.
Can members register guests for an event?
Yes. Members can create an event and upload a guest list instead of calling it in to the gate. Guards check each guest in from the tablet, and administrators keep a record of every event and who attended.
What happens at a staffed gate during an internet outage?
The Gate Sentry check-in tablet keeps working in offline mode, so staff keep checking in members and guests without Wi-Fi, and every logged check-in syncs once the connection is restored.
How long does it take a club or resort to go live?
Most properties are live in 30 days or less. Onboarding is white-glove: the Gate Sentry team imports your member and guest data, configures your entrances, and trains your staff. Schedule a demo to see how it would work at your property.
