Features / Visitor & gate management

Visitor & gate management

Give residents the choice and gate teams the information they need, from expected visitors to everyday deliveries.

From request to decision

Approvals that connect
the resident and the gate.

The guard sends a visitor request to the home. The resident accepts or rejects it, and the gate team can act on the confirmed status.

  • Visitor name and home are the essentials
  • Separate approval for each home in a multi-home visit
  • Call fallback when the resident does not respond
  • Approved-over-call and no-approval entry records

Visitor and access tools

Ready for the way people arrive.

Visitor approvals

Residents receive a gate request and accept or reject it from their phone. Guards can see the decision in their entry queue.

Pre-approved visitors

Add expected guests by name and number of people, with a 24-hour permission window. No visitor phone is required.

Visitor & home-staff passes

Create shareable QR passes. Guards can scan a pass or find matching passes using a code or mobile number.

Delivery permissions

Residents can pre-allow a delivery for up to 24 hours. Guards record the arrival against the home.

Multi-home visits

Record a visitor heading to multiple homes in one flow, with a separate approval for each home.

Entry & exit history

Review recorded entries, exits and visitor status. Entry-only mode supports societies that do not record exits.

Vehicles & resident phonebook

Find residents by home or vehicle registration and use the phone’s regular calling service to contact them.

Kids’ exit permissions

Residents can allow a specified number of children to leave during a one-hour permission window.

Call security

Residents can call the gate using society-configured numbers. Multiple gate contacts are available when configured.

Emergency alerts

Guards can raise a society-wide emergency alert using a swipe confirmation to help avoid accidental alarms.

Focused guard workflow

A shared gate phone can handle scanning, manual visitors and approvals without individual duty start/end actions.

Auto-approval controls

Residents can enable automatic approval. Admin controls also support homes that do not use the app.

Designed for the gate team

Keep the next action
easy to find.

A focused home screen brings pending and approved requests together. Mark entry, call a resident or record a rejection without chasing a long list.

The phonebook supports flat-wise sorting and vehicle-number search. Visitors and activity history remain available separately.
