Residential Gate Operators
Residential gate operators are the most affordable and come in a variety of brands and specifications. For homes with large or heavy gates, or those that experience a lot of vehicle traffic, it may be necessary to upgrade to commercial gate operators or consider automated entry systems.
Slide or Cantilever Gates
Vertical Lift - Pivot Gates
Residential Gate Operators
Slide gates are primarily utilized for wider roads or driveways, particularly when it is impractical for a gate to swing open. These designs are commonly employed when the gate itself is heavier than a swing gate, making them ideal for various applications, including automated entry systems. Additionally, commercial or industrial gates often feature Slide or Cantilever styles.

A vertical lift gate is a type of gate that lifts upwards. It serves as an effective barrier option in situations that do not allow for swing or slide gates, due to space restrictions or sloped terrain. These gates are often integrated into automated entry systems and are commonly used for commercial, government, gated communities, and residential estates.
Swing Gates

Most personal properties use single or double swing gates. Swing gates are generally more beautiful and aren't just for security purposes; they can also enhance the aesthetic appeal and value of the property. To accommodate automated entry systems, you will need to ensure there is enough space clearance for the gate to swing open and shut.

Card Readers
The purpose of a card reader, as part of automated entry systems, is to facilitate access for authorized individuals into desired areas or facilities. This means that users no longer have to wait at the gate or reception area, gaining faster and easier access. Additionally, entry and exit can be more easily tracked. Generally, card readers are more expensive than keypads.
Keypads
Automated entry systems, such as keypad systems, allow companies to restrict entry permission, even when using a correct code, during certain hours of the day or night. Businesses can also install a keypad entry system within the interior of a building, further restricting access to specific parts of the facility.
Telephone Entry Systems
Telephone Entry Systems
An automated entry system connects to a telephone line (or in some models, cellular is an option) and allows visitors to call the business or individual they are visiting. The entry system’s base station has a speaker, enabling communication between the guest and the individual. With the push of a button, the resident can grant access remotely, allowing the visitor to enter.
Long Distance Access

Telephone Entry Systems
In special situations such as rural locations or large facilities where an outdoor wired solution is not feasible, automated entry systems can utilize a long distance relay, which can extend up to 40 miles with relay stations.
Remotes

Biometrics
A remote transmitter is a device that sends signals to another device. The type of signal and the device it controls depend on the transmitter. A common type of transmitter remote, which is often used in automated entry systems, goes in the car and transmits to the gate operator or garage door. These operate within a short signal range. These remotes can have up to 4 buttons to handle several gates or garage doors.

Long Distance Access
Biometrics
A high level of securing access can include automated entry systems that utilize a biometric reading device. These systems identify and authenticate an individual's identity through any or all of these: fingerprints, facial image, iris, or voice recognition. Among these methods, fingerprint reading is the most common use of this technology.
