Types of Remote Control Systems We Offer
We provide remote control systems that fit different needs and preferences. These include wireless remotes for ease of use, smartphone options for modern control, and keypad access for secure entry.
Wireless Solutions
Our wireless remote control systems work with most gate openers. They use radio signals to open or close your gates from a distance.
You get a simple handheld device that fits in your pocket or car. These remotes typically operate up to 100 feet away, giving you quick access without leaving your vehicle.
We offer remotes with multiple buttons, which can control several gates or functions. Battery life is long, and replacement is easy.
Smartphone Integration
We also install systems that connect to your smartphone. These let you open or close gates using an app, no matter where you are.
The smartphone app shows gate status and lets you monitor access. You can give temporary access codes or alerts to family and friends.
Our smartphone systems use secure Wi-Fi or cellular connections and work with both iPhone and Android devices. This option adds convenience and remote management.
Keypad and Access Code Systems
Keypad systems let you open gates by entering a code. This option works well for places where many people need access.
We program unique codes for each user to increase security. The keypad is weatherproof and has backlit keys for night use.
This system helps track who enters and when, useful for work sites or shared properties. Codes can be changed or deleted easily through our control panel.
Customization and Personalization Options
We focus on tailoring remote control systems to fit each property’s unique needs. Our options cover design matching, access control, and advanced security features that improve convenience and safety.
Matching System Design With Existing Fences and Gates
We ensure the remote control system blends seamlessly with your current fences and gates. This means selecting hardware and finishes that match the style and color of your iron work.
Our team measures and inspects your existing setup to choose controllers and keypads that do not look out of place. You can pick from metal finishes like black, bronze, or silver to maintain a uniform appearance. We also offer options for mounting locations and styles to keep the remote controls unobtrusive. This helps keep your property’s look clean and consistent.
Configurable Access Levels
Our systems allow you to assign different kinds of access for various users. You can set times, days, and permissions based on who needs entry. For example, family members can have 24/7 access, while contractors or delivery drivers may receive only temporary or daytime access. This limits who can enter and when.
We provide easy-to-use control panels and apps to change access remotely. This flexibility is valuable for managing busy or changing schedules.
Enhanced Security Features
We include security options that protect your property beyond basic access control. Features like two-factor authentication and encrypted signals help prevent unauthorized entry.
Some systems offer real-time alerts if someone tries to tamper with the gate or access controls. We can also install cameras that work with the remote system for added monitoring. With these security options, we help keep your property safe without compromising convenience.
What Is a Remote Control System?
A remote control system allows us to operate gates and fences from a distance. Instead of opening or closing them by hand, we can use a remote device to do it quickly and safely.
These systems usually include a transmitter (a remote control) and a receiver installed on the gate. When we press a button on the remote, it sends a signal to the receiver to open or close the gate.
There are different types of remote controls. Some use radio frequency, while others use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Each type offers a different range and level of convenience.
Key features of a remote control system:
- Easy access: Open gates without leaving your vehicle.
- Improved security: Control who enters your property.
- Convenience: Operate gates from inside your home or car.
We install these systems to make entry smoother and safer for our clients. Our setups are designed to work reliably with the gates and fences we customize.
