Gate Sentry’s newest software, Sentry Solo, is a hardware-free access control platform designed for properties with unmanned, self-service access points, including gates, amenities, parking garages, building entrances, and more. It is ideal for multifamily buildings, self-storage facilities, and gated communities, and eliminates the need for traditional callboxes, keypads, and kiosks, offering a fully mobile, cloud-managed approach to access control.

Registered property users access Sentry Solo through a mobile app or web portal, where they can open gates and doors using VirtualKey, removing the need for fobs or access cards. Users can also manage visitor access remotely and receive real-time notifications of every entry. When a visitor is added, the system automatically generates a pass with a unique access code, valid only for the duration set by the user, which is delivered instantly by text or email. Passes can be saved to the visitors' Apple Wallet or Google Wallet for easy, one-tap use on arrival.

For visitors, no app download is required. At the access point, the SentrySign displays a QR code that, when scanned, launches the VirtualKeypad in the visitor’s mobile browser. The visitor enters their assigned code to gain entry. All access events are logged in real time, ensuring accurate records and immediate arrival notifications.

For administrators, property managers, and security teams, Sentry Solo removes the headaches of hardware installations, electrical work, and ongoing maintenance. Its centralized, cloud-based portal puts all controls in one place, enabling admins to grant or revoke access instantly, issue codes for staff or vendors, monitor live activity, and generate detailed entry reports in seconds. With fewer service calls, reduced downtime, and no physical hardware to maintain, teams can focus on managing the property rather than managing equipment.
