GateKeeper access control

Let members in after hours. Keep everyone else out.

GateKeeper mounts beside your club's door. Members scan a barcode or tap a key fob, GateKeeper checks their credentials with a secure server, and the door unlocks only for people you've approved.

How it works

One second from scan to open door

GateKeeper has two parts: an exterior reader mounted next to the door, and an interior control unit that talks to the server and drives the door lock.

  1. Scan at the door

    The member scans the barcode on their membership card or phone, or taps their key fob on the exterior reader.

  2. Verify over the Internet

    The interior control unit sends the credential over a secure connection to the server, which checks that it's valid for this door at this time.

  3. Unlock or deny

    If the credential checks out, a relay releases the door lock. If not, the door stays locked. Either way, the attempt is logged.

Included with every GateKeeper

Control who gets in, which doors, and when

Multiple doors

Mount a GateKeeper on the front entrance, the side door, the locker rooms, or any other door you want to control, all managed together.

Time-restricted access

Set the hours each door can be opened. Keep the pool area closed overnight while the main floor stays available around the clock.

Complete entry log

Every scan is recorded with who it was, which door, and the exact time of entry, so you always know who was in the building.

Text and email alerts

Optionally send a text or email when someone enters, for every entry or only for the doors and members you choose.

GateKeeper was designed with health club owners in mind: give members the after-hours access they ask for while you stay in control of the building.

Approve each member

Only members with valid credentials get through, and you can revoke access at any time.
