On the Atlantic Seaboard, the challenge is usually people you don’t know. Apartment blocks in Sea Point and Green Point have residents, tenants, cleaners and couriers all needing different access. Holiday lets in Camps Bay and Clifton host new guests every few days. Handing out keys and remotes quickly gets out of hand, and salt air wears out cheap outdoor readers.
We set up access you can control. See our main access control service.
We look at each entrance, who uses it and when, then choose weather-rated readers and a system that lets you add and remove users quickly, including temporary guest codes.
Tag, PIN or face readers on pedestrian gates, lobbies and parking, with user management for trustees.
Keypad codes that change between guests, so there are no keys or remotes to collect.
Corroded readers, faulty locks and old systems repaired or replaced.

Keypad codes that expire after checkout solve it. Contact us to set it up.

Salt, user management and old systems cause most call-outs.
Salt corrodes cheap readers. We replace them with weather-rated units and seal the cabling.
We audit the user list, remove old tags and set up simple management. See our tags guide.
Misalignment or a weak power supply. We realign and fix power.
What trustees and hosts ask us most.
A keypad on the gate or front door lets you issue a code for each booking and delete it after checkout. Some systems can also set codes to work only during the stay. It removes the need to meet guests or collect remotes, and lost keys stop being a security problem.
Yes. Tags are cheaper to replace, easy to cancel when lost and can be limited to certain doors or times. We install readers at pedestrian gates, lobbies and parking, enrol residents and train trustees or the managing agent to handle new owners and tenants.
Yes. Residents use tags or codes, while visitors use the intercom to call a unit, which then releases the door or gate. Linking the two gives you one entry point that handles both, and CCTV can record who came through.
Weather-rated readers installed with sealed cabling last well, even close to the beach in Mouille Point or Clifton. Cheap indoor-grade units mounted outside fail quickly. We choose the right grade for each position, add a hood where there’s direct spray and recommend a yearly check on exposed readers.
