Traditional access systems require extensive installation, including running phone or internet lines to every gate and door. That aging infrastructure adds up to years of maintenance calls, repair invoices, and hardware replacement cycles.
Gatewise uses cellular data and Bluetooth, so no phone line or internet is needed at each access point. The result is access that stays reliable when building internet does not, without the recurring costs legacy hardware creates.
Gatewise was purpose-built for multifamily communities, and the same platform extends to student housing, self-storage, and commercial properties. Every capability is shaped by the community teams and residents who use it daily, so the experience keeps getting better for everyone.
Open gates, doors, and amenities with their phone, and host guests with digital Visitor Keys. No clickers, fobs, or shared codes to keep track of.
Spends less time on fob replacements and call box repairs, with full control over every access point from one portal.
Gatewise was built to simplify access control for multifamily communities. Our product roadmap is informed by the needs of apartment community staff and residents, ensuring the best possible experience for everyone.
“We had so many gate issues at our properties, we knew we had to try Gatewise. And now, after implementing it at 3 properties, we'll never go back to traditional systems.”
“Everyone here loves it because you can use it from anywhere - you don’t have to be on property to let people in. With gate codes, you can pass that along to a bunch of people, and then all these people have access to the community. Gatewise eliminates that.”
Independent research tracking 600+ properties over three years proves that Gatewise smart access control dramatically improves resident satisfaction and strengthens lease renewal rates compared to traditional systems.
“I 100% recommend Gatewise. No more remembering codes for every gate! With one app I can access all my sites! Shelly has been so helpful as well! She is responsive & constantly follows up to ensure customers are satisfied!”
“From a security/safety standpoint, we love it as operators because there’s no keypad with codes that have been in the system for 10 years that nobody has ever changed. It really gives us control of our gate system which we haven’t had in a long time.”
Gatewise is a smart access platform that unifies gates, doors, and amenities under one mobile app and one cloud management portal. Purpose-built for multifamily communities, the same platform extends to student housing, self-storage, and commercial properties. Gatewise is an Allegion company and is trusted across 500,000+ units nationwide.
A smartphone-based access platform like Gatewise replaces the apartment call box entirely. Instead of hardware that requires a dedicated phone line, residents open gates and doors from their phone and host guests with digital Visitor Keys that expire automatically. There is no call box hardware to maintain or phone line to pay for.
No. Gatewise uses cellular data and Bluetooth, so no phone line or internet connection is needed at any access point. Access keeps working even when building internet goes down, and battery backup keeps gates operational through power outages.
Residents use the Gatewise mobile app for one-tap entry, or tap to enter with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet. The same credential works at vehicle gates, pedestrian gates, and amenity doors. Residents can also let guests in remotely or send a Visitor Key by text or email.
Gatewise integrates with Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, and ResMan. Resident access activates and deactivates automatically based on lease dates, so move-ins and move-outs never require manual credential updates.
Independent research using Grace Hill / Kingsley Index survey data across 649 properties from 2023 to 2025 found a 20 percent increase in resident satisfaction with controlled access at Gatewise communities, compared with 7 percent at non-Gatewise communities in the same markets, and a 16.5 percent stronger link between access control and resident retention intent.
Gatewise serves multifamily communities of every type (garden-style, mid-rise, high-rise), plus student housing, self-storage facilities, mixed-use, and commercial properties, all on one platform with one management experience.
Gatewise offers a simple and modern gate entry system that provides residents with a mobile app and managers with a cloud-based management portal.
