Telephone Entry System

Tele Entry is a short for telephone entry. Tele entry system is part of access control system which uses a dedicated phone line and allows a resident in a gated community to open the gate using a a personal code, or allowing opening the gates remotely for visitors at the gate, by using a land line phone or a cell phone.

The Telephone entry system includes a telephone system (inside the Tele-Entry case), connected to a landline. A visitor can select a resident from the Tele Entry display screen and initiate a telephone call to the selected resident. The selected resident may answer the phone, press a digit (typically 9) and cause the gate to open.
