At Gateway Greens, we place a premium on ensuring our community remains a secure and peaceful place to call home. Our comprehensive systems have even drawn the attention of other communities – they have visited us to observe and learn from our best practices:

1. Dedicated Gatehouse Staff and Community Patrols: Our gatehouses are expertly staffed by a contracted security service. This busy team processes between 800 and 1,300 guests and vendors each day during season. The Main Gate is manned 24/7, and the Westlinks Gate is staffed for most daytime hours. Beyond the gatehouses, this team also operates a dedicated security vehicle, to patrol our community daily from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., ensuring every street in Gateway Greens is covered at least twice. While patrolling, they also identify and report street light outages or issues to ensure proper nighttime visibility throughout our community. In addition to physical staff, we also have 36 strategically placed security cameras to further bolster our efforts.

2. Best-In-Class Access Control System: Owners and tenants can register for a vehicle transponder to allow easy resident entrance. We also employ cutting-edge access control systems including security surveillance software and guest/vendor access systems. Our ISN software efficiently manages guests and vendors, allowing us to record license plate and driver’s license numbers and vehicle make/model information. Just register your guests and vendors on the ISN app or provide them with the daily access code. You can also use ISN to send a Flag Message to the gatehouse, another method for enhanced communication and security.

3. Dedicated Access Control Team: Our Access Control Team is dedicated to overseeing all aspects of our community’s security: issuing community credentials (transponders and passes), registering golf carts and low speed vehicles, and maintaining our gate operating systems (security cameras, video recorders, kiosk call boxes, and guest pass scanners). This team also manages excessive vehicle speeding with two “Traffic Hawk” monitoring units. Since deploying these devices, we have seen nearly a 50% reduction in speeding violations, contributing to a safer environment for everyone. To contact Access Control, please email [email protected] or call (239) 406-1692.
