Gated Communities and Estates
One system for gates, guards and residents.
Sentiv unifies estate and gated-community security on one platform, so gates, guards, residents and vehicles work as a single coordinated system rather than a collection of disconnected tools. Our solution ties together access control, visitor management, number-plate recognition, guard communications, panic and a resident app, giving the control room one live view of everything happening on the estate. When an incident occurs at any point, it is seen and coordinated across the whole community, so response is fast and residents have real visibility and reassurance. Sentiv delivers it as all-inclusive kits with one partner responsible, which suits estates that do not have in-house security technology teams.
The Challenge
On most estates, gates, guards, cameras, access control and resident communication run on separate systems from different suppliers, so nothing is coordinated when it matters. An incident at the gate, on a patrol route or at a home is handled in isolation, response is slow, and residents are left without clear information or reassurance. Committees and managing agents have to juggle multiple contracts and still cannot get a single view of what is happening. They need one coordinated system, simple to run and accountable to one partner.
How Sentiv Helps
Our solution unifies access and visitor management, so entry is controlled and every visitor is recorded, while the SNIPR network adds Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) with face and object recognition to flag vehicles and people of interest. Guards carry push-to-talk communications and body-worn cameras, panic alerting puts residents and staff in instant contact with the control room, and a resident app keeps the community informed. Everything reports into a single live view, so an event at one point is coordinated across the whole estate. Delivered as all-inclusive kits with one accountable partner, it removes the burden of managing multiple security suppliers.

FAQ
Common Questions
“What does Sentiv bring together?”
Sentiv brings together OneAccess for multi-method entry (biometrics, Bluetooth, RFID, PIN and intercom), GateBook for digital, guard-managed visitor processing, SNIPR for ANPR and vehicle recognition, guard communications and panic alerting, and a resident Connect App for visitor PINs, panic and incident reporting, all coordinated from one cloud platform.
“How does it speed up response?”
A single, live view of every gate, guard, resident and vehicle means an incident at any point on the estate is seen and coordinated immediately, rather than waiting for a guard to radio it in separately. The platform is also offline resilient, so access control and patrol logging keep working through load-shedding or a network outage, and every event is still recorded for the record afterwards.
