Security guard app

Security guard app for societies and apartments

Simple gate screens for your guards: scan a pass or sticker, add a walk-in, see who is inside, and follow the duty tasks your committee sets.

Guard app Inside tab with counts of visitors, staff and vehicles inside, and a list of visitors with a one-tap Exit button

Scan a QR code or search by name or plate

Guards point the phone at a pass, a staff card or a vehicle sticker. No code to scan? They type the code or search instead.

  • Scan guest passes, daily passes, staff cards and vehicle stickers
  • Or type the code a visitor reads out
  • Search vehicles by plate, owner or flat, and staff by name or phone
  • A clear answer: let in, or the reason not to

Add walk-in visitors in a few taps

For a visitor with no pass, the guard picks the flat, adds the name, phone and a photo, and asks the resident. The answer shows on the guard’s screen.

  • Find the flat by wing and number
  • Visitor types like guest, delivery, courier or cab
  • No answer? Phone the resident, then decide

Who is inside and the IN/OUT register

The guard app shows who is inside right now and keeps a log of every entry and exit, with the time and the flat.

  • Visitors, staff and vehicles inside, with counts
  • One-tap exit for each visitor
  • Visitors who stay a long time are flagged
  • Filter the log by entries or exits

Duty tasks with alarms

The committee sets daily duty tasks for the guards, each with a start time and a deadline. The guard’s phone rings when a task is due.

  • Written steps, with photos or videos if needed
  • Snooze for a few minutes, or mark it done
  • The committee sees a log of what was done and when

Security checks and SOS alerts

The committee can check that a guard is at the gate. Residents can call the guards in an emergency.

  • “Are you at the gate?” rings the guard’s phone
  • The guard taps to answer; a check left unanswered is marked missed
  • SOS alerts from residents ring on the guard app
  • The guard acknowledges the alert, and the resident is told
How it works

    With a one-time code (OTP), in the language they pick.

  3. The gate runs on the app

    Passes, walk-ins, staff and vehicles, all on one screen.

Questions

Security guard app questions

Anything else? Ask us on WhatsApp.

Which languages does the guard app work in?

English, ગુજરાતી and हिन्दी. Each guard picks their own language in the app.

Which phones does it work on?

Android and iOS. Guards use the same GateChecker app as residents, but they only see the gate screens.

How does a guard sign in?

The committee adds each guard with their phone number. The guard then signs in with a one-time code (OTP) sent to that number.

What can a guard see about residents?

Only what is needed at the gate: a name, a number to call and the flat. Guards never see ID proofs or vehicle papers.
