UniFi Access door and gate entry in Essex
Readers and hubs for doors and for gates, run from the same UniFi app as the cameras when the network is designed that way.
Entry that matches the rest of the system
UniFi Access is the reader, hub and unlock side of the same family as Protect. On a house that can mean a door into a home office or annex. On a gate it can mean a reader at the pier, talking to the same network as the cameras.
We already fit other access control, including Paxton on commercial sites. Access is the UniFi option, chosen when you want doors and cameras in one app. We will not pretend a Paxton reader is a UniFi reader.
Gate wiring, safety edges and the motor stay on the gate automation side of the job. Access decides who is allowed to open. The motor still has to stop and reverse safely.
Charged is affiliated with J&G Systems, the family IT business. J&G Systems has been a UniFi support partner since UniFi came to the UK. Charged itself is not a UniFi partner. The installs we describe come from our own experience and a portfolio of UniFi work: Protect cameras, Access, intercoms including gate intercoms, and the network that joins them up.
Photograph still to come
The picture on this page is a generic UniFi Protect product image from the site. It is not an Access install and not a client job. A real reader or hub photograph will replace it.

Questions we get asked
It can request the opening. The gate motor, safety devices and manual release stay part of the gate system. We survey both together so the reader is not an afterthought on a pier with no cable.
Yes. That is the point of putting them on one UniFi network. You adopt the readers and the cameras in the same system.
Often, if the cable and the lock are suitable. We check that at survey rather than promising it from a photo.
No. The partner wording belongs to our affiliation with J&G Systems, which has been a UniFi support partner since UniFi came to the UK.
