Apartment Complex Gate Services — Denver
An apartment gate that’s broken at 10 p.m. is a security incident, not a maintenance item. Tenants can’t get home, prospects see a bad first impression, and an open gate is an insurance headache. We run 24/7 dispatch specifically for multi-tenant properties, with under-1-hour emergency response across Denver metro for contract accounts. Keypad re-flashes, tenant code turnover, sensor realignment, operator repair, power-outage failsafe — all on one service truck, all billed to the management company.

Tenant Code and Access Management
Apartment keypads turn over fast — every lease change means a code change, and every few years the keypad needs a full re-flash. We handle:
- Single tenant code additions/deletions via on-site programming.
- Bulk code resets after security incidents — entire keypad re-flashed.
- Master code changes with documentation for the property management team.
- Upgrade to cloud-based access control — commercial access control — so tenant management runs through an app instead of a physical keypad visit.
- Integration with property-management software (RealPage, Yardi, etc.) where the gate system supports it.
Emergency Service for Multi-Tenant Properties
Our 24/7 emergency line and the commercial emergency service are both staffed by dispatchers who know apartment complex priorities — gate stuck open = security. Gate stuck closed = tenants can’t get home = angry calls to the manager. We treat both as high priority and show up with the parts needed to fix on first visit.
Preventive Maintenance Contracts
Emergency calls cost 3-5x what planned maintenance does. Our PM program covers quarterly gate inspection, track cleaning, chain tension, photo-eye alignment, keypad battery swap, and operator lubrication. Most contract properties see 60-70% fewer emergency calls year-over-year after the first year of PM.
Billing and Contracts
Net-30 billing standard. Single PO per property or master PO for multi-property portfolios. Itemized invoices formatted for your accounting system. See the main Property Management & HOA hub for full contract options.
