Gates, fencing & controlled access
Pedestrian, vehicle, and perimeter gates engineered for secure, controlled entry.
Perimeter security combines physical boundaries with controlled pedestrian and vehicle entry, cameras, detection, and communication. Three Factor Security coordinates gates, operators, access control, intercoms, and supported vehicle-identification systems around the property’s infrastructure and operating requirements.
Designed around the property
Complete scope. Clear handoff. Long-term support.
We design and install physical perimeter security around the way people, vehicles, visitors, and deliveries move through the property. Pedestrian gates, driveway and vehicle gates, swing, slide, rolling, and cantilever gates, fencing, posts, footings, locking hardware, gate operators, safety devices, egress, and anti-climb protection are coordinated as one dependable system. Where appropriate, LPR cameras can recognize approved license plates and trigger authorized vehicle-gate entry; access-control readers, fobs, mobile credentials, and keypads can manage gates and doors; and video or audio intercoms can help verify visitors before a gate or door is remotely released.
Gates, fencing & controlled entry
Gate operators integrated with perimeter security.
We coordinate pedestrian and vehicle gates, fencing, operators, safety hardware, and site-specific fabrication with LPR cameras, access control, and intercom release where the operating plan calls for them.

Common questions
Clear answers before the project begins.
These answers explain practical planning considerations for this service. Final recommendations are based on a professional assessment, the existing infrastructure, the property’s operating needs, and the systems selected.
How should gates, cameras, and intercoms work together?
Plan vehicle and pedestrian entry separately, then coordinate the relevant view, visitor call, credential, opening status, and authorized release. Hardware, network, power, and platform compatibility must support the intended workflow. A clear view of a gate is only one part of controlled entry.
Can license-plate recognition control a vehicle gate?
Supported LPR and access platforms can participate in a vehicle-entry workflow when the camera position, recognition conditions, permissions, and gate interface are designed together. Plate capture should be evaluated separately from a general lot overview, with clear rules for data retention and authorized use.
What matters when an entrance is far from the main building?
Review pathway length, available power, communications, equipment exposure, mounting, and maintenance access. Network or wireless options depend on actual site conditions. Backup arrangements should cover the devices and connections needed for the intended entry and recording functions.
What should an existing gate upgrade include?
Inspect the operator, opening, controls, entry devices, wiring, power, and supported safety features before adding new credentials or remote release. Coordinate required specialist work and approvals, then test the agreed operating behavior. Retaining a gate does not mean every existing component is suitable for integration.

Doors, gates & access coordination
The opening, hardware, power, network, credential, and release method must work as one.
Access projects often cross several responsibilities. We define the security-system scope and coordinate supported readers, intercoms, locks, operators, request-to-exit devices, contacts, fire/life-safety interfaces, network, power, schedules, and user administration with the responsible property team and trades.
