If you’ve ever handed out remote controls to staff or tenants and later worried about who still had one — or worse, what happens if they lose it — you’re not alone.
A regular garage or gate remote doesn’t tell you who’s using it. It just opens the door. That’s fine for a simple roller door at home. But in a commercial or managed building, it’s a security blind spot.
That’s where the iKey Transmitter changes things.
It looks like a typical remote, but behind the scenes, it’s working like a secure access card. When you press the button, it sends a unique encrypted ID to your access control system. That means every time someone opens a door or activates a gate, the system knows exactly who it was.
No guessing. No generic remotes. And most importantly — no risk if it’s lost. You can remove a lost iKey from the system just like you would cancel a lost swipe card or fob. The rest of your users? Still fully operational.
We usually recommend iKey when there’s a need for secure wireless access — especially where cabling isn’t practical, or swipe readers aren’t the right fit. Think roller shutters, warehouse doors, boom gates, or secured side entrances.
You still get full audit trails and control, but with the convenience of a button press. It’s simple, clean, and smart — exactly how modern access should be.
If your current remotes don’t offer this level of control, it might be time to upgrade.
