ClavePoint automates HOA gate access with license plate recognition. Core gate decisions run locally. External access happens only through configured services, operator policy, or legal process.
New resident moves in — you issue a remote. Resident moves out — you hope they return it. Remote lost — you issue another. Code shared — you rotate the whole community.
ClavePoint reduces day-to-day remote, code, and fob management by using plates as the primary credential. When a resident moves out, you remove their plate from the allowed list.
Some cloud plate reader offerings include data-sharing or lookup features that boards should review before adopting. Residents expect clear answers about who can access gate event data.
ClavePoint stores gate event data locally by default and does not provide a national law-enforcement lookup tool. Customer-controlled access, support, integrations, and legal obligations are governed by applicable terms.
Subscription-based LPR can leave your HOA with a recurring software line item that has to be reviewed during budget planning.
ClavePoint packages are scoped to your gate, lane count, camera needs, and optional services before payment.
ClavePoint is quoted as an on-site appliance for core local gate operation, not a required recurring software subscription. Compare that to cloud subscription services, which may require annual budget review or multi-year terms.
Mount the appliance, connect to your network, wire a relay to your gate controller's dry contact input, and aim the IP camera at the entry lane. A qualified low-voltage, gate, or security contractor is recommended.
Add resident plates via the web dashboard, import a CSV when scoped, and create guest, vendor, staff, or contractor records with access schedules where needed. Large approved-plate lists do not carry per-plate software fees; practical capacity is confirmed during review.
Recognized approved plates open the gate automatically when their schedule is active. Unknown or out-of-schedule plates are logged with timestamp and plate read. Entry and denial history is searchable from the dashboard.
One entry removed in the dashboard. Access revoked immediately. No remote to retrieve. No code to rotate. No fob to deactivate.
HOA gate access is rarely just residents. ClavePoint lets operators separate routine resident access from temporary guests, recurring vendors, one-day contractors, and staff records.
That gives the board a clearer way to reduce manual gate-code churn, review access disputes, and keep local retention settings aligned with the community's policy.
Always-active access for approved resident vehicles until the record is changed or removed.
Temporary passes can expire automatically, such as a weekend visit ending Sunday night.
Weekly windows can limit access to business hours instead of all day, every day.
One-day or date-window access can be used for repairs, move-ins, and project work.
When a ClavePoint appliance reads a plate, gate decisions and event records are handled on the local appliance by design. Plate data is not sent to a national lookup network or shared with law enforcement by ClavePoint.
Customer-enabled remote support, updates, alerts, or integrations should be governed by the applicable support and privacy terms. The core access-control workflow does not depend on an internet lookup to open the gate.
ClavePoint packages are scoped to your gate, lane count, camera needs, and installation responsibilities. Core data is stored locally by default, with optional services quoted separately.
