“Smart” access solution for a gate

[luke duke 6,414]

We have a community pool in my neighborhood. Membership is optional, as a result there are a bunch of freeloaders. No one wants to dedicate the money to have someone police the gate.

 

Is anyone aware of a smart lock that can be installed on a wrought iron gate with the following features:

- can be accessed with either a cellphone app or a fob

- has the ability to restrict remote “buzzing-in”

- an integrated camera would be nice, but not a requirement

- we can set certain hours when the gate can be opened

- we have power and Wi-Fi at the gate

What about something with an electronic access card/badge reader?  That would prevent the remote buzzing in and would make it pretty easy to block access for those that give their card out more easily.  Unless you can geo-fence the cellphone app down to very close proximity, you are going to have a real issue with restricting access.

Not that I have any suggestions as to actual hardware, just issues that I thought of in regards to phone apps

So what you’re saying is…membership isn’t optional.
