The daily problem at most estate gates isn't residents. It's visitors, deliveries, contractors and domestic workers, handled with a paper book and a phone call.

Qyvea supplies, installs and configures a visitor management system as part of its resident & visitor access management.

How digital visitor management works

Resident pre-registers or receives a requestResident approvesVisitor gets a temporary QR / PINGuard verifies at the gateEntry recordedExit recorded

Approval moves from the guard to the resident, who knows the visitor. The guard's job becomes verification, not judgement, and every visit leaves a record.

Common Questions

Do visitors need to install an app?

Not usually. A visitor typically receives a QR code or PIN by message that the guard scans or checks at the gate.

Can residents approve visitors while away?

Yes. Approval can come from the resident's phone, wherever they are.

Does it work with ANPR?

Yes. Visitor vehicle plates can be registered with the pass so the barrier opens within the approved window.
