Remote access gate opener

[Quattromike]

Anyone got a good solution for remote access. I've a gate that is used quite a bit by various folk all related pretty much to my work. I have to leave it open if noone there for people coming or going and sometimes it gets left open. The problem is on occasions when it's left open and nobody there we get unwanted visitors. It appears if they drive in drive round and drive out again the cameras don't alarm, it's only when they drive in and get out the camera alarms with human recognition.
Anyway id like to fit a gate opener to operate the gate but would also like to be able to control it remotely. So I can check the camera and if it's the correct visitor open the gate from where I am rather than having to either leave it open or go get someone with the key to open.
Ideally an app for this would be my preference. It might be a key pad would have to be a compromise on this. As long as the gate closed again after entry.

Had exactly that scenario a job I used to look after. I think this is the product that was on the outside gate post;

4G Solo+ - Commtel Ltd

Commtel Solo+ | Single button 4G intercom Our best-selling Solo+ may appear simple, but this single-button intercom with a built-in keypad is packed with smart, practical benefits.

I also set up a camera like you said that looked at the gate that you could view remotely and then you could just text the gate to open it and close it etc or hold it really handy.
There was an app that you could add people's numbers so they could be allowed to open it and things like that

That looks quite good, I'll have to look into it

My mate used to have an opner that was connected to his phone.

He could open it remotely anywhere in the world. He added my phone number and all I had to do was ring the gate and it'd open up for me.

No idea of the manufacturer.

@Mogman has a setup where he can see what you had for breakfast, what colour socks you are wearing, and how much air is in your tyres before deciding whether to let you in or not from the sun-deck of his yacht in the Caribbean…
Might be worth asking what system he has?

He likely found it in the scrap yard... where he found his yacht
