Gate Entry: Best Practices

Why do we have gates?

• Gates are there to limit traffic through our community
• Gates are there to keep non-residents out.
• Gates define Deep Harbour as private property

We need to get smarter. The general access code should not be given to non-residents. 

Start using the call box for visitors.   

Here's how it works, 

1. Look up your name in the directory, 
2. Note the "speed number" next to your name. write it down.
3. Now enter that number in the keypad. Your phone should ring.
4. When you receive the call, greet the visitor, then press 9.
5. If all is in place the gate will open.

• If your name is not in the box, call Sentry so that they can enter the information. 410-221-0398
• Yes, the phone number can be a cell phone or a landline.
• Yes, with a cell phone, you can be anywhere and open the gate.

In the future, it is the DHMA's objective to eliminate the general access code. 

We currently have multiple vehicles who use our property for a short-cut. Some enter to use our trash dumpsters. some have been known to park their cars for carpooling.
