The Problem

What happens when there is nobody left to call?

The old access system may still work. But the person who built it is gone. Parts cannot be sourced. There is no documentation, and no support path.

A gate that fails on a Friday night is not a software problem. It is a marina problem, and you need a real person to answer the phone.

Why HarborKey

The access system people stop worrying about.

01

Built by a tech company

Real engineering, made for marina people. Not a generic access box bolted onto the dock.

02

Real local support

A local company answers the phone. One number to call, and the same team every time.

03

Drop-in replacement

Little to no downtime. We swap the head units and your marina keeps running.

04

Keeps your credentials

Works with the key fobs and cards your tenants already carry. Nobody re-issues a thing.

05

Continuous improvement

The system gets better over time. Updates roll out, and you are never left behind.

No plans. No tiers.
Just your marina.

How it works

Simple for tenants.
Controlled by the marina.

Tenants tap, type, or open the app, and the gate opens. Staff manage many tenants from one place, with near-real-time updates across the marina.

Drop-in · Built for the salt

We swap the head units. Your readers keep working.

The card readers your tenants already use stay in place, so the upgrade is a quiet one. And every unit is marine-grade and weatherproof, because it has to live in the salt, the fog, and the wind off the bay.

Built for the salt.

Everything WebPerception

One stop. One number to call.

Access is the heart of it. When you need more, the same local team handles the rest of the marina.
