Lacking range
Product works if you’re within range which seems to be 50 yards, you might have to hard wire to make all functions work.

I just purchase this system. I returned it the next day.
The intercom doesn’t fuction properly using it wireless.
We have a 300′ foot drive (straight driveway, no curves)the unit did not operate as advertise. “Crystal clear up to 500 feet”
We experimented with shorter distances. the unit was audible within 30-40′ range. The gate never opened, with the command to open botton.
May work with wire, untested.
Wireless Intercom/Keypad
I have been using this system for about a year. I use it to control access to a security gate(man-gate) in front of my home. The gate is located about 50 feet from the intercom unit. The intercom unit plugs into house power. The gate unit works off of a small 12-volt rechargable battery. I use an inexpensive solar cell array I purchased from Harbor Freight to recharge the battery. The alternative is to use the provided charger which requires 110 house power. The system works ok but one issue has made it difficult for visitors and me to use. The chief issue is that the intercom does not release the gate latch. It merely makes it possible for a visitor to press any key on the touchpad to release the lock. So you can’t open the lock for someone. You have to push a botton and then tell the visitor to press any key over the intercom. Also the intercom does not enable the system unless someone calls on the intercom. So again you can’t use the intercom to egress. Consequently you need a key or another button to open the gate from the inside. You will need some basic mechanical and electrical (handyman)skills to install the system. If this is not you than pay someone to do it for you. Also the volume at the keypad is good but the volume at the intercom is low making it difficult to hear your visitor.
