RFID Tag Installation Service

Expert Solutions for Secure Access Control

Our RFID-based automatic gate control systems use cutting-edge Radio Frequency Identification technology to provide seamless, secure access to your property without requiring physical contact. This technology recognizes authorized tags instantly, opening your gate automatically when you approach.


We understand that security and convenience are equally important for property owners. That's why our team of experienced technicians specializes in customized RFID solutions for both residential and commercial properties. Our installation process is straightforward but thorough—we assess your specific needs, recommend the appropriate RFID system, and handle everything from mounting readers to programming tags and testing the entire system.


When you choose Speedy Automatic Gate Repair for your RFID tag installation, you're getting more than just a new access system. You're investing in our ongoing support and maintenance services that ensure your gate functions reliably for years to come. We pride ourselves on providing same-day services whenever possible, with technicians who arrive on time and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.

RFID Basics and Functionality

RFID systems consist of three main components: tags, readers, and a processing system. The tags contain a microchip and antenna that store and transmit data. When these tags enter a reader's electromagnetic field, they become activated and communicate their stored information.


Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID doesn't require direct visual contact to work. This technology uses radio frequency waves to transfer data wirelessly, making it ideal for gate access systems where convenience is key.


The reading range varies significantly based on the type of system used. Some tags can be read from just a few inches away, while more sophisticated systems can detect tags from several feet or even yards away.

Differences Between Passive and Active RFID Systems

Passive RFID systems operate without an internal power source. These tags draw power from the electromagnetic field generated by the reader. They're typically smaller, less expensive, and have virtually unlimited operational life.


Active RFID systems contain their own power source, usually a battery. This allows them to broadcast signals over greater distances and work in more challenging environments. They're ideal for applications requiring long-range tracking or real-time location monitoring.


When we install RFID systems for your gates, we carefully evaluate your specific needs. Passive systems are perfect for standard residential gates where vehicles approach closely. Active systems might be recommended for larger properties or commercial facilities requiring detection from greater distances.

RFID Tag Installation Process

We follow a methodical approach that covers thorough site evaluation, precise programming, strategic hardware placement, and testing.

  • 1. Site Assessment and Planning

    We begin every RFID tag installation with a detailed site assessment. Our technicians visit your property to evaluate the gate structure, surrounding environment, and traffic patterns. This helps us determine optimal reader placement and tag requirements.

  • 2. Tag Programming and Encoding

    Once we've completed our site assessment, we move to programming your RFID tags with unique identification codes. Each tag receives a secure digital signature that cannot be duplicated or compromised.

  • 3. Hardware Setup and Tag Placement

    The installation cost of a typical RFID system ranges between $400-$500, which includes all necessary hardware components. Our technicians mount RFID readers at strategic locations near your gate entry points.

  • 4. System Integration and Testing

    The final phase involves integrating your RFID system with your existing gate automation. We connect all components to ensure seamless communication between tags, readers, and gate operators.

  • 5. RFID Reader and Antenna Installation

    Our technicians strategically mount RFID readers to maximize coverage area while minimizing interference. We typically install readers at entry/exit points, positioning them at the midpoint of overhead entrance gates for optimal alignment with vehicle tags.

  • 6. Post-Launch Assessment and Follow-Ups

    Once your RFID system goes live, our work doesn't end there. We conduct comprehensive testing to verify all components are functioning according to specifications. This includes read accuracy checks, speed tests, and security protocol validation. Our 30-day monitoring period helps identify any performance issues that might emerge during real-world use.

Work with us

We believe effective communication forms the foundation of successful RFID implementations. Our project managers serve as your dedicated point of contact throughout the entire process. Regular coordination meetings are scheduled at key project phases to keep all stakeholders informed and aligned. These typically include:


  • Initial planning meeting with facility management
  • Technical consultation with IT personnel
  • Training sessions with security and operations staff
  • Final walkthrough with management team


Our installation teams work closely with your facility managers to minimize disruption to daily operations. We can schedule work during off-hours or weekends if needed to accommodate high-traffic periods. Documentation is shared through our secure client portal, giving stakeholders instant access to installation specs, progress reports, and training materials as the project unfolds.

    Our technicians are trained to work with various property layouts and security requirements. No property is too large or small for our RFID installation capabilities. emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.

  • How much does RFID tag installation typically cost for automatic gate systems?

    Our RFID tag installation starts at $850 for basic residential systems. This includes the RFID reader, standard tags, and professional installation on your existing gate.


    Commercial installations typically range from $1,200 to $3,500 depending on complexity. Factors affecting price include gate type, number of required tags, and additional security features.


    We offer customized packages for multi-gate properties or specialized access control needs. Volume discounts are available for large tag orders or multi-unit installations.

  • What are the benefits of installing an RFID tag anti-theft tracking system?

    RFID systems provide contactless entry without fumbling for keys or remotes. Your gate opens automatically when an authorized vehicle approaches, enhancing convenience while maintaining security.


    Tracking features let you monitor who enters and exits your property at all times. This creates a digital log of all access events, giving you complete visibility over property access.


    Our RFID solutions integrate with existing security systems for comprehensive protection. You can revoke access instantly for lost tags, ensuring unwanted visitors can't gain entry.

  • How long does the RFID tag installation process take when serviced by Speedy Automatic Gate Repair?

    Most residential installations are completed in 3-5 hours. This includes mounting the reader, connecting to your gate controller, and programming initial tags.


    Commercial installations typically take 6-8 hours depending on complexity. Multi-gate systems or those requiring additional infrastructure may require a full day.


    We schedule installations at your convenience to minimize disruption. Our technicians work efficiently while ensuring all components function properly before completion.

  • What maintenance is required after installing an RFID tag tracking system on my property's gate?

    RFID systems require minimal maintenance once properly installed. We recommend a basic inspection every 12 months to check connections and update firmware if needed.


    Tags generally last 3-5 years under normal use conditions. Environmental factors like extreme temperatures or moisture exposure may shorten this lifespan in some situations.


    Our service plans include regular maintenance checks and priority support. We remotely monitor system performance and can often diagnose issues before they affect operation.
