Cellular Gate Opener Pricing & Cost

Nimbio service for a single-family home is $30 a month and covers one access point. Each additional access point is $25 a month and is its own $299 controller. Digital keys are unlimited and included, with no per-key charge. Pay for a full year up front and one month is free.

Single-family pricing is for one house with its own gate. A gate shared by more than one home, such as an HOA, a gated community or an apartment property, does not count as single-family, even when every home behind it is a detached house. Talk to sales for a quote on a shared gate or a commercial property.

No. Residential pricing is per home, not per person. Every household member can have their own digital key at no extra charge, and you can issue Recurring Keys, Doorbell Keys, and delivery access codes without affecting your subscription rate.

The subscription covers cellular connectivity (multi-carrier LTE data is included — no separate SIM plan), the full Nimbio platform and all its features, automatic over-the-air firmware updates, Community Manager portal access, end-user app support, and ongoing maintenance. Hardware is also covered by Nimbio’s lifetime warranty — if your controller ever stops working for any reason, Nimbio provides a prompt replacement for the life of your subscription. There is no separate charge for any of these. Wondering how that compares to usage-based billing elsewhere in proptech? See our breakdown of flat-rate vs. usage-based access control pricing.

Yes. When you prepay annually, you get one month of cellular service free — effectively a month’s subscription at no cost. Contact us when requesting a quote and we’ll include the annual option.

Yes. Every Nimbio controller is covered by a lifetime hardware warranty. If your controller ever stops working for any reason, Nimbio provides a prompt replacement at no additional cost — for the life of your subscription. This applies to all customers regardless of billing model.

The $299 hardware cost is a one-time purchase. Beyond that, the low monthly subscription covers everything ongoing — no activation fees, no setup charges, no separate cellular plan. Contact us for a full quote.

Yes. Each additional access point is its own Nimbio controller ($299), added as a line item on your single existing subscription — not a separate subscription. For a single-family home, that line item is $25 a month, which covers the new controller’s own cellular connectivity and maintenance; for a shared gate or a commercial property it is part of your quote. The Virtual Keychain feature brings all of them together in one app, so users see every door they’re authorized for in a single interface.

Cellular data is fully included in your Nimbio subscription. The pre-installed multi-carrier SIM automatically connects to the strongest of AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile — you never manage a SIM plan, activate a carrier, or pay a separate data bill. The SIM works internationally too — international customers should contact us to confirm which networks are supported in their region.

The majority of Nimbio installations work with existing gate operators and electronic locks — no rip-and-replace. The controller wires in parallel to your existing dry-contact input, so your legacy clickers and keypads keep working alongside the app. See how it works or ask us about your specific gate.
