Security Where US-67 Meets I-20
Duncanville is a city of about 40,000 in southwest Dallas County, built around the junction of US-67 and I-20. Highway 67 carries close to 100,000 vehicles a day past retail centers, restaurants, auto businesses and service companies, while the rest of the city is made up of established neighborhoods, churches, schools and apartment communities.
A1 Security Gate & Intercom installs security cameras, access control, gates and call boxes for Duncanville properties, designed for each site and managed from one app.
Retail and Highway Businesses
Businesses on a corridor this busy see a lot of traffic, and a lot of risk after hours. We place cameras to identify people at entrances and registers, cover parking lots and drive lanes, and watch back doors, dumpsters and loading areas where many incidents start. For auto dealers, repair shops and equipment yards, we add long-range lot cameras and gate coverage, tested at night.
Video records on a UniFi Protect console on site with phone viewing for owners. Staff-only doors can move to card or phone access control with schedules and a log of every entry. Most complete commercial doors run about $3,000–$3,500 including professional-grade hardware, installation and programming.

Churches and Schools
Churches and private schools need to welcome people while controlling who can get into offices, classrooms, children’s areas and the sanctuary outside service times. We install cameras on entrances, parking lots and hallways, and access control that unlocks doors on a schedule for services and events and locks them automatically afterward. Staff and volunteers get credentials limited to the doors and hours they need, and every entry is logged.
Apartment Gates and Call Boxes
Many Duncanville apartment communities have gate systems that are years old. When the telephone-entry call box stops working because the phone line was cut, we can often keep the existing gate operator and wiring and replace only the entry unit with a cellular or app-based call box. We also repair gate operators, loops and photo eyes, and add cameras at entry and exit lanes.
Solutions for property managers
Homes
For Duncanville homeowners, we install video doorbells, outdoor cameras covering driveways, yards and back patios, and driveway gate operators, with local recording and phone viewing.
Permits and Fire Access
Duncanville sets its own requirements for alarms, gates and access-controlled exits. Every controlled door must allow free egress, and gates on fire lanes need emergency access. We confirm current requirements for your address before installation. See our permits guide.

Auto Dealers, Repair Shops and Equipment Yards
US-67 has a long run of car lots, body shops, tire stores and equipment rental yards. Their problem is inventory sitting outside overnight. We cover lot entrances and exits, the rows of vehicles or equipment, service bay doors and the key drop, using long-range cameras on poles or building corners and lighting checks at night. Gate operators or barrier arms at the lot entrance can close the property after hours and open for staff by card or remote.
