gate code

Digits for access

A gate code is a numeric or alphanumeric sequence entered on a keypad to open a secured gate, typically at apartment complexes, gated communities, or parking garages.

Residents memorize their gate code; visitors receive temporary ones.

Text me the gate code when I'm close.

The term sometimes extends to any access code for restricted entry.
