Ghost Controls Premium Wireless Keypad for Gate Opener - Weatherproof

In this review the Ghost Controls Premium Wireless Keypad (Model AXWK) is assessed for homeowners and property managers who need a reliable keyless entry for a Ghost Controls gate opener. The bottom line: it is a focused replacement keypad that pairs with Ghost Controls openers and adds useful modes like Party Mode and Vacation Mode, plus a removable weatherproof cover that extends durability. The keypad is best for users who want convenient, code-based access without a remote and who already own a compatible Ghost Controls system.

Key Features

• Brand-compatible design: Built specifically as a replacement for Ghost Controls gate openers so programming and pairing match expected system behavior.
• Weatherproof cover: The removable cover shields the buttons from dust and weather to keep the keypad functioning in outdoor installations.
• Multiple access modes: Party Mode, Vacation Mode and 1 Key feature let the owner control temporary and keyed access with flexible settings.
• Large code capacity: Stores up to 40 codes to accommodate family members, staff, or contractors without sharing remotes or physical keys.
• Backlit buttons and range: Backlit keys help use at night and the keypad can be installed up to about 60ft away from the gate for convenient placement.
• High quality materials: A durable housing and keypad construction aim to withstand outdoor conditions and improve service life.

Who It's For

The keypad is aimed at homeowners and small property managers who already use a Ghost Controls gate opener and want a secure, code-based alternative to remotes. It fits installations where users prefer temporary codes for guests or workers and need the convenience of one-touch open and close functions.

It is not for owners of non-Ghost Controls openers; compatibility is limited to Ghost Controls models only. Buyers who need a keypad with built-in power like included batteries or multi-brand compatibility should look elsewhere.
