There are no secure entries.

You must have a pass to get through this gate - no button. As a matter of fact not all gate passes work on this gate. If your's does not work The Villages will reprogram it for you. This was announced by The Villages when the gate was installed. There has also been an alleged problem of stolen gate passes being sold to Stonecreast residents.If a gate pass is stolen and reported to The Villages they deactivate all passes with that ID and reissue new ones. This makes the "hot" illegally purchased pass not to work. Thus if at the gate and someone says my gate pass won't work or I forgot my pass I ask to see their Villages ID before I open it for them. Furthermore that gate is very quick to close and almost impossible for the second cart to sneak through with you. It will damage the gate and there are cameras.
