In other words, unless you have armed guards at the gate, fugettaboutit.

Since gates are only to slow down cars so golf carts have a fighting chance to cross the road, who has access is not a big deal.
What is mind boggling is at 4am the rescue truck with full lights and sirens, had to stop at the gate to push the button. Yes it only took a few seconds, but what if the button did not respond. Then running thru the closed gate works for me. Since both of us are capable of doing full compressions we can wait for the truck to push the button
