Access Control is administered by the Club Manageress, Tracy Pomeroy-Ward, who helps part-time at the Club and can be reached by phoning 071 174 3099 or by emailing: pcciyc@gmail.com

When you are fully paid up and have received an email advising that you are successfully registered for the current year, if you have any problems with access to the Club, please contact Tracy.

First of all, your membership needs to be activated. When this is done you receive an email advising that you are successfully registered. Only then can the Clubhouse Manageress load your cell number onto the access control system when she is next on site. (She is only there part-time.)

Go onto the Google Play Store and download and install an app called G-REMOTE on to your phone.

When your number has been entered on the system, “Zandvlei Sports Club” will show up in the device list.

When you tap on this one, an “Entry” and “Exit” button will show on the screen.

Tapping on a button sends a signal to open the gate. Sometimes it doesn’t work first time because the system is updating but after a few more attempts the signal usually goes through.

G-REMOTE works erratically when there is load- shedding, and also the cellphone signals are not recognised if the cell-phone network is overloaded. So we also use a Bluetooth system which is more predictably reliable to open the gates:

Download the app Bluelock Web either from the App Store https://apps.apple.com/za/app/bluelock-web/id1483787262 or Google Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=za.co.grab.bluelockgo

Ensure Bluetooth on your smartphone is turned on.

Contact Tracy, the Club Manageress, (by phoning 021 788 4813 or 082 564 6840, or by email at pcciyc@gmail.com ) and she will then send your phone two messages with token codes, one for the entry gate and one for the exit gate. Enter these codes into the app, and a tab will appear on the app for each gate. Then anytime you need to open a gate, open the Bluelock Web app and touch the tab for the gate you wish to open when you are within 25m it.

These token codes are specific for each member’s phone number and for each gate.
