McGrath G5 Wi-Fi Gateway – Type-C USB – 2.4GHz & 5GHz
The McGrath G5 Gateway is a dedicated Wi-Fi bridge that connects compatible McGrath smart locks and devices to your local network and the internet. It enables secure remote management via the McGrath Locks App.
This is not a lock. The G5 does not provide locking hardware or user credentials. It acts purely as a communication bridge between Bluetooth-enabled McGrath devices and your Wi-Fi network.
When installed within the recommended range, the gateway allows administrators to remotely unlock devices, modify user permissions, delete users and review access activity from anywhere with internet connectivity.
Usually same day if ordered before 11am AEST (excluding weekends and QLD public holidays)
Key Features
- Enables remote management of compatible McGrath smart locks and devices.
- Supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi networks.
- Type-C USB powered.
- Recommended operating range of approximately 8–15 metres from lock (environment dependent).
- One gateway supports up to 100 compatible devices.
- Mesh-style linking between multiple gateways for improved resilience.
- Wall or ceiling mountable.
The G5 connects to your local Wi-Fi network and maintains Bluetooth communication with nearby compatible McGrath locks. When a remote command is issued in the app, the instruction travels via the internet to the gateway, which then transmits the command locally to the lock via Bluetooth. The gateway does not perform locking functions itself; it simply relays commands securely between the cloud and the device.
