It has 158 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 24, 2026. Palgate is an integration that controls Palgate gate controllers from Home Assistant through a gate cover entity. The cover can open the gate and send a stop command, which in most gates inverts the movement, and it supports custom open, stay-open and close times. A relay mode selector, disabled by default, switches the gate between normal, hold open and hold closed, provided the linked phone's user has the needed permission. Actions cover listing, adding, removing and updating authorized gate users, and reading a gate's access log. It relies on the vendor's cloud and is set up in the UI by linking a phone with the Palgate app, after which one or more gates can be selected. The README describes it as unofficial.
