Capture the installation site correctly the first time.
A reliable quotation starts with a reliable survey. OVERXXI gives gate professionals a structured place to record the opening, environment, constraints and supporting evidence at the customer site.
Measurements with context
Record opening dimensions, returns, levels, posts, power availability, access constraints and observations against the correct site rather than in unstructured messages.
Field evidence attached to the job
Authorised mobile users can capture photos and send field findings directly to the associated project, helping office teams understand what was observed.
A stronger handover
Completed survey information can flow into gate configuration, technical review and quotation, reducing transcription mistakes and repeated site questions.
What a useful gate survey records
An effective survey covers more than the clear opening. It should capture opening width and height, available returns, ground levels and slope, supporting posts or walls, drainage, underground-service concerns, power availability, vehicle movement, pedestrian access and any obstruction affecting travel or safety.
Photographs should provide orientation as well as detail. A wide image explains the approach and surroundings; closer images record posts, surfaces, hinges, tracks, cable routes and areas requiring further investigation. Notes should distinguish observed facts from assumptions that still require confirmation.
Measurements need context and verification
A number without a clear reference point can be misleading. Teams should agree whether a width is measured between finished faces, structural posts or proposed new posts, and whether a height follows the lowest, highest or designed finished ground level.
AR-assisted measurements can accelerate discussion and provide an initial spatial reference, but they remain subject to camera tracking, lighting, surface detection and device limitations. Dimensions used for manufacture or installation should be approved against appropriate physical measurements and technical checks.
Turn evidence into a reliable handover
When survey evidence is attached to the correct client, project and site, office staff can review it without asking the field worker to reconstruct the visit. The configuration can then reference the same opening, constraints and photographs.
Missing information should remain visibly incomplete instead of being replaced by a convenient guess. A return visit costs time, but manufacturing or quoting from an unsupported assumption can cost considerably more.
A repeatable field routine
Before leaving, confirm that the correct site is open in the application, capture overview images, record dimensions from agreed reference points, note ground and access constraints, check power and safety-device locations, and review the saved information while still at the property.
After synchronisation, the office should verify that photographs and observations are legible and that any uncertainty has an owner. This simple review step makes the survey useful to configuration, pricing and installation rather than merely proving that a visit occurred.
