The honest breakdown: barriers, cameras, cabling, foundation, software and the line items quotes often hide.
Pre-authorization, self-service and fallback — patterns that keep visitors moving without a front-desk queue.
Why the coating matters more than the motor, and the maintenance schedule that keeps 10M-cycle drives honest.
