GateBooker

Calendly for your loading dock

Film & TV basecamps — one link, zero gate chaos

Closed-set perimeters mean every vendor truck competes for the same gate. GateBooker coordinates honeywagons, generators, and equipment arrivals with SMS booking — supervisors scan QR at the lot entrance.

Key capabilities

Same SMS-first dock scheduling — tailored to this industry.

Closed-set vendor control

Approved vendors only — one scheduling link tied to shoot-day windows and perimeter rules.

Basecamp equipment slots

Honeywagons, generators, and grip trucks get timed windows so the lot gate never jams.

Unit move coordination

Align vendor arrivals with location changes — reschedule via web link when the unit moves.

Text-confirmed arrivals

Drivers claim slots, enter plates, and receive SMS + QR — running late? Reply to the text.

How it works

Calendly for your loading dock — from one coordinator link to verified arrivals in minutes.

  1. Step 1

    Pin your loading dock

    Drop a pin on your venue map, set 30-minute arrival windows, and define staging bays — one calendar for every vendor.

  2. Step 2

    Send one scheduling link

    Share a single link with caterers, AV, staging, and every independent vendor. No spreadsheets, no group texts.

  3. Step 3

    Vendors claim via SMS

    Drivers click the link, pick a slot, enter their plate — no app download, no account. Confirmation + QR code arrives by text.

  4. Step 4

    Scan at the gate

    Gate supervisors scan plate or QR with their phone, verify instantly, and point trucks to the right bay. Traffic keeps moving.
