Several Army installations in Georgia have gates that stay open 24 hours a day. These gates can help service members, families and approved visitors who need to arrive late at night or early in the morning. Access rules still apply at every gate.

Before You Go

Bring the identification required for your type of visit. If you do not already have installation access, you may need a pass or background check. Visitor-center hours are separate from gate hours and may be shorter. Gate schedules can also change for security, construction or special events, so check the current access notice before a late trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a 24-hour gate mean anyone can enter?

No. The gate may be staffed all day, but normal Army access rules still apply. Visitors may need approved identification, a pass or screening.

Is the visitor center always open 24 hours too?

No. Some visitor centers are open around the clock, but many keep shorter hours. Check the visitor-center schedule separately from the gate schedule.
