— FOR CHAIRMEN & Facility Managers

Limestone is the platform Nigerian estate chairmen and facility managers use to run their communities without becoming the bottleneck. Dues, access, security response, complaints, and resident communication, in one place.

Reliable estate access

Residents should never be stranded outside their own home.

Limestone keeps the essential gate workflow on site. Residents and guests can still be verified during an internet outage, guards do not need to borrow a hotspot, and the estate record updates when service returns.

Estate internet downGate access active

    The central record reconciles when connectivity returns.

— The day-to-day reality

Every Nigerian estate runs
on the same five things
breaking at once.

Not because your team is bad but because the tools are paper, WhatsApp, and the chairman's personal memory. Here's what we see in nearly every estate we onboard.

What it looks like
in a real estate.

Five moments from a 412-unit Lekki estate already on Limestone. The names are real; the data is anonymised.

07:42 · MONDAY MORNING

A school-run pickup, without the phone call.

Mrs Adesuwa Okafor's driver, Adeyemi, is at the gate to pick up her son. Mrs Okafor approved the entry from her StoneCircle app on her way to a 7 a.m. meeting. The gate guard sees the code, lets the car in. No phone call. No queue.

07:42:08 GATE.1 code 8821-D verified
07:42:09 Adeyemi D. · Ford Ranger · approved by Adesuwa O.
07:42:12 APP push: "Check-in" → Adesuwa
11:14 · MONTH-END

Dues collection by Tuesday.

It's the last working day of August. Mrs Chiamaka, the finance officer, opens StoneCircle Admin. 78% collected. She taps a button, automated reminders go out to the 22% who haven't paid, via WhatsApp, SMS, and the app. Three minutes of her time.

DUES · AUG · ₦2.4M of ₦3.1M (78%)

14:08:11 +₦185,000 · Block 4 · J. Okafor
17:22:04 +₦92,500 · Block 7 · M. Bello
02:14 · TUESDAY NIGHT

A panic alert, routed and timed.

Mr Jerome presses panic from his phone. The alert lands simultaneously on the gate kiosk, on the FM's phone, and on the chairman's dashboard. Live location, 30 seconds for security to acknowledge, 2 minutes 18 seconds to resolution. Documented before sunrise.

02:14:00 PANIC · Block 7 · Mr Jerome
02:14:12 ACK by Gate 1 (Mr Bello, on shift)
02:14:30 Patrol dispatched, live location shared
02:16:18 RESOLVED · "false alarm — fence wind"
10:00 · THE AGM

A chairman who actually has numbers.

Annual General Meeting. The chairman doesn't open Excel. He projects StoneCircle Admin. Dues rate, response times, complaint resolution, gate uptime - all there. Residents see the data. The vote on next year's dues passes in 8 minutes.

ANNUAL REPORT · 2026
Dues collection: 87% avg (up from 62%)
Avg panic response: 2m 18s
Complaints resolved on SLA: 91%
Gate uptime: 99.4%
18:30 · THE HANDOVER

A login, not a carton of papers.

The outgoing chairman finishes his two-year term. Instead of a carton of files and a WhatsApp admin transfer, he hands the incoming exco a login. Every resident record, payment history, complaint, vendor contact, and gate log is already in the estate's account. The new chairman's first week is reading dashboards, not reconstructing history. The estate keeps its memory. The handover takes an afternoon, not a quarter.

What changes
in the first quarter.

+25%
Average lift in dues collection rate within 90 days

"We were at 62% for years. Three months on Limestone, we hit 87%."— A 412-unit estate, Lekki

2m 18s
Average panic-to-resolution time, across our customer base

"Knowing what happened the night before, before I open my email - that's the difference."— Mr Tayo, Facility Manager

99.4%
Gate continuity through internet outages, with locally saved events

"Even when Glo went down for half a day, the gate kept logging. We just synced when it came back."— Avocado Estate, Facility Manager

Limestone runs estates from 15 to 800+ units, the platform scales with the gate count, and so does the price.

What the
chairmen and Facility Managers say.

The most demanding users aren't the residents, they're the people accountable when something goes wrong. This is what they tell us.

"

The adoption was exceptionally easy. Even our security personnel regardless of their prior technical expertise were able to onboard our residents with remarkable ease.

I've been using the Limestone app for over a year. I can send an access code to my visitors right from my office, no walking down to the gate. The estate finally feels run, not endured.

Before Limestone, every Annual General Meeting was a fight about money nobody could prove. Now I project the dashboard and the numbers speak for themselves. We passed the dues vote in eight minutes.
