HS93:
dont know if this is the right place to post this but hear goes, I am in need of an automated gate for my house , about 3 meters long , has anybody played with such things ? it will be rought iron and about 900mm high , I want a single gate as that suits the path the best also i want to go for an underground opperating system, anyway is anybody using or used this type of system and can give me some pointers what to avoid etc

thanks

Bernd:
It's in the right place.

First, will the gate swing open or slide sideways to open?

Bernd
HS93:
Its a single gate swinging, no space for a slider, needs to open about 85deg only as the front of the property is not square

thanks

Bernd:
Best I can come up with is some type of ackerman linkage, such as used on automobiles steering to activate the gate.

Not much help, I know. Have you tried a search of the net to see if there are any ideas out there?

Bernd
HS93:
yes there are plenty of units, some electric some hydrolic some use underground units some use actuater linnear arms, what i hoping for is if someone has knoledge of them and which is the best way to go, and what to avoid, or if some one has built a unit.

thanks

Peter
