Low-Cost Electrified Drive Through Gate
You "l l like the price tag on this new electrified drive-through livestock gate introduced by Gerald Recker, Dyersville, Iowa.It sells for $55, which is about half the cost of competing gates, according to Recker. For another $20 you can buy optional streamers to make the electrified gate more visible.
The spring-loaded gate connects to any electric (battery or 110-V) fence controller (not supplied). It's self-opening and closing, and its 3/8 in. dia. flexible fiberglass swinging arms adjust to span gate openings up to 20 ft. wide. It can be locked in the open position and has an insulated handle for pedestrian walk-through. Protective tips on the outer ends of the swinging arms prevent scratching of vehicles or tractors as they're driven through.
