Electric Gates Openers: Convenient and Decorative

By Jeremy Steinbren


A driveway can be defined as a private road. It is a private road for local access. It provides access to one building structure or a small group of structures. A driveway is often owned, managed and maintained by an individual or group or individuals. Driveways can be decorated, like in ways that public roads which can not be. This is due to their lighter traffic. It is also due to the willingness of an owner to invest in their construction. Driveways are often not resurfaced or snow blown or kept up by any governmental body. These gates are often designed to conform to the often age old architecture of home or other building to which the driveway is connected home or other building.

The cars are often parked in longer driveways and that leaves the streets clear from the traffic. In the city of Pasadena, there is a certain time limit for parking. The cars cannot be parked from 2 am till 6 am. This results in deeper driveways having been built. Residential driveways are also frequently used by their owners for things such as a Garage Sale or an auction, auto washing, repair, recreation etc., most notably in North America for playing a game of basketball. Material used for building driveways includes concrete and cement, decorative bricks, in combination with grass or other ground cover plants.

Most work when a radio signal is transmitted to a receiver that is wired to a control box. The control box reads whether to open or shut the gate. They are typically powered by electricity but can also be solar powered. Because there are different types of gates there are different power supplies for them. For heavy-duty or commercial use three phase wiring may be needed. The majority will use 240 volts. Closing can be done by a timer or by pressing a transmitter button. The time it takes to close depends a lot upon how heavy it is. An average gate will open in about 20 seconds. One of the few things that can keep a gate from opening is snow, but if the snow is removed there should be no problems.

There are a wide range of electric gate kit accessories to ensure that there is enough demand for any property owner. One of the biggest brands of electric gate manufacturers are GiBiDi and they offer a wide range of gate openers. There are above ground gate kits which include arm actuators, articulated arms, hydraulic arms (for heavier and larger gates) and sliding gate kits. As well as above ground gate kits, there are underground gate kits which can be installed into the ground to make your gates look more stylish. If you own a large, heavier driveway gate then a hydraulic gate kit would be more advisable to support it's weight.

Driveway gates are becoming more and more popular for residential use although automation kits are less popular. The time to change to gate automation is now and it's never been so easy! Most electric gate kits are quick and easy to install and are becoming more affordable. To get the most of your gates, it would be advised that you install an intercom system which would allow your guests to call through and allow yourself to open your gates for them. There is a wide range of gate intercom kits including ones with cameras and others with code locks.
