How will I know what type of swing gate operator will be best for my need?

There are two types of operating systems of swing gates: hydraulic systems and electromechanical systems. Hydraulic systems are quieter and can withstand great wind force.

The swing gates use arms attached to the panels and the posts. The arms are driven by a motor and retract to open the gate. In the case of solid sliding gates, there is a motorized gear wheel which moves the panel left or right.

Why doesn't my gate open?

If you have checked the driveway gate track and it's free of obstacles and debris, check the residential gate openers. Make sure the system is plugged-in and there's power in the house. If the gate moves by the control button, check the batteries of the gate clicker.
