Installed on a wooden handcrafted fence (each gate is 8' across/ 4' high). Opens and closes very smooth and fast enough for my needs. Took the better part of a day to do (including the electrical). They are mounted on 5" wood/round posts. Gates are an estimated 100-150 pounds. Wiring was straight forward and easy to do (all color coded). Unit has some advanced features like lights and external gate switch that I did not get. Nice feature for future use. Programming was a little challenging at first, but once i read the instructions a few times and played around it was not that difficult. There are also lots of gate opening/closing (programables) options that gives it lots of versatility. I liked this part. Manual was easy enough to read, Just lots of details for a first timer like myself. The only issue i really had was the limit switch. Manual was not fully clear for this newbie. Without setting the limit switch the gate does not open/close correctly, so the limits must be set. I only need to adjust the limit switch for the closing option. It slides back and forth easy enough. Once i had it set, I tightened the screw and it worked perfectly after that. Another issue was the play in the mount. Only my 5" wooden post the steel mounts had about a half inch play, which meant about 6-8" play where the gates meet. This is enough for my dog to squeeze through. My solution was to put a back support on the mounting. This reduced the play to precent my dog from slipping through. Yes I did think about an aligner where the gates meet, but this may have closing problems during the winter. Overall it was an enjoyable days work.
