We are on the inside of the
property looking out towards the road and the gate swings in towards the house. You need to measure from the center
of the hinge, back towards the house 13" and over to the left 6". This is where the rear of the actuator arm needs to
mount. The mounting geometry is very important so your gate opener will work with a minimal amount of effort and last
a long time.
The high quality Patriot gate opener should last 10 or 15 years if mounted properly on
a gate that is level and plumb on ball bearing hinges with a grease fitting.
Patriot gate openers will pull the gate in towards the house or push the gate out towards
the road with the standard mounting hardware provided with the unit. The Patriot gate opener hardware includes a 2"x2" square
tube 17" long. You will need to cut the tube to the right length to acheive the correct mounting dimensions and weld the tube
to the post the gate swings on.
The Patriot gate opener is available solar or ac powered. The charging source and radio
controls are included in the price.
We do offer bolt on style brackets if you do not have access to a welder. You can install
this unit yourself and save a ton of cash. If you have any problems or questions you can call us and we will walk
you right through the problem. We will give you no information before we give you bad information. If we don't know the answer,
we will find the answer and get back with you.
