The Estate Swing wireless 4-channel digital keypad is a must-have for every gate opener. It can store 4 access codes, each sending a uniquely coded signal. This is important because each code can independently control its own device, or all 4 can control the same gate. Use the codes for family, friends, lawn services, deliveries, etc., or assign them to the gate, pedestrian gate, garage, or daytime-only access.
Some possibilities are as follows:
Each Estate Swing receiver comes with two channels. The first channel is used by the gate opener to open and close the gate; the second channel is available for other uses. For example, if you purchase a timer, you could wire the second channel to the timer and have that channel active only during business hours. You can program one access code to trigger channel 1 and open the gate at any time, while programming a second code for channel 2 to allow access only during business hours.
If your garage is within 200 feet of your gate, you could add an Estate Swing receiver to the garage door opener. Then, you could program one access code for the gate and another for the garage door.
If you have a pedestrian gate with an electric lock, you could add an Estate Swing receiver to the lock kit. This would allow you to release the lock through the same keypad as the gate opener.
Alternatively, you can program multiple codes to the receiver that comes with your Estate Swing. Keep one code for family members, which you know will never need to change, and use the other codes for deliveries or lawn services. If you need to change one of them, your family members won’t need to memorize a new code.
During night hours, after a key is pressed, the keypad illuminates with a bright yet attractive blue LED. The LED will remain lit while the keypad is in use, then turn off to conserve battery power.
An additional popular feature is the single-digit secondary transmission. After entering an access code, you can press any numerical key on the keypad within approximately 20 seconds to send a second signal. This is useful if you need to stop or reverse the gate because it is about to hit an obstacle.
The residential keypad housing is made of UV-protected black ABS plastic. The buttons on the residential version are backlit in white when pressed. The keypad housing is constructed from hardened polymer and has a matte black finish. The keypad is surface-lit by a blue LED light when a key is pressed. Both versions are designed for easy mounting and blend well aesthetically with a keypad stand or can be surface-mounted to a column, fence, or garage door frame. They are completely weatherproof and require no hood or cover to protect them from the elements.
4 Channels: Control up to four devices with a single keypad
Long range: 200+ foot wireless signal
Night Use: Keypad LED illuminates when numbers are pressed
Battery Powered: Requires a 9V battery (lithium battery recommended) not included
Secure: Locked to mounting plate, requires specialized provided tool for removal

Gate Crafters has actual experience. We have a testing area, we have factory and internal training courses, we build gates and have our own gates that are automated, we attended all industry trade shows in multiple countries and are a member of the AFA, and we pay visits to our chosen manufacturers' factories. All these factors are what have lead to us having so many exclusive additions. When you see and actually use as many products as we have you tend to have many ideas for minor changes that have major impacts. We acted on these ideas and have utilized them to help thousands of customers automate their gates.
In the world of automatic gate openers, a common new feature you’ll see is as a gate closes it slows down for the last few feet instead of banging shut. This reduces the banging noise as well as takes stress off the physical components of the gate and gate opener.
One problem with this feature is the lack of momentum as the gate closes reduces the amount of weight hitting the lock to below the weight needed for the gate to fully close and lock. Instead, the gate latches rest on top of each other without fully locking, leaving your gate unprotected against forced entry and wind.
What separates the Estate Swing lock from the rest of the competition is that it requires less than 1 pound of weight for the gate to lock. Other locks require approximately 5 pounds of weight, which is no longer generated from the momentum of the gate because of the slow down feature.
Another benefit of the Estate Swing lock is the unique pivot design reduces power consumption. The older model locks require 3 amps to pull the latch open because they pull back on a direct linear path. The Estate Swing lock requires less than 1 amp because it works on a swivel, making the pulling action much easier.
The reduction in power required for the lock means less strain is put on the system as a whole as power is distributed through the motor and control board. Since less power is then required from the system, you can reliably active and run the motor, power accessories, get a longer life span from battery systems, and will not stress the circuitry of the control board of the gate opener.
The best features of the new Estate Swing Lock, however, are that it is compatible with all of our gate opener models here at GateCrafters.com and it comes with a 2yr warranty!

Words from Senior Application Engineer, Anthony Gaeto
“The are multiple type of driveway gate locks available on the market today. The main two types of gate locks are solenoid locks and electromagnetic locks. Each type of gate lock has it advantages and disadvantages.
Before we discuss gate locks, I’d like to go over pin locks. These locks are made to lock your gate opener to the post or to your gate so that it helps prevent theft of your gate opener. These are simple devices that fit into the mounting locations on your gate opener, in place of the bolts that are provided in your gate opener kit.
Now let us talk about gate locking devices. The most popular type of gate locking device is the solenoid gate lock. All of these locks come with a control board and adequate an amount of wire needed to connect the gate lock to either the control board or to the master control board of your gate opener. These locks do not come with mounting hardware as each application will be unique to your gate.
We carry 3 brands of solenoid gate locks. The Estate Swing gate lock and Gate Crafters gate lock are essentially the same unit.
The GTO/PRO lock features a different type of locking tab when compared to the Estate Swing and Gate Crafters locks. The GTO/PRO locking tab has to slide back inside the unit, and this requires about 5 pounds of force to accomplish. One downside of this gate lock is that in heavy wind conditions the pin may become trapped behind the tab. Also if your gate opener has a soft stop feature, it needs to be disabled as there will not be enough force to latch the gate.
The Estate Swing and Gate Crafters lock feature a rolling type latch that takes minimal force to operate. The locking tab folds back into the unit and allow for easy locking and unlocking. In high wind conditions this lock will function the way it was intended, as the locking tab has a smooth back.
GTO/PRO also has a push to open/ open position gate lock. This is the exact same lock as the regular GTO/PRO gate lock, but it is made to either lock your gate in the open position or to be used as a push to open gate lock. To use this lock as a push to open gate lock, you will need to plan ahead with the installation however.
Gate Crafters also sells an electromagnetic gate lock. This gate lock is not compatible with solar gate opener because it is constantly drawing power. Also it the gate lock’s wire is cut, it will essentially turn this gate lock into a brick. This is due to the fact that this lock needs a constant source of electricity to function. This gate lock is ideal for high wind areas where you do not want to worry about your gate hanging up on your lock.

Surge suppression is the single largest regret for gate opener customers who have a board destroyed by some seemingly insignificant power surge. Nothing can stop a direct lightning strike but small surges happen all the time. The two largest sources are residual energy from lightning nearby and power overages when the power company restores power after an outage.
This surge suppressor interrupts those surges right before they reach the control board. The surge suppressor has the capabilities for the following:
Protect 1) 24V input or output terminal
Protect 1) 12V input or output terminal
Protect 1) accessory terminal & ground - can have as many parallel accessories leading to that terminal as needed)
If you have a gate opener and one or more accessories that connect to the same terminal and that don't have power run from the opener or the power leads straight from the battery of the opener - you only need one of these.
If you have a gate opener and accessories that are powered from the control board you will need two of these. Or if you have two accessories that lead to two different terminals you will also need two of these.

When it comes to keeping your automated gate safe a GateCrafters Infrared sensor is the way to go. Have peace of mind knowing your family and vehicle will be protected from the occasional mishap that can sometimes occur. One or two carefully placed sensors can keep your automatic gate opener from closing accidentally on a vehicle or more importantly on a person.
Having a wired sensor is more reliable and you don't need to worry about changing batteries. The GateCrafters Infrared sensor can be powered with 12/24 DC or AC voltage which can be conveniently powered off any GateCrafters low voltage automatic gate opener. With over a 30-foot range, this sensor can be used on virtually any residential or commercial driveway.
