Words from our senior application specialist Anthony Gaeto:
"The Gate Crafters proximity card reader and keypad is a great installment for any gate or door that is going to be used in a situation where a lot of people will be coming in and out and you want the convenience of not having everyone type in a code.

At only $2.00 per card, it is a great advantage to buy your employees proximity cards over remotes and they will appreciate the convenience of simply swiping a card by the face. And with a keypad as well, the guests to the property that do not have cards will still have access through a code if you choose to give them one.

The keypad was designed by a manufacturer that works closely with solar products so they have made sure to keep the energy consumption to a minimum; making this keypad a great choice for solar applications.

We take great pride in knowing our accessories and understanding how they work. The Gate Crafters Proximity card reader/keypad has been thoroughly tested by myself and my team and meets our high standards for recommended accessories."

The solar panel is completely weatherproof and virtually indestructible. Estate Swing's non-glass solar panels feature a clear front covering and are mounted to an anodized aluminum frame. The heart of the solar panel is the collection of solar cells, which optimizes the amount of energy absorbed even in low light situations. Each cell transforms the sunlight into energy through a photovoltaic process (converting photons into electrons). Working as a cohesive unit these cells can generate electricity that will work with solar compatible gate opener systems. As a rule of thumb; heavier gates and/or more frequent cycles (a cycle is defined as one open and closure) the more solar wattage you’ll need. Review your gate opener manual for information on which panel would best suit your needs.

*Make and model may vary from picture above.

Optimum Orientation for Solar Panels: (Your Latitude x 0.9)+ 29 Degrees= # of degrees your panel should be angled towards true South from the horizontal position (laying flat pointing directly up)

This surge suppressor interrupts those surges right before they reach the control board. The surge suppressor has the capabilities for the following:

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.
