GateCrafters.com brings a special product to gate opener accessories – a Universal Digital Gate Timer. With this compact timer unit, home and business owners will be able to control when their gate opens and closes. With several exciting features and functionalities you’ll finally be able to get the ultimate in accessibility and security that you seek out of your driveway gate. This timer has universal application due to its 12 or 24 volt operation it can function with almost every gate opener on the market. Mount inside home/business, in a gate opener control box or outdoor rated electrical box.

Controlled Open/Close
You can open and close your gate at a particular time with the gate timer via a programming sequence which allows you to open at a preset time and close at a preset time. The timer allows for this to be either: weekday only, 7-days a week, single day or a combination of the three.

Inactive Accessories Function
You can make accessories like automatic entry or exit through loop or auto-sensor inactive during “off” hours. For example during evening hours some users wish to have automatic access off to create a more secure environment. With the Universal Digital Gate Timer you can achieve this secure "off" hours setting.

Manager Opening / Auto-Reclose
This setting allows a manager to open the gate at a particular time with the gate remaining open until a preset auto-close time. Have the gate open only after an authorized individual has activated the gate but subsequently after close at a particular time. This function works great for commercial establishments like lumber yards or car lot.

Complete Gate Lockout Times
Use this function of the timer to make the gate opener access completely disabled during off hours without shutting down the system and possibly losing programming. During evening hours some users wish to have all access off limits through a particular gate, such as an auxiliary gate. It has built-in security because it programs the gate to not reopen at a certain period of time but still close if already opened.
