Ghost gives his approval to this DuraGates installation.
Our client up in British Columbia shared his DuraGates hardware installation from start to finish. This midsize gate, 16FT x 700LBS, uses Model CGS-250.8P. The gate is automated using a BFT ARES rack & pinion slide gate operator. The wire bracing helps keep the gate level and prevent sagging. The "job foreman" in the photo is Ghost.
