ELECTRIC FENCING GATES
GATEWAY SETS
Spring gate set – the practical gate
A spring gate set consists of 4 parts: the gate handle, gate handle insulator, gate tensioning spring and the insulator for attaching the spring. Patura spring gate sets contain an especially large spring and and are suitable for all gate widths from 3 to 5 metres. In the opened condition the spring carries no current, contracts to about 25cm and hangs down, with the handle from the gatepost. To shut the gate, the gate handle and spring are attached to the gate insulator on the other side of the gate. From here, the gate handle and spring obtain the current.
Gates in the Fence – 5 basic rules
1. Keepthenumberofgatestoa minimum, as gates are always a weak point in the fence.
2. Ifpossible,ensurethatthegateis on level ground, as the gate area is always endangered by erosion.
3. Youwillsimplifythefence construction by putting the gates in the preferred corner areas.
4. Neverrunthecurrentthrough gate itself from one side to the other, rather use high voltage cable to pass it under the gate.
5. Donotusespringgatesetsin horse fences.
