Hi all!
I am looking to install swing gates to my driveway which is the only entrance to my premises. I would like to install electric gates and have been looking at the various options & actuators. However I would also like the ability to open them manually from the street for callers / postman etc. Now I know this can be done with a push-button or keypad etc - but the kids will play havoc with this! I wondered if there was any product that can be opened and pushed manually by way of say a traditional latch - overriding the automated system. I had thought of installing some form of microswitch to the latch as one messy solution.
I'm probably asking for the impossible
Thanks!
