With the Estate Swing Solar series, you can automate your residential gate by harnessing the power of the sun. Estate Swing gate openers are designed for DIY customers, featuring easy bolt-on brackets and simple setback templates. Estate Swing has made it easy for any homeowner to install their gate opener and automate their gate. All Estate Swing units are built to the highest standards worldwide, meeting and exceeding UL standards for anti-crushing safety. Each unit undergoes rigorous quality control testing on every component. You won't be disappointed with the E-S 1000H-5W solar option; it operates quietly and quickly reaches its extended length, coming standard with one of the most solar-efficient gate boards on the market today (battery not included). Several variables must be considered when determining how many times a solar panel will allow your battery to open and close the gate, including geographic location, battery size, gate length and weight, and the number of add-on components plugged in. The E-S 1000H-5W unit is capable of both pushing and pulling to open your gate.
