Auto Gate Closer

[jezzad]

We have quite a heavy metal padestrian gate. I would like to have it auto close as soon as someone comes in. The gate opens inward and its been quite a task finding something to auto close it.

Tried one of these springy things - not enough power



Then tried one of these, not actually thinking it pulls and doesn’t push



Any suggestions?

Did think of this but it is outside and won’t work on the layout of our gate.

This is rated for outdoor use.. this product and the two you have tried, are the common options available and I have not personally seen any other off the shelf options.. if one these three are not going to work, standard or modified, not sure what else you stand to do..

Maybe we have more suggestions if you can share pics of the gate..
