Push to Open Operation
Push-to-Open operation is a gate opener design with the arm on the inside
of the gate and the arm pushes the gate open away from the property,
rather than pulling it in towards the property as in standard operation. Push-
to-Open is useful for properties with inclining driveways, a lack of space for
opener arm placement or opening (i.e. a wall parallel with the driveway close
to the post), or many other reasons.
The Push-to-Open
setback is the standard
setback flipped
horizontally.
Measure 5” back toward
the property then make a
90 de
gree turn towards the
drive-
way. Measure 5” in
towards the driveway, this
point is
the back pivot point for
your operator arm.

1. Set up open stop points for your gate. The open stop points can be a plate on
the end of the gate that comes in contact with an adjacent post or an industrial
door stop. (Many gates need an
extension piece added to make
contact with the doorstop.
