Looking to make our wooden gates electric so they are more secure and easier to get in and out. Slightly alarmed as seen figures online that run into thousands. We have existing gates that are fine just need the electric bit but we are clueless about things like this. Can you get someone (who?) to install the electric bits? Any recommendations?

If you are looking to transform a wooden gate into an electric gate, be very careful because what you are creating is technically a machine. Children have been crushed and subsequently died in electric gates which have not been fitted with the correct safety features, always make sure you work with a professional installer who has undergone the appropriate training to work with this type of gate. Visit www.gate-safe.org for more information and to find a Gate Safe Aware installer.
