Qué cubre este vídeo

Matt and Kristen install a solar-powered, dual-arm electric gate system on their off-grid property.5:06 After completing a wooden fence, they mount the gate actuators using Tapcon fasteners into the wall and gate frame, opting against through-bolts to maintain the fence's aesthetic.8:31 They route power cables through a pre-installed underground conduit by using a vacuum to pull a string through the pipe, which then serves as a pull-line for the electrical wiring.13:19 The system runs on two 12-volt batteries charged by solar panels.5:12 During initial testing, the gate arms operate with slight timing delays and uneven opening angles, requiring minor mechanical adjustments and lubrication of the hinges.19:10 The installation provides remote-controlled access to the property, replacing manual operation.1:08
