"Push 'N Drive-Over" Gate
This new drive-over gate eliminates the need to get off your tractor to open or close a gate and can be easily moved anywhere.

    The Push 'N Drive-Over Gate is made from tubular steel and can be moved and and set up by one person using a loader tractor. It can be accessed from either side.

    The gate is equipped with a spring steel "cushion rod" on each side, which is attached to a chain that runs on a poly roller. The spring's tension is controlled by adjusting a link in the chain, which determines how quickly the gate will spring back up.

    To open the gate, you simply push the vehicle's front wheels against a horizontal metal guard at the bottom of the gate, which lowers the gate to a horizontal position. Animals can't follow you out the gate because it springs right back up behind you.

    The gate is available in 6, 14 and 16-ft. widths. The 6-ft. model is designed for ATV's while the 14 and 16-ft. models are designed for tractors and trucks, etc. The vertical cushion rods are inserted into holes in the metal guard. You can walk through the gate by removing two or three of the cushion rods and then slipping them back into the holes.

    The cushion rods can be adjusted so that you can push the 16-ft. gate over with an ATV.

    "It's a simple idea and it really works good," says Chelsea Hoffman, Rem Enterprises, Swift Current, Sask. "The cushion rods are made from spring steel, so when you drive over them they flex without scratching your vehicle. You can pull a tractor and bale shredder over the gate, or even a 30-ft. trailer, through a 16-ft. gate without damaging anything. The cushion rods can be made up to 9 ft. tall to keep deer from jumping over them."

    The gate comes in a standard yellow color but can be painted any color for an additional $75 fee.

    The 6-ft. model weighs 300 lbs. and sells for $795; the 14-ft. model weighs 680 lbs. and sells for $1,500; and the 16-ft. model weighs 750 lbs. and sells for $1,775.
