The CP-4 Automatic Gate Opener is a self-contained exit sensor that opens gates automatically as vehicles leave, offering a hands-free solution for electric or solar-powered systems. Using advanced magnetometer technology, it detects only moving steel, eliminating false triggers from people or animals, and integrates easily with any gate operator using universal voltage and relay compatibility.
With no external circuit board, the CP-4 wires directly to the gate’s free exit terminals, making installation quick and clean. Its weatherproof, conduit-ready housing and ultra-low standby current, 95% lower than standard systems, make it especially ideal for solar gates. For best results, install away from the gate, ensuring vehicles pass over the sensor at a minimum of five miles per hour.
Gate Crafters offers more expert assistance than anyone.
