    Hello, I was looking for such a system of opening the gate with the help of a remote control that I would mount in the car and when I drive up to the gate it will open by itself. For now, I do not have a system yet, because it may be that I will make the actuator myself.

    Look for the thread on the electrode.
    As I know life, you probably want it to open earlier and to smoothly enter the property without stopping.

    Hello.
    I recommend the PROXIMA remote control, available on the popular auction site along with assembly instructions. It is installed in the vehicle and attached to the traffic lights or horn. I myself have one installed and I control it with an entrance gate - one light pulse, and a garage door - two impulses. Works great and I don't have to remember about the standard remote control.
    Greetings.

    You can choose from fully automatic solutions -
    the cheapest bluetooth transponder (approx. PLN 200 - range up to 10 m but as a short range radio - a bit unpredictable), induction loop - reliable, used professionally but expensive (from PLN 800 two-channel and requires demolition of the driveway for the wire position) and a similar price detector radar (there are cheap radar detectors but they work on everything, a radar that detects the direction of movement and size - that is, the ability to distinguish between auto - a person starts from 700 PLN and you need two).

    Hello,
    Maybe colleagues familiar with SOMFY solutions using geolocation (GPS),
    widely advertised in the media, write about the details of this solution and assess its suitability for a colleague Pawel2990?

    Or maybe a GSM controller? Even Proxima?
    When you are close to home, you release the arrow and the gate opens!

    And it certainly is easier (safer when driving a car) than pressing the usual button on an ordinary remote control ???

    Hello, there is also the possibility of connecting additional photocells, which after interruption will give a signal to open with temporary shutdown.
    .If only talking about leaving the property, GSM is also a good option or an induction pent, but if a colleague writes, you would have to cut or dismantle the ankle.

    And it depends on what car you have and the degree of its integration with the phone.

    The advantage of this solution is the ability to open the gate regardless of the distance from the property - if you are in a hurry, you open 2 intersections. How is it not easier to just use a regular remote control?
