| 1. The patented pressure
release mechanism allows the gate to "pop" open faster than you
bump into it.
2. The electrically conductive
rubber bumper sleeve has a cushioning effect while still maintaining
a completely electrified field.
3. The electrically conductive
fiberglass extension can be adjusted to give the gate an overall
length of 10 feet to 16 1/2 feet simply by pulling it out with
pliers or pushing it in. It is also very flexible and durable.
4. The 'Forever Flex' tip
made of soft PVC plastic is moulded to the fiberglass rod. It
has soft fingers that are designed to push themselves out of
crevices and snags if they make contact.
5. The patented 'Wind Gust
Damper' "locks" the gate shut quickly once a vehicle is through.
It also keeps the gate from swaying in strong wind.
6. The gate is insulated
from the post with an insulator back. The gate is easily installed
using the two lag bolts and special insulator bushings supplied.
Also supplied are useful hints and tips on the gate and electric
fencing. Ecklund has 30 years' experience in electric fencing.
This combination of features
makes a gate that is simple, easy to use, effective and attractive
- designed to give many seasons of dependable use and guaranteed
for 3 years against breakage. The gate simply pops open faster
than you bump into it and closes automatically behind you.
Mr. Ecklund invented this
gate as an answer to the time-consuming and potentially dangerous
chore of opening, watching and closing gates. After three years
of extensive use on a 300 cow/calf, feeder to finish operation,
it went public. In the company's tenth year of business the
gates are successfully used in a wide range of applications
such as small cow/calf operations, dairies, major feedlots,
community pastures, gravel pits and oil leases.
