How to install automatic gate opener
What happens here
Unpack all the components of the Ghost Controls gate opener kit. This typically includes the main gate opener arm (actuator), the control box, a battery box kit, an automatic gate lock, various mounting brackets (post bracket, gate bracket), and the owner's manual. Visually inspect all parts for damage and ensure everything listed in the manual is present. Pay attention to the different types of mounting brackets and their intended use, as shown in the manual for 'pull-to-open' vs 'push-to-open' gate configurations.
Goal: Familiarize with all parts of the gate opener kit
