How to irritate your fence guy! I can't believe I screwed up the gate!

What happens here

Ken provides Josh with six extra finials as spares for future needs. They then discuss the gate's advanced safety and entry features. These include a free-exit loop sensor embedded in the driveway that detects vehicles and automatically opens the gate, a safety loop sensor directly at the gate to prevent it from closing on a stopped vehicle, and a safety beam that will trigger the gate to open if an object (like a child) breaks the beam. They also discuss a keypad entry system that allows for programmable codes for contractors or visitors, providing a log of who entered and when.

Goal: Understand and confirm the functionality of the gate's safety and access systems
