how wide and tall is the gate and whats the ground its going into?
well I have the instructions now, with install guide. Basically the box is tiny, and only requires around 100mm of concrete on all sides. No studs come out the bottom.
The only pain will be installing the soak away for the drains in the casings as they have already had it block paved.
I will be adding around 200mm concrete all the way round. the gates are around 2m wide, and about 1.6m tall. The will have a top pivot from the wall.
All the wiring is in place :) My only issue is that the drive has a slight slope(right pillar to left) and the bases have to exactly level. so in theory one motor case will come out ever so slightly more than the other.
Slowly slowly for setting level!!!
I know what you mean about the concrete. I will just run a line across and that will have to be that! they don't want all the block work redone so its perfectly level. We are talking about mm over 4m.

thats the manufacturers instructions. The motors will be against the backs of the pillars.
It will be fine as long as you get it right first time! I think I would have nightmares about that. I think it's one of those jobs that is really simple once you know how but until then a nightmare, good luck with it though! Post some pics when it's done
