Our gates are finally starting to move toward completion. D&C came out to deliver the gates about ten days ago. They returned last week to begin installation.

Pictured here is the housing for the electronics and driving motor. They trenched for the electrical, but we will have to get an electrician to connect to the power at the lift station panel.

The two sided mechanical locks they installed just happened to be identical to the one we purchased for the crossbridge gate.

I noticed that they installed the digital panel and bollards closer to the curb on the left than the end of the fence is. The supervisor looked in disbelief and they had indeed put it too close and now an entering vehicle or boat would have to veer to the right after entering the code on the keypad to avoid hitting the end of the fence.

They then installed an additional bollard, filled with concrete, in front of the end of the fence to protect it from boat fenders, wheels, and such. Our contract did not specify whether we would have a wireless or hard wired control keypad. After talking about it, they offered to install the more costly hard wired version at no additional cost.
