Drive-Through Gate For ATVs ATV S Checking cattle on his South Dakota ranch has been easier for Bill Gottsleben since he began building drive-through gates about 5 years ago The tires of his ATV push the hinged gate to the ground for him to drive over And with its self-standing frame the gate is portable and ties in easily to any fence “At first I made them narrower for a 4-wheeler but now I make them wide enough for a side-by-side ” Gottsleben says The outside of the frame is 7 ft 6 in wide and 7 ft 3 in tall to accommodate cabs on UTVs A hinge on the bottom lets the gate open from both directions Rubber belting on the top helps stop the gate from swinging back and forth “I’ve never had any cattle push it open and go through ” Gottsleben says The rancher and a couple of employees build the 300-lb units out of steel tubing and sell them for $450 Since posting videos on Facebook Gottsleben has seen increased demand and has found dealers in South Dakota and neighboring states He welcomes inquiries from potential dealers Check out the Facebook videos to see how the gate works Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Bill’s Gates Manufacturing LLC 21176 E Grindstone Rd Philip S Dak 57567 ph 605 685-3220; Facebook – Bill’s Gates Manufacturing LLC
