Solar Powered Gate Opener
2
Ordered a solar-powered gate opener two years ago. It has worked about one month in that whole time. I don't have time to list all the problems, and you don't want to read them. Just stay away from GateCrafters. I WASTED over $2, 000 of my hard-earned money on this poorly-engineered, cheap junk. They sent me new arms, that didn't help. They sent me a new control board, that didn't help. The remote receiver is broken now. And multiple times they have sent me the wrong parts. Sent in the second control board for assessment 6 weeks ago, still no reply. Their service department tries, but ultimately nothing they suggest ever works and the years go on with a bunch of non-working junk attached to my gate. I've given up and am having a professional install a quality system. Do yourself a favor. Don't buy a cheap junk gate opener like this. Either do without or buy quality. If you really want to waste $2, 000, go burn it in your fireplace because at least it will warm up your house.
