Tips
Precautions
Electric fence is a pain barrier, not a physical barrier. A common mistake is not electrifying it. Animals may escape or become entangled (and may die). On a % basis, entanglement is very rare, but it can and does occur. If animals are scared or starved it will not keep them in.
Netting must be moved when tall grass covers the lower “hot” strands. The alternative? Apply a strip of herbicide to kill vegetation.
Warning! Due to risk of fire, do NOT use continuous output energizers with electric netting or electro-plastic conductors such as rope, twine or tape. Use only with a low or wide impedance intermittent pulse energizer. (Fi-Shock™ brand energizers which are sold as low impedance, continuous current output should NOT be used with electric netting.) All energizers sold on Premier’s website use an intermittent pulse and are suitable for use with electric netting.
Dry conditions and wintertime usage may reduce the effectiveness of electric netting. We do not recommend the use of electric netting during harsh winter conditions—ice and heavy snow can flatten netting and thereby damage it.
Dry or frozen ground may cause post spikes to bend or break if inserted with force. Pilot holes may be needed.

The gate works and the quality of the materials is good like the rest of the net fencing.
A few thoughts on design modifications: I think the baseplate on the latching side could be a little bigger and possibly have molded in spikes that are flared…kind of like plastic tent spikes are wedge shaped. The socket on the baseplate should be a little deeper as well. The only other thing is that there is a lip inside the handle/latch that catches on the top of the pole it slips over. I think I understand this is intentional to prevent the latching handle from slipping off. This does make it a little difficult to unlatch the gate one handed. Not impossible; but, I think it’s fair to say a lot of times we’re all carrying something in at least one hand.

Quick delivery! Fence and gate went together much easier than I expected. Only took about an hour to have everything up and running.

Works exactly as described. We have been struggling for quite a while without the gate. Now going in and out of the enclosure is easy. The gate has made it so much simpler.
Jennifer D from Texas
This gate is easy to set up and a must have if you have an electric fence set up. Our 10 year old twins can turn off the fence, walk through the gate and take care of the girls.
We put the solar powered energizer on a T-post next to gate opening and we never have any issues turning it off and on to access the new chicken yard.
This system has been a game changer and we are purchasing another one for our garden area and will increase the chicken area after our grass grows.

Stays put. I like the fact that there is a plastic nook in the bottom, in which to place the gate. Good strong handle.
