Rope Gates
We personally prefer this gate over spring and SW IntelliTape gates.
Why? It's more durable and more tolerant of abuse and mild neglect. The black and white rope also increases visibility.
Note: The insulator and activator are different for steel vs. wood posts.

Sabine H from Wyoming
It was the first time installing an electric fence for me and this was easy to install and set up. So far the gate has held up well to being opened and closed and I have gotten used to just coil the soft rope up and hang it over the insulator to get it out of the way. I did not have the chance to run power across the gate underneath the soil and this conducts the energy very well to the other side when closed, without having to lay conduit. I might have to re-write the review after this coming winter but I am hoping that the gate will hold up well to the horrid winds and temperatures we get here in Wyoming!
