The left leaf of the driveway gate style 33, featuring the cresting, or Roman Ogee arching top rail and hinge stile profiles
As an embedded steel gate, the top of the left stile features a 1″ pin welded to the inner frame and rising proud to fit the site-provided pivot plate.
On the bottom, the plate with its 1″ dia. pin is welded to the inner frame and will correspond to the pivot plate of the in-ground motor

Complicated.
Our wood driveway gates with the embedded steel frames are complicated to build, and insistent on aligning the various pivot pins to the specs of the in-ground motor housings to 1/32″ tolerance, lest the gates swing out of alignment and stress the motor bearings.

But . . . the advantage, to some, is the ability to feature a wood gate that spans an opening of any width, without exposing the steel frames, nor the visibility of cumbersome, above-ground motors.

With In-Ground automation, the motors are concealed below the stone directly beneath the gates. Whereas the traditional motors are mounted on a concrete pad just inside each gate post. A visual expression of approximately 28″ x 24″.

In-ground: The FAAC 770 is the manufacturer most automation contractors prefer.
