Solid Surface Gates

Can I use it on a solid panel/privacy gates?

1. We do not recommend the use of any post-mount gate opener system, Ghost Controls or other manufacturers, on solid panel gates (also known as privacy gates).  These gates can get caught by the wind, act like a sail, and exert an exceptionally large force onto the entire system which will damage the system and void the warranty of your opener.  No more than 30% of the surface area of your gate can be solid in order to use a Ghost Controls gate opener system.
