General Information
Yes a 12V battery is required at all times. All Ghost Controls Automatic Gate Opener Systems are battery powered. This design is inherently safer and allows the systems to be installed in almost any location in the world.
The 12V battery can be recharged with either a Ghost Controls UL Listed AC Transformer that is plugged into a 120VAC outlet OR by one or more solar panels. Ghost Controls offers a 10W Solar Panel kit with the panel, mounting pole, mount brackets, and hardware to mount the panel to a fence or post and adjust to maximize your solar charging potential. You can use up to three 10W panels or 30W in total of solar power.
Our most phone call received is customers dealing with a low battery in their system. This low battery can be caused by a number of things including:
- A tripped GFCI circuit breaker at the home on the circuit that the AC Transformer is plugged into.
- Not enough solar power charging time for your discharge rate.
- Not enough solar power charging capability (not enough solar panels) for your given installation.
For solar installations, please refer to our help guide for solar recommendations by clicking here.

No. Only Ghost Controls remote transmitters and keypads will be able to control a Ghost Controls Automatic Gate Opener System. We use a proprietary algorithm that we call GhostCode to control our system on 433.92MHz. We designed our systems this way to maximize the long range operation of your radio frequency (RF) devices so that you can open/close your gate from further away.
If you instead want to add the convenience and versatility of Ghost Controls to your existing system, we encourage you to look at our AXUR Universal Receiver Kit that would allow you to use a Ghost Controls remote and keypad with another manufacturer's access control system.
NO. 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.
No. Your gate must not use a wheel and must swing freely and level throughout the entire range of motion of the gate. If you cannot easily swing your gate by pushing/pulling on the gate from approximately 3 feet away from the hinge side of the gate, you must first fix this problem before installing an automatic gate opener system.

No.
Ghost Controls automatic gate opener systems are only for use with single-family residential applications.
DTP1, DTP1XP, and DEP2 FAQs
Please refer to the image below. This maximum rating assumes that your gate(s) swings level and freely throughout its entire range of motion, DO NOT use a wheel for support, and are not solid panel gates.

Michael D –
I wish I had done this years ago! I have wanted a gate opener since we bought our current house 12 years ago. I got an estimate of over $11,000 for a “professional” (AC) system. I didn’t want it that bad, so I put it on the bottom of the list. We just left the gates open all the time. All that changed when we recently got a dog. We needed to keep the gates closed, and needed an automatic opener, quick. So glad I bought the Ghost Opener! Works great.
Easy to install, but I have a one tip. Overall, the instructions and the videos on YouTube are great. Biggest problem I had was that the bushings (Part PBS6AA) that are supposed to go on the M10 bolts used for the Pivot Bracket (Part PIV6AA) arrived mounted on the M8 bolts intended for the Gate Mount Bracket (Part GBK6BA). I assumed that since the bushings were on those bolts, the M8 bolts were intended for the Pivot Bracket. Wrong assumption! They fit through the Pivot Brackets just fine, but were not quite long enough. I went to the hardware store and bought longer bolts, but only after struggling for a long time to get the M8 bolts on there. Then when I got to the Gate Mount Bracket, the M10 bolts wouldn’t fit through the brackets and I realized what had happened. Really slowed me down. The instructions were correct all along; I had assumed that if the bushings were shipped mounted on the M8 bolts, those were the bolts that were intended for the bushings. Wrong assumption. Read the directions. Read them again. Check all the bolts and brackets against the instructions. You will be glad you did.
