    I can see this system taking a lot of hard work, and risk out of managing an awkward animal. Money well spent I say, and well demonstrated by the boss. Great video 🙂👍🏼👍🏼

    Declan - great walk through the calving gate. I hope you are on commission as I’m sure he will have orders after seeing this video. I am also pleased as it is another step forward to keeping you (all) safe. It has been drought conditions here and grass on our chalk hills was getting critical, but showers today to keep the dust down - could do with a weeks rain really. Thanks to the camera woman Laura as well. Take care, stay safe, be happy and smile. Richard x

    Some job! Bought the earlier model of the same gate a few years ago, fantastic job and major safety improvement. We put the chain on the top incase the cow goes down. The stopper you put on the sliding part move it up to the second bar it won't interfere with the backing bar then.

    Usually shorter gates here, as dad explained it's the length and how well it's made that makes this gate better and safer to use :)
