Neat. Security is at the top of any list where privacy is important.
Love your channel bub. I have a new homestead channel. We are also from Oklahoma. I also want to thank for your service as a state trooper. I hope my family gets to meet yours one day. I pray you're blessed.
I really like how your gatemaker built the A.
Great addition to Arms Family Homestead congratulations
Love hearing the birds in the background
Hello Daniel, I would suggest that you secure the pins on the arms, someone could pull the pins out and get onto your property. Just a suggestion and your Channel is FANTASTIC, keep up the great work TJ

That's the 1st thing I noticed is some one can just pull the pin and swing the gate right open. I would definitely fix that

You are one smart man to be able to do all the different things that have to be done around your house!
That gate looks awsome! Whoever designed it should get 95% of the credit!! You make everything look so easy too. Man of many talents. Well done!
She is a lucky lady having you for a husband Daniel! You are an amazing husband and father of 3 great kids and it gives us great pleasure watching your videos, thanks! 🌿🌸🌿
Good Evening to Arms Family Homestead and all others too.

I think the only thing I would have done differently would have been to mount the solar panel up on top of the frame where it would be more difficult for someone to unscrew and abscond with.

Good point, Duck Landes !!
I love arms family homestead! What an increasingly fun family! They have inspired me so much! I hope everyone who is reading this is having a great day!😃
Daniel I have a ghost system. Do yourself a favor and use a deep cycle marine battery. It will save you some frustration later. Those little batteries work ok for a while but I had to switch to a bigger one works much better now.
Daniel, I think your Daddy would be right proud of your handiwork with this gate and fence. I won’t lie and say I don’t miss the original. This turned out nicely indeed. Farming is never ending and you are always making improvements to your homestead. Y’all are certainly blessed with your family, faith and farm. A blessing indeed. Everyone have a blessed day today and every day. 🌎❤️😊
The gate looks great!
Love the gate and the "A" is so beautiful.
That gate looks nice. I'm glad to see you have a little safety between your family and any unwanteds that may want to venture down your drive!
Mr. Daniel, I am so grateful that God has blessed you and your family with all you have. Thank you for posting. Hugs from Canada. :)
Your timing on this project could not have come at a better time! Thanks, Daniel
This is definitely on our list of future upgrades on our property. Right now our kids are our “automatic gate openers” 😂

Daniel, the gate looks fantastic. Your explanation for installing the opener was very clear. That Ghost opener looks like a good product. Adding the solar panel option was a wise decision. This should provide extra privacy and security for you and your family. Dang, that sure turned out well Daniel. Great job.
Hey Daniel just a suggestion is get some rubber air hose and slit it and cut it to length and put your wires in it for added protection from the elements and weedeaters. Zip tie or electrical tape to hold in place.
The gate looks awesome. This is still the best homestead channel on KZread. Yes, I might consolidate some of the wires into a flex conduit to give them some added protection, but the project looks great. Well done.
He better put your shoulder panel on top of that post up there or somebody's going to steal it
Looks great!!! You are a jack of all trades!!
Man Bobby and JR at South Fork would have loved that gate.
Great job Daniel! Cool gate..love the "A!" Everyone needs privacy, especially folks with over half a million KZread followers!! lol Love your family! Great videos & family oriented content. Also thankful that you mention your Lord & Savior often..love that! We proudly wear our AFH t-shirts!!

Yeah, the "A" is C.O.O.L. !!
The gate looks great! Whoever fabricated it sure did a great job
Couple of questions: 1) Is your mailbox outside the gate? If so, how do you stop theft of mail and/or packages? 2) Do you get trash removal? Do you have to haul the cans outside the gate on trash day?
All Glory to the King of Kings! God bless you. I have kikos because of finding you on the youtube a few years ago
That’s a flash gate Daniel. Well done the A is a nice touch
Love that gate opener/closer !! See Daniel, you're smarter than you thought you were !! Clever man !!
So you want to keep out what my mom used to call looky-loos LOL. Yeah you're still get some but it'll slow them down anyway. Now just add a no trespassing no hunting sign. Add reflector on a stick with a stop here for people pulling up to the inside the gate to keep clear
Awesome!!!! Looks great. Glad you got it figured out. Bet Mrs. Arm's is very happy.
Nice!! Need to put a sign on the inside for visitors that don't know or understand how an automatic gate system works something like "Stop Here for Gates to Open". This way may avoid the possibility of the gates from getting damaged.
Awesome gate and what a great opening system. Very cool. Partial to that A, note my last name. Lol
I'm so happy Daniel, to see your new security gate installed. Being a popular KZread creator, I have been concerned for you and your family! There are lots of crazy people out there! Thanks Daniel for getting the new security gate to protect your family!
It looks great nice job !
Looks Great Daniel. Keeping an honest person honest 🤝 👍✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✌️👍
Very nice gate.👍 She's a smart wife.👍.
The gate looks amazing.
You are very gifted beyond your understanding. God is so good !!!!
Love the way the "A" is built into the gate
Looks fantastic !
Love love love. ❤️ The letter A looks sharp. Happy wife happy life 😂
Well at least you have quick access for when the battery is dead or not charged. Pull the lock pins on the openers and you can manually open the gates. You might want to consider putting a bolt through those openers.
Nice setup, sharp looking gate! 👍🏼🇱🇷
For those of you who may be color blind, do not try wiring this up at home 😂 I really enjoy watching your videos 👍
Excellent job getting all that stuff together to get the gate to work congratulations
WOW! That's one Nice-Lookin' Gate! Very attractive!
Ahhhh! The string method. Well, that answered the question of how you were getting the wire through. Good thinking.
We have a .3 mile long lane with grass on the fenced sides. The fences are high tensile with a Gallagher energizer that puts out 9,500 volts of jolt. Everything is topped with a hot wire, including gates. The cattle graze the lane, which eliminates mowing and the locked and electric fence/gates keep cattle rustlers away. 🤠👍 ⚡️
Great security.God bless you and your family today and always.
Glad you got your project finished. I know it feels good
Love the gates! Whoever made then did an awesome job with the A!
That is really great workmanship on the gate. Love the split 'A'. Very sharp sir.
Been waiting for the video! We just installed our ghost controls two weeks ago. We don’t mind leaving the property now! No more getting out. I installed a cable to increase range on remote. Getting 985 foot from gate to house now.
Congrats good sir. The Gate! is proud and not overstated. Artwork on your crest between the gate folds. Impressive. I guess you searched inside for a smith. I'd like to suggest you later add to your security, the instruments be fit within a safe box, elevate your solar up , since you can take use of your 14 ft road clearance. Very Nice!
Your Dad taught you the importance of self sufficiency as my Dad did. You do things that most people have to hire to be done. I LOVE LOVE your channel. Keep on living the dream !!! I'm envious !!
Nice Security Gate. Congratulations ! Now You Will Have More Protection Than You Already Have. Stay Safe
I was wondering how this turned out. Looks fantastic and worth every penny for piece of mind. Congrats Daniel and fam!
Great video, nice job. Little tip on buried conduct tie light weight string to a smaller foam ball then the ID use a vacuum to suck that thru and pull a larger rope thru to pull wires.
Love the videos guys.
Mannnnn I love these videos and getting this notification from arms family home stead
I always use a piece of plastic bag attached to the string and a vacuum to suck the line through. That way you can bury the line and run the string later. I also use poly twine because it won’t ever break when pulling.
Woo hoo..now that is a doosey of an opener. My daddy's idea of an automatic gate was one of his 4 boys getting out to open the gate.👍😁
That gate is fabulous looking Daniel. 😃
Looks great. I dream of the day when I put a fence and gates across the front of my property.
It seems as though you would want the gate opening when you are coming from the house to start sooner so you don't have to wait as long. You all may have more patience than I
Love the new addition. That gate is super nice!! I stumbled across your videos a few days ago, and I cannot stop watching. I love the farm life!! Your family is so inspirational!!!!!
You’re a pretty handy guy to have around, Daniel! And that gate is really nice!
Daniel: Have you considered using a trench, berm and boulder system? Trench a drainage ditch 15" or more deep and 24"-36" wide outside the weak areas of fence, piling the dirt from the ditch behind the ditch creating a berm between the trench and fence. Large boulders placed in remaining weak spots further curtail access, they work really well between large trees. This system will bottom-out or high center almost any vehicle. the 15" ditch and 15" berm creates a 30" high obstacle. This is project only requires a little planning, and time but little money. If you change your mind or need to access areas using the system, just push the berm back into the ditch and move the boulders. Easy to install, easy to remove. Blessing to you. Tell Houston hello. He's a great kid.
Great job looking good security always important. Thanks. Chris from England.
Every time the beeping started my cat growled. LMAO! Looks good!
The song birds all around your property are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! ♫♪♫♪
Check out the locks for where the openers connect to the gate. Those Carter keys easy to remove and just push the gates open. Just a little more security...
Daniel you need to put a lock on each gate opener through one of the pens, those are to simple for someone to unclip cut the wires and take your openers. Take it from someone who use to build and install electric gates. People would even unpen an opener and drive into someone property so they had to put a lock at each end of there motors so that no one could unpen them and drive in.
Well the string in the tube is the same way we used to retread elastic through waistbands in clothes, still works!! I see.
Beautiful it has the A in it. That looks great
Love the design, awesome.
The gate opens slow but you can fix that extend the sensor 50 feet away from the gate this way it will give time for the gate it's fully open.

@@ronsommer9409 yes, I know that I just referring to the wife common that opens too slow so instead of putting the sensor at 50 ft from the gate it should be 100ft 200ft he has to figure out how fast he's going in the driveway! And at what point he gets there he or she won't wait on the gate to fully open! or you can just wait for 30 seconds 😄
I love the gate and everything about it. I used to live in a gated community and felt the gate gave us just a little more security. This is great for you and the family.
David your videos are the best especially the fishing
Thanks for all the help honey punch... No problem
Love the gate. Absolutely beautiful!
Thanks bro I appreciate you making videos....... JJ...
Love the gate!! Very classy ❤
If you forget feeding the pull line through the conduit first, tie a small piece of rag to the end of some fishing line and put into one end of the conduit, then put a vacuum cleaner hose over the over end of the conduit. The vacuum pulls the rag and fishing line through the conduit, then use the fishing line to pull the wires back. If the wires are too much for the fishing line, use it to pull a stronger pull line through, then use that for the wire pull.
Hey Daniel, in today's world you can never have too much security. You done a nice job on wiring everything together, now you can rest a little bit easier knowing you have the front covered. So whats next for AFH keep up the good work and see you in the next video😉
I love your new entrance gate. I need one at the entrance of my cabin in the mountains!
Great looking gate . Thanks for sharing. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you and your family.
That's one hell of a nice looking gate👍
Your dad would be proud congratulations
Awesome gate! You did a great job Daniel !!!
looks great danny happy for you all
👏👏👍 The gate looks great. The timing looks good also. 👋👏 Be well and God bless. 👍🙏☝️
I'm loving the A. Looks sharp.
Can I give you some constructive suggestions? 1) put something more secure like a welded pin instead of the clip pin on your gates. 2) move your solar panel back inside your property. Keeps kids from driving by and ripping it off and tearing off your bars too.
How nice looking gate! Neat.
Looks great! So glad you have that security gate now!
