Video Description:
When you have a gate and want to install a mechanical keyless gate lock, you can run into all kinds of problems.

The easiest-to-use gate locks, those using hardware like on your house, and most keyless gate locks will require you modify your gate by installing a gate box the will need to be welded to the gate to support whatever type of gate lock you want to install. This is because the gate posts aren't wide enough to support the locks that are available on the market.

You also can't use most electronic keyless gate locks, because residential electronic locks are designed to be waterproof on only one side of the lock. This makes mechanical keyless gate locks the way to go.

But, this little, mechanical keyless lock can be easily installed as a DIY keyless gate lock. Made by Lockey it will allow you to easily modify the gate and enter by pressing the gate code.

This is not a heavy-duty lock. It's targeted application is to secure cabinets. We've found it work great for keyless entry on house side gates, but we would not recommend it when a high-level of security it needed. On a home if someone really wants in, they can just jump the gate, so high-security locks aren't really practical. That makes this lock perfect for a DIY keyless gate lock installation so long as you don't require a self latching gate lock.
