    couple of years ago looked into getting a new one.
    was told by a manufacturer in no uncertain terms an electric gate would be far cheaper

    so long as electricity is no biggy he is most probably correct.
    but that was for a grid that would of been able to cope with heavy trucks etc.

    sorry no help with the orginal question

    put in a cattle slat upside down works well seen it done on a lot of farms seems to do the job as well as having none of the rattles of a metal one
    you might get on with a few chips or hairline cracks that might be going cheap, but still up to the job
