    I have a gate from O Donovan Engineering in coachford, €330 has been well tested & still going strong 4 years later. Its a semi automatic. Have seen few cheaper but firm believer in you pay for what you get.

    Suckler cows test it and tend to wasp the gate of some sort making it difficult to close it times

    Have a morris gate one year and can highly recommend one . Cattle generally put head in gate easily and gate is very strong. regards
