Customer Reviews for VEVOR Electric Gate Opener, Single Swing Gate Opener 16mm/s Speed 50W Automatic Gate Openers with Remote Complete Kit Push/Pull-to-Open Up to 551lbs & 16.4ft Door Opener for Chain Link Garage Farm

I have been using Mighty Mule openers for a very long time and was never happy with them. The reliability just wasn't there. 3 years maximum longevity without issues. Now they have gotten ridiculously priced. I don't need or want to pay for Wifi on my opener. Came across these and decided to give it a try. It took a little extra work, as I am a bit of a perfectionist and modified the installation slightly. Not wanting to run the 120 volt feed outdoors, I removed the power supply from the factory housing and mounted it in a 6X6 electrical enclosure, then remotely mounted that indoors. This yielded several positives. 1) More convenient access to an existing outlet. 2) Reduced the cost of wiring by using a 14 ga. UV rated low voltage wire run to the controller. 3) Placed the receiver directly at the gate. 4) More space in the controller for excess wire and connections. 5) Maintained short cable runs for the Photocell beams and operators. Multiconductor sprinkler wire was a great option for extending the second operators cable. (in stock at Home Depot) Connections were made in a weathertight single gang electrical box. Due to my gates mounting, the pivot arms needed to be modified longer. This was accomplished by cutting and drilling the old ones, then bolting the new ones to them. It worked out great and actually allows for @ 100 degrees of swing when opening, with no additional load on the motors. The operates are incredibly smooth and quiet. The release key is a great feature! It allows for keeping the gates wide open on days when lots of work is being done and the gates are left open for convenience. The included photocells are a great feature as well. They are easy to install and wire and don't require any frustrating critical alignments. I wish I good say the same for the ones on my garage door opener (Genie). One area with room for improvement is the availability of additional remotes and the style of the remotes. A single button remote that clips to the visor would be the ideal style, but I couldn't find anything that worked with this operator. Ultimately, I ended up cloning the original remotes with ones I found on Amazon. I purchased and returned 3 different other remotes that claimed to work but didn't. It was very frustrating. (this and the lack of a supplied power cord are the only reasons that I rated 4, not 5, stars on the features) I included the link to the remotes below. You may need to copy and paste. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7VS8S7S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Overall, these operates work great and have all the features I need, including the safeties. (I don't need Wifi) Cost effective and simple Installation was very easy, even with my additional customizations. Time will tell as to reliability.

I've used Topens and Mighty Mule and the Vevor is by far the best dual gate opener I have used. It has a superior control board that allows for very specific settings which the others don't have. So, far I have been impressed.

Can't beat these openers for the price. Works great and very strong. A little slow, but beats the heck out of getting out and opening the gate.

Just got it so know nothing about quality, easy to install but complicated to pair remotes to it. Can't get a key pad to connect

Still in the box, I will be setting it up within a month. It looks like it should be a good gate opener.

Unit works way better than the mighty mule. Do not order spare remotes from vevor. Even though they look the same they are for their sliding gate operators, not the swing gate operators. Order the spare remotes from Topens website. Love the system though.

Nice system, good heavy duty hardware. I could not find extra remote units on the Vevor web site or the wireless key pad. Ordered keypad and remote and they did not work with this swing gate system. I had to find them on www.Topens.com web site and Amazon I found a Homeland Keypad the worked with this swing gate system. I added 4 Topens remote controllers and the Homeland keypad.

If you’re attaching this gate opener to a large post, you’ll have to make some slight adjustments for the gate to open and close correctly. But it’s a great buy.

good morning i have the problem with a remote control sometimes work i replace the battery is the same!!

The remote to open the gate is not designed well. We would have liked to be able to set the remote to open each gate separately, one on A, one on B, both together on C, & D to remain open until we choose to close. In order to leave open, you have to manually do it, which defeats the purpose of having an automatic opener/closer. The features of the remote would just need to be inhanced a bit. As far as the product itself, it is well worth the money.
