Thunderbird Spring Gate Kit

Secure your property and manage livestock with a no-fuss solution designed for Australian conditions. The Thunderbird 5m Electric Fence Spring Gate Kit provides a practical and dependable way to create an access point in your electric fencing system. Ideal for gateways up to five metres wide, this all-in-one kit is engineered for convenience and durability. Forget the hassle of sourcing individual components; this kit arrives pre-assembled and ready for a straightforward installation. At its core is a robust 50mm spring that provides excellent tension and retracts smoothly, ensuring your fence line remains secure when the gate is closed. The kit includes everything you need to connect to your existing wooden posts: a comfortable, smooth grip handle for easy daily use, a versatile 3-way gate anchor for a solid connection, and a high-quality wood post pinlock insulator to maintain the integrity of your electric circuit. This complete package is the perfect choice for farmers and property owners who need a reliable, easy-to-install gate that stands up to the demands of rural life, offering convenient access without compromising on security or performance. Its the simple, effective way to control movement through your paddocks.

Install the Thunderbird TB51 by attaching one end to your fence post using the supplied bracket and the other end to your gate. Thread the live wire through the handle's conductive section so contact is maintained as the gate moves. Adjust the spring tension so the gate returns smoothly without slamming, then test the circuit with your energiser to confirm continuity before letting stock through. Tips: Check your spring tension regularly, especially after a few months of use—gates that swing too freely will lose electric contact and stock will learn to push through. Keep the conductive surfaces clean and dry; a bit of corrosion on the handle connection will kill your circuit faster than you'd think. Always install this on the live side of your fence so animals get a jolt when they push through uninvited.
