You'll probably have to have somebody help you to hack the electronics.
There's a zillion guys around who do this kind of stuff. Even a magazine or
two. Find them...

You could add a timer to the circuitry. Set it for what ever minutes after
opening the gate to close automatically.
As a trucker, I've been to many warehouses that use automatic gates. Pull up
to a certain point, the gate opens. After passing through, it closes
automatically.

You can just add a timer to the circutiry. His solution will either involved
someone experienced with electronics, or a whole new system.
Also your automatic gates at a warehouse is not done on a timer, but rather
sensors.

Curt,

Take a look at the following link:

http://www.cartell.com/Products/Products.htm

Give them a call. They can advise you as to which product will fit your
needs and, if necessary, possibly provide you with the name of someone who
can assist you with installing it.

Depending upon your gate electronics, you should be able to integrate this
into your gate system and eliminate having to manually activate it when
exiting. Once triggered, a timer should close the gate afterwards. You'll
need to check into that for clarification though.

Hope this helps.

Peter.
