Electric gate, bell and opener, and only one cable

No, the cable is simply coiled up under/in the split (or even a bit further down) and would need to be pulled about 5-6 meters forward from the current position to the later gate or the driveway.


Edit: what exactly does further cables mean? Can't you go through a junction box for the other consumers? I would want to keep it as uncomplicated as possible...

Now it's too late anyway, but why do people do it like that?
Are you sure there is no pipe further down? No pictures of the installation?
How many cores does the cable have?
Branch off power for the doorbell. If there is enough space in the gate, you can install it there.
Usually, the gate manufacturer provides exact specifications. For the other gate wing or light barrier, a conduit is simply laid and routed from the main side over.

Absolutely sure that there is no pipe down below. I think you mean a conduit? I need to ask my electrician what he laid there....

Here you can see the cable under the ladder, which looks quite thick and then goes out to the left through the KG pipe

@11ant a single-leaf folding gate? Sounds interesting, as that would presumably eliminate cable pulling to the 2nd post?

Yes, that would then be a passive/dumb stop.

There are also wheel gate drives. They go up to 7m wing length, 150kg, and then you only need one. I just don’t know if you have enough space for such a large gate.
