desertcart.com: GC GHOST CONTROLS Heavy-Duty Automatic Gate Opener Kit for Swing Gates with Long-Range Gate Opener Remote - Model TDS2 : Tools & Home Improvement

Review: Good system. - I bought this system to replace a mighty mule 362 dual gate system that had malfunctioned. The 362 gate arms are no longer available - so I really had no way to fix the old system and looked into what would be the best replacement at a reasonable price. I like that the Ghost Controls system has a lifetime warranty, and that they are made in the USA in Florida. The install took me about 4 hours, but it greatly helped that I was a bit knowledgeable having a prior dual opener system on this same gate, and was able to use the mounting plate from that gate. This definitely saved time. I like the design of the cover for the control box where it just slides on and off. I do find it odd that you have to drill your own mounting holes in the box but it does make sense to not provide extra unused holes for water or insect penetration. One odd thing is the installation manual indicates that page 18 shows "Tools required" for install, but when you go to that page, or any other page near it, there is no mention of any tools. I needed a power drill, tape measure, tiny screwdriver (they provide one), Phillips screwdriver, 3/8" ratchet set, set of drill bits (I believe I used 1/2" and 3/8"), pick-axe for the cable from the 2nd arm and some conduit. Note that if you are going to use the plug-in transformer instead of a solar panel to provide power, you will need to provide your own 16 gauge wire for it. This gate opener works faster than the mighty mule it replaced. The arms are also a little longer, necessitating me moving the arm mounting bracket forward about 10", but this also lets the system open the gate further rather than the 90 degrees that I was limited to with the old system. You must provide your own deep-cycle battery as the gate actually runs off the battery, and the transformer keeps the battery charged. This lets the gate still operate when the power goes out. The system does have a separately purchased option to enable internet/wifi access so you can open & close via an app, but I had already come up with a way on the old gate to do this with a wifi garage door switch from Meross and that ended up much cheaper than the price of the separate Ghost Controls unit. Overall the system seems robust and moves my gate smoothly. I am happy with the purchase.
Review: Reliable product. Well worth the price! - Great quality! We've had this opener for 8 months now and it hasn't messed up even once. It is super durable and easy to use. It was easy to install ourselves and works like a dream. I feel very secure knowing that we have this product controlling entrance to our property. The speed of opening is good and you can program how long it stays open. We also purchase the vehicle sensor and it works beautifully. As soon as we get to the spot where the sensor is buried, the gate opens automatically. This makes exiting the property easy for ourselves and our guests.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this compatible with the Homelink opener that is already built into my car? I tried programming it for about 30 minutes, but had no luck.**
A: I was unable to program either one of my two Toyota Camry (2007 and 2018) Homelink systems to work with our new Ghost Controls gate system. Used two different remotes that worked on their own. Spent about 30-45 minutes, followed the instructions exactly, kept the buttons pressed until they timed out on their own -- at least 2 minutes -- no sign of recognitiion by the Homelink systems. My Genie garage door opener signals were previously cloned on both cars without difficulty, and continue to work.

**Q: How fast will it open**
A: The answer to this question depends entirely on the amount of angle that you're opening and closing. Mine, for a 90° angle, takes approximately 8 to 10 seconds to fully open and a little bit longer than that to fully close as one side begins closing a couple seconds before the other side...(safety and incase there is an overlap lip on the gate). Open 10 seconds close 14 seconds.

**Q: can you use a 12 volt marine battery?**
A: Any 12-volt battery may work however a 12-volt marine battery may be too large to fit in a standard battery box housing. If you're using the ghost control battery housing you can fit two12-volt by 8-ah batteries which is perfect for a double gate. If you're only using one gate you would only need one 12V 8AH battery. And you can set it up for either solar charging or hardwire operation with battery backup.

**Q: Can i salvage any of my current gto installation parts if i switch to ghost? namely wired sensor, call box key pad, battery, push to open brackets.**
A: Yes, you can salvage some of the items listed including the battery and the wired vehicle sensor.  The keypad and push-to-open brackets are not compatible with Ghost Controls.  We operate on a different frequency and use a double-shear rear mount so these items will not work with Ghost Controls.  Thank you for your interest.  We are here to assist you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My GHOST Story II
*by R***C on June 8, 2025*

My Ghost Story II This is our second Ghost Solar Power Dual Gate controller with a keypad. The first was 5 years ago and we have never been happier. The new upgraded controller allows for you to add the Ghost Controls Multi Connect Kit which we did. Now I can open both gates from anywhere, nice! This was for a dual (2 gate) chain-link swing gate which was a little different with a round post instead of square. We have added several things to our system like: Battery boxes, solar, keypads, magnetic vehicle sensors and many remotes. Installation: was relatively simple. Following the instructions, both from the manual and videos made everything very easy. You can make a lot of adjustments after the installation (jog one gate in or out, intensity, etc.). I chose to use one of my extra fence posts to mount the controller. I installed the solar to the top of the post and ran the wire in the post to exit out by the controller. I also purchased a battery box and installed it on the post below the controller. The Ghost battery box sticks out just a little bit further than the control box which makes it easy to remove the cover. Appearance: This is a very sleek design. The opener arms look great, sleek, on rust or discoloration after 5 years. The control box has some fade, but to be expected sitting outside in the Florida sun. Function: Everything worked great from the start. We did have an issue about 2 years in which one arm did not open. I believe possible wiring. I was pulling my hair out until I called tech support. They ran me through some test and then sent out another arm ASAP. No hesitation, I was impressed. Pros: The remotes work from over 100’ away. Other openers you have to be very close to open the gate with the remote. Very upgradeable. We did have to buy a new circuit board for the older GHOST when we added the Ghost Controls Multi Connect. Now we can be camping and still let someone in the gate as needed. Easy to adjust settings. Jog one or the other in or out with a touch of a button. We keep a little tension when one gate closes on the other. This keeps the gate from swaying with the wind. Very easy to adjust the tension. Multiple ways to use keypad code, one time code, limited access code (time of day, day of week, etc.), guest code. Party mode keeps the gate open until you activate the party button a second time. Customer and tech support is great and very responsive. Cons: This a little bit of both, the remote signal is encrypted (Pro) so you need a specific remote. There are a few aftermarket remotes out there but you can’t add another garage or other device to the remote (Con). From time to time the gates don’t align. Sometimes just allowing the gate to open fully and letting it close on its own will fix it. Periodically I have to re-adjust the gate. Tips: Especially read the main bracket installation and expect to have to reassemble. I had to do this on both gate installs. At first tighten only to hold it in place. After you are sure you have it where you want it then tighten as needed. Call customer/tech support when you have an issue. I have pulled my hair out thinking I could figure things out (I usually can). They are there, they don’t seem to mind and are much faster (less hair loss). We have and will purchase again
