What Customers Are Saying
The product has mixed reviews. While some found it easy to install and appreciated the added security, many reported issues with the lock's performance in windy conditions, including the lock not properly releasing or engaging, causing the gates to get stuck. Compatibility problems with certain gate systems were also noted, requiring additional modifications. The lock's latch design was considered not secure enough, as it could be easily bypassed. However, the lock was satisfactory for some when installed correctly and in calm weather, helping stabilize the gates. Overall, the product has significant limitations that make it unsuitable for many customers' needs.

Easy to install and was recognized automaticity. Issue is the lock mechanism gap isn’t wide enough to accommodate daily expansion and contraction of our metal gate. From cold mornings to hot afternoons. So at the extremes the lock and catch don’t align and do t allow the gate to close or open. Works great other then it’s lock opening is to small to accommodate metal gate expansions

Great System
Great system once you dial in the closing/stopping point of the gate leaves. I have a dual gate opener so mounting the zombie lock was a little tricky since the latch doesn’t stay motionless on a post for the gate leaf to meet it. Both the latch and the mechanism are on the ends of my dual tube gates. So lining them up vertically and horizontally along with the stopping points of both gate leaves was a little tricky. But once I got it all adjusted, it works flawlessly. Super convenient for keepi...

Does not work
We have our gate arm WELDED in place(after confirming we had the ABSOLUTE PERFECT limit set for the zombie lock) and it still doesn’t work! The receiver is also welded in place and not moving. The zombie lock worked for 2 days and now bc the gate is moving EVER SO SLIGHTLY it misses the latch, every.single.time. SOOOOO disappointing bc our dogs just push through the gate without the zombie lock. We can push it or hold it still in the receiver and get it to lock, but then when you get home you h...
