I’d like to put solid panel gates in for security on an equipment lot. Can the estate series handle 10’ wide solid?

Gate panels will be steel with cedar fence slats to match my cedar fence. I plan to do shadow box slats to reduce wind resistance but keep privacy.

We do not recommend the use of any post-mount gate opener system, Ghost Controls or other manufacturers, on solid panel gates (also known as privacy gates). These gates can get caught by the wind, act like a sail, and exert an exceptionally large force onto the entire system which will damage the system and void the warranty of your opener. No more than 30% of the surface area of your gate can be solid in order to use a Ghost Controls gate opener system.
