# Electric Gate Restoration This project was started in April 2022 and the objective of this project was to restore an exterior electric gate that had not worked for over 15 years. ### Table of contents [[_TOC_]] ### Context In my yard, there has always been an electric gate that I have seen work very few times, if ever. I decided to repair it as I felt I had the DIY and electronic skills to get it working again. This courtyard gives access to different houses and the access to it is therefore shared. This implies that the operation of the latter must be low, easy and without constraint. ### Choice of technologies #### Hardware For this project, I had the opportunity to make my own electronic board in order to build a reliable, clean and easy to install system.
