The Ghost Controls Wired Vehicle Sensor 55’ is the ultimate convenience accessory for automating your gate’s exit function. Unlike wireless options that rely on batteries, this wired sensor draws power directly from your gate opener system, providing a reliable, set-it-and-forget-it hands-free exit. The system works by detecting moving masses of ferrous metal—your vehicle—while ignoring people, pets, or small wildlife, minimizing false triggers. Buried 12 to 18 inches underground alongside your driveway, the 55-foot cable gives you the distance needed to position the sensor far enough away for the gate to open before you reach it.

When installing this wired sensor, make sure to place the sensor wand itself at least 20 feet away from the path of the moving gate. If it’s too close, your gate may start to close immediately after your vehicle clears the sensor, risking a collision with a following vehicle. Also, while the wand itself should not be in conduit, running the 55-foot cable within PVC conduit protects it from gophers, tree roots, and future landscaping damage.
